Sky Scarf: Week 6

Um, brrr? Why did it have to get so cold so suddenly? Or at all really, I don't like the cold, it could have stayed away. It was 24 degrees when I woke up this morning, so needless to say, these pictures were taken inside where it's a tad bit warmer.

I'm using a lot more white in this scarf then I thought I would. I guess I never realized how many days we have that there are clouds floating around in the sky. It's not cloudy every day, but more often then not, there's some hanging around. Usually big fluffy white ones!

P.S. You'll also have to excuse the phone picture, my camera finally bit the dust. :'( I got some money for my birthday, so I'll be looking at getting a new one ASAP. I'd love a DSLR but I don't think that will happen, so can anyone suggest a good point and shoot?

New week, new menu.


Shake and Bake Chicken

Monday:
Grilled Cheese (need to get rid of this bread before it goes bad!)
Tuesday:
French Bread Pizza
Wednesday:
Fettuccine Alfredo
Thursday:
Frito Pie
Friday:
Pot Roast
Saturday:
Left Overs
Sunday:
Homemade Shake and Bake Chicken


So the Pot Roast is our new recipe this week. I've made pot roast many times before, but I figured I'd do it a little different this week. This recipe has the veggies already in there, which means two things, one there's less worry about timing and two, it's all done in one pot. I love one pot meals! If I can get over this cold enough by Friday, I want to try to make a carrot cake to go with dinner. Here's to hoping! I'm dying for some carrot cake. ;) 


Anyone have a favorite recipe for carrot cake? Any other favorites? I'd love some new ideas and they don't need to be from the Allrecipes website.

Sky Scarf: Week 5

We had quite a few days of sunny skies this past week. We've now hit a few days of grey, rainy, yucky skies. But at least it's still warm! I'm kind of excited about the storms we're going to get over the next couple of days, add some contrasting color into the mix, lol. 
Charleston Blue Sky Scarf
Excuse the poor photo quality, I had to take it inside today, on the couch. I took it where I sit to knit because it has the best natural lighting, but that doesn't really help when there's no sun poking through the clouds. I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!
