I think life is perfect.

I really do.

I believe so for many different reasons. Like… recently for example, just when I was starting to think that I might have seen every single cheesecake type and variety in the world I stumbled upon this wonderful recipe and a whole new cheesecake dimension opened up before my eyes.

The method…

2. In a bowl of your electric mixer, beat the butter until light and fluffy.

Oh my gosh, you need to see this. And be prepared for some real fun.

I was laughing and crying at the same time.

The real show begins at about 1 minute and 20 seconds.

Enjoy!

It’s cold outside baby, let’s make a delicious scarf.

This is what I thought after I’d noticed lovely skeins of thick and soft green yarn in my local craft shop. The ideas started brewing really quickly, and when I spotted the wonderful wooden buttons in one of the aisles, I could see the project perfectly clearly…

A Crocheted Chain Scarf…
