baked beans and other delicacies

While wandering around the wonderful world of crafty blogs I noticed a culinary theme developing among some of you crafty ladies. And I'm sure this has been going on for years, it's only now that I've noticed it!

It seems that crafty + cooking = one all-round crafty dude!

So I got thinking... what could I do to contibute to this timeless trend.


Introducing... *drumroll*... baked beans on toast!




I'll admit, i hate cooking. But I was rather impressed with myself. Considering I don't own a microwave or toaster, all was done on the stove and grill. Whats better than a home-cooked, piping-hot lunch for a dreary Saturday?

I love baked beans!!!

I guess theres a little bit of Shane Warne in all us Aussies!




In other news... a little bit of knitting...

Umbilical cord beanie



for one of two bubs on the way. Knit in Katia Mexico on 5mm dpns. I might have enough yarn left in the ball to scab another one.

and

hello yarn skull tote (frogged)



eww, ugly intarsia. I ended up frogging this and redoing it on smaller needles. Much nicer. Its nearly finished, just cleaning up and weaving in intarsia, making handles, and then felting *tada* Photos of FO later. Stay tuned.....
