Flowers

Now the bunnies are eating all of my sisters flowers in her flower beds. So I wanted to make her a flower, but as usuall my husband likes it and wants to put it up on the tv stand. So now I need to make more flowers but they are cute. I wouldn't mind having a few on the tv stand, just to brighten up the place. I shall make blue and purple ones and what ever other colour I have in my stash.

Bunnies

Well I finished a second bunny and I even went outside with the camera to see if I could find the rabbits, what do you know when I go looking for them I don't see them and every other time I went out without the camera there they are hopping around. I did manage to get a picture of a small rabbit out near the swing look close in the picture to see him.

Little Bunny

Here we have alot of rabbits running around out in the yard, yes wild ones. My sister lives next door to me and says I am always scaring the bunnies, so I decided to make one for here so she could have one that will never run away. But my hubby likes it so he claimed it now I need to make another one for her. Good thing I didn't tell her that I was making it for her she might be upset. No need to worry I can make up a new one tonight.

HPIM0470

Maybe I will pick out different colours for hers. Enjoy Your day and God Bless.

Not much Happening in my world

Just thought I would put in a little post to let all you readers know that I am still here and not much happening.

I do have socks on the needles and the lovely sweater that I won from old mill knitting just have the first ball done and my size calls for 6 balls so 5 more to go. I also have the swap package on my needles but I will have to wait until I send it of to my partner to let you all see that or even tell you what it is.

Now for the pictures of what I am up to this morning. Not much but a lot of hard work. We picked 8 baskets yesterday and now they are in the pot cooking for jam. We must have eating a whole basket by now everyone just loves strawberries. We also got a basket of wild blueberries just one little 3lt basket and my hubby like to eat them with cream. We want to get more but the lady we bought them from says there are not alot out there so we will get what we can. I would like to make blueberry spread if I can get enough.

HPIM0464

Don't they look good. I still need to clean 3 more baskets. I will just put them into the freezer for the winter months when we can't get them fresh. We like to make milkshakes and yogurt drinks from them. Now I am off to jar the jam they are all done cooking, have yourself a great day and God Bless.
