Stuff Going on in My Life.

Hello, and welcome to my blog.  If you have seen my last post, you know I have been making some videos,  Most of the videos are crochet tutorials, but I have a mix of other kinds. I recently finished up a video for my most popular pattern, which are my ribbed slippers.   

 I also posted a video about my daughter's famous chocolate chip cookies.

The video is found here. I really do like how these cookies turned out. I may have to make this my go to recipe for chocolate chip cookies.

I have recently joined a Facebook group to help promote my blogs. I have come across many interesting blogs. I have come across a beet and berry smoothie that I had to try. I made my smoothie with raspberries, strawberries, apples, and a beet. It was pretty good. I don't know why I had raspberries in this as I am not the biggest fan of raspberries. My smoothie had a lot of seeds from the raspberries. My son ended up straining his to get rid of the extra seeds.

I had used up the raspberries in a coffee cake. It turned out really tasty. I will have to make this more often, except with different fruit. Peaches would be nice.

My husband recently had some heart surgery don on his valve. He is doing well. He has been making mint tea combined with black tea lately. I wrote a blog post about it to include the benefits about it:

Though I am sure me make the tea because it tastes good, not necessarily for the health benefits. There might be a health heart blog post in the future. We will see.

If you have seen this post, 30 Hats for @HatNotHate (treasuresmadefromyarn.com), you know that I have been making hats for Hat Not Hate. I finally got those hats mailed off. I mailed it though my local grocery store. This is way more convenient than going to the post office, and I get groceries done while I am there. Thanks to Lisa behind the counter, she had saved me $20-30 by putting my hats in a smaller box than what I had.

It has been a challenge blogging, making videos, and working a full time job. If you have read my first post, you know that I already have four other blogs. The plan was to make this blog the main one I post to. The problem is that this blog is not monetized and my other ones are.  That means I haven't spent time on this blog.

What is the future of this blog? Not sure yet. I will likely to encompass my life and integrate my other blogs.

I will be sharing this post some or all of the link parties I have here:
