My best friend brought me a bowl of fun-size Snickers that she raided from her kids' Halloween stash. Apparently, she hates me.

I should be helping my kids finish their schoolwork from this past week; but instead I am letting them play Monopoly in the family room while I blog and tweet (and, um, eat fun-size Snickers) upstairs. That is just all kinds of wrong.

Did I mention I let them have candy when they land on Free Parking?

Maybe I should give them the Snickers.

I've been indulging my inner crocheter lately, in a desperate attempt to finish a newborn baby blanket for a grand-nephew who is already over 2 months old. So my friend Carol (she of the ascerbic wit) went all knitting-snob on me and accused me (ON FACEBOOK) of succumbing to the lure of crocheted toilet paper covers. Now, tell me - was a public shaming really necessary?
***************
Just wait 'til she sees this crocheted cow toaster cover I'm making...
That bucket is a nice touch, isn't it? Lends authenticity to the crochet motif, I'm thinking. But why does it say "Moo?" In case we didn't realize we were looking at a cow? And since when does a cow milk herself anyway?
********************
Okay, don't google crochet toaster cover images - things get really weird really fast. Maybe Carol is right and I should pull myself back from the brink before it's too late.

Is that really a crochet-covered smart car? Someone really has too much time on their hands. I suppose it could be worse - could be a Suburban.
ReplyDeleteThat Smart car is definitely taking it a little too far. Maybe it should be painted to look like a Snickers bar?
ReplyDeleteOMG! That Smart car is hilarious! Have you got an idea where I could get the instructions to make one for my own car? Winter is coming fast here!
ReplyDeleteI'll swap you my kit*kats for your snickers. I stole all my kid's and I seriously have just about made myself sick.
ReplyDeleteSo of course when you said, don't google it, I did. lol. What is with the one that looks like a toaster, with toast coming out. A bit redundant, don't you think? lol
ReplyDeleteBut that car looks so Smart-ly at-tired!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, thanks to you, I found myself lost in googleville and came across instructions on how to make polymer-clayed crochet hooks: http://www.tapestrycrochet.com/blog/?p=398
ReplyDeleteSo you're a hooker now. Hmph.
ReplyDeleteSaw this and thought of you... http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2010/11/clean-out-your-fridge-day.html
ReplyDeleteHere are some cool Angry Bird Beanies to wear while driving the car.
