This week is pretty busy which is nice after a low key weekend. We spent much of the weekend outside and I channeled Martha (Stewart) by cleaning the (inside and) outside of all our downstairs windows. I did the rest of the windows upstairs yesterday. For a few hours of effort there was a huge impact and I am committing to doing this twice a year.
I also spent some time baking various foccocia's this weekend. I was trying to perfect my recipe before a baby shower on Saturday and I think I succeeded. I am baking 3 breads for the shower and making various infused oils and compound butters as toppings.
I made some relaxing bath salts as shower favors this week and I need to jar them this week. I would like to purchase little scoops to attach to the jars but I am having trouble locating something suitable. Anyone have any suggestions?
Also on the schedule this week is finishing up some UFO's and starting some more projects. I am feeling a bit of knitting pressure as I just added 4 more projects to my holiday queue. They are all small and for Kennedy but they require deadlines nonetheless. I would love to knit this little guy for Thanksgiving but I do not have the proper yarn or the time, maybe next year. I do have another yarn related project this week but since it is part of my gifts, I will say no more. It is a great stash buster, a good way to use scraps and I will give more details when the time is right.
What are you busy doing this week?
This site seems to have some nice wooden scoops for bath salts.
