Several years ago, before I had the titles of wife and mother added to my list, I very rarely touched uncooked meat (I ate a lot of pasta and eggs and ordered chicken when dining out, which actually seemed to work well) and hadn’t given a thought to crafting (unless you count making collages, which I still love to do really).
Some things do change.
Today when I finally got fed up with the too-tight straps and ugliness of my eye mask (now necessary for night, when before I could sleep standing up, anywhere, anytime), I simply made one. It’s not perfect, not even close, but it’s way cuter than the cheap one I bought at a terrible lingerie store, makes any room dark (thanks to layers of linen hidden inside), and the straps fit me perfectly (no more “gah, this thing is too tight!”).
It’s great to surprise yourself sometimes isn’t it? Even if the result is a home-ec class (these are extinct by now?) project lookalike.
That is the cutest photo ever. You should use it as your gravatar!
