Stuffies and Stiches

Attempting a blog post while my children are awake is like trying to fold clothes, or make a phone call, or bake bread, or take a nap, while my children are awake.  Not happening.  Well, not in one sitting.  They have a sixth sense when it comes to activities that involve their mother's concentration or comfort or To Do list.  MUTINY!

Okay, back to the blog post.  My parents were here last weekend, and though it was frightfully cold and windy, we managed to make it to three beaches and eat seafood!  Anthony's Seafood does take-out!  We had "stuffies", lobster rolls, and salmon burgers.  I think William only ate the French fries.  But, he'll get there.

I've been exploring different kinds of crochet stitches.  I usually have an idea of what I want to do, but, rarely know how it's going to turn out.  Madeleine's new hat turned out... like a tea cozy.  Yup.  Fluffy and pink.  But, she liked it!
