Madame Purl

So I know this is a knitting blog, but boy am I finding it hard to chase after a puppy and do the knit thing lately.  Plus I’ve been so tired.  It didn’t help that Sunday I decided to power wash the parts of the house siding I could reach.  Although it was really nice to walk out on the front porch and it was spider free.  Mostly.  They’ve already started to move back in.

Anyway I thought I break the bread maker out again and give it a whirl.  This was so-so tasting.  However, it does look pretty.

I sliced it thin for a sandwich, but it was a bit too yeasty or maybe it was the sunflowers.  It was sunflower and flax seed.  It could’ve been the flax seed.  Anyway - taste was just ok.

One really nice creation was the waffles that DH made.  Gorgeous and tasty.  I sliced the strawberries.  DH also ordered the maple syrup from Two Pigs Farm.  Light and flavorful.  Sorry it’s already sold out.  Have to wait for next year.

So I thought I knit it more since the last picture… then I realized I did, but then ripped it.  I put the brown in and it just didn’t work, so again I ripped it back a bit. I think the light blue looks better, much better.

I’m hoping to make some more progress tonight.
