Stocking Cap

by

Really, it’s a cap with a stocking on it . . . how much fun can that be? Well, just ask Lessa:

She looks like she is enjoying it. Her honey would have loved it - and I would have had to give it to him and make something else for her if he was still with us - or make a mathcing pair. ;)

She like sit so much she told a friend of hers about it and now I am making one for HER, too! Her friend J wants it in yellow. I’ve already had to rip it out once because I got it twisted when I joined the circle - didn’t realize it until I had about 6 rows done. Ah, well. I can frog as well as the next person.

So, by now you are all tired of the ham and turkey leftovers, right? Well, do a pot luck Thursday with Rachael Ray! You just GOTTA love pot luck, right?

Speaking of which - I have the most awesome sisters in Christ! They have been spoling hubby and me since my surgery - bringing in meals. Tonight I have a turkey and rice casserole simmering in the oven thanks to my pastor’s wife! These lovely women wanted to bring in meals EVERY night, but I asked them to cut it back to only every other night. There are only the two of us - and well, food seems to go a lot further with only two in the house.

But, man, can they ever cook! We’ve had chicken divan and a fish casserole and chicken and rice and one couple brought dinner in already plated up - pork chops with baby potatoes, carrots and asparagus. Yummo!

Sunday someone brought a chicken stew - Christmas was skipped because of Lessa, the Girl and the neighbors cooking - and then tonight the turkey and rice casserole.

Now you might be wondering at the “no beef” appearing in any of the meals. My hubby cannot stomach beef any longer. I still love it, but we don’t eat it because it just roils up and spoils in his tummy. Nobody should be near when that happens. ;)

Hope you are enjoying your after the holiday glow. Take care, eveyone.

About Knitting Passion

Is knitting really a passion? On THIS blog it is - for all who come here. Blog entries will be made up of patterns, photos of in-progress or completed work - off the wall discussions about whatever tickles the author's fancy (Survivor Knitting anyone?). This can be as much YOUR blog as it is the current author's. Questions will be entertained and answers sought diligently. Comments are always welcome - and information ALWAYS appreciated. Will there be stories and pictures of the stash of yarn or the duplicated knitting needles? Will there be more off the wall ideas for knitting? Will there be original patterns or freebies cited? Only the dark of night and the author's amount of caffeine or sleep can determine that.

Ready? ONE - TWO - GET SET - KNIT!
