Nothing

I have nothing to update with. I'm working on a few things. But mostly everything is in progress. I hope to have a cross stitch done sometime this weekend. At which point, I can start on a cross stitch design of my own. It will make absolutely no sense to most people, but be fairly hilarious to Ravelry Rubberneckers. I was inspired by a cross stitch sampler that was "Internet" themed to make a Rubbernecker themed sampler. Hopefully it works out. I am having trouble deciding what color I want the background to be.

One thing I have finished, I can't show. Although it is only 1/2 of a pair, it is also a Christmas present. I just hope it fits. And look at me working on Christmas presents in September. I think I'll only have about 7 presents to make this year. I don't think it will be quite so crazy this year.

I went to the Greek Festival today. Spanakopita and Flogeres for the win. Mostly because they are like the only things I will attempt to pronounce. And the gyro line was about 45 minutes long. I did get some roast lamb. Although the mixed pastries box will keep me very very happy for a while. Nom, nom, nom...

I lied! Speaking of Nom noms, I made my chocolate covered caramel apples. They are so tasty. I get granny smith apples (the tartness goes really well with how sweet the toppings are). I use the caramel wraps from walmart (much easier than dipping into caramel, less prep and less mess). Then I get the chocolate wafers from AC Moore and dip them in. The first one is dipped in milk chocolate then rolled in pecans and then milk and white chocolate was drizzled on it. The second one is dipped in white chocolate and sprinkled with cinammon and brown sugar. So good.
