“It’s easier to have a positive baking experience when one follows the recipe a little more closely” is what I told my daughter last night while she was complaining about her Christmas tree cut out cookies that that kind of melted in the oven. I wonder why?? Could it be that she was making shortbread cookies and cutting out shortbread doesn’t work? As I gently tried to suggest to her before she put them in the oven. They tasted good just didn’t look like Christmas trees. …in such a hurry. Ah well I guess she’ll figure it out.
10 on Tuesday said to list 10 ways to save money. Hmmm, my first thought was “buy less yarn?” but I’m thinking I should reconsider that. If I buy less yarn then I won’t have anything to knit with, hence I’ll get really cranky and perhaps even depressed. So then I’ll have to buy drugs to help me get un-depressed and see a therapist for my depression and heaven knows that isn’t cheap. I’ve decided thinking of ways to save money is counter-productive and I’m not going to do that anymore—at least not where yarn is concerned.
