The post below is of a squirrel ornament that I sewed on Sunday to give to my friends for Christmas. It was recently discovered that we shared the common experience of caring for baby squirrels...so, the theme was appropriate. See Peanut, below:

Kitchen window curtains
I made curtains for my kitchen windows today. I just hate it when the sunshine thinks it can waltz on into my apartment whenever it pleases. Sometimes I'm in a dreary mood and need curtains to block it out. I have clothespins attached at the top to keep the curtains cinched in from the edges of the rods, so that more of the white window framing will show.

Fried Chicken
Hey! I helped my mom with making fried chicken this weekend. It was indescribably delicious. It takes about 24 hours because you have to let the chicken marinate in buttermilk, and it takes a lot of shortening which can be pricey, but the results are out of this world. Here's a picture.

The little craft I made last night
I sewed this cover for my heating pad last night out of flannelette and free-handed the cute appliques. Stitched them on with a narrow zig zag. Also: this was my first time free-handing buttonholes. Maybe the cat looks a bit cross-eyed because of the plaid print on her eyes?
