"Purple Head"
A couple of months ago, I decided it was time for a hair change. I kept thinking about getting my hair chemically straightened again, but I vowed never to do that again all the way back in 2008. I haven't played much with hair color, so I decided it was time to give it a try.
Crochet Groot
I saw Guardians of the Galaxy with Jeff a while back and fell in love with Groot, particularly in his baby form. I found this pattern by Twinkie Chan on Ravelry and set to work.
New Wire Jewelry Book
As a professional tech contractor, I've been very fortunate to meet some awesome people who were formerly coworkers and are now friends. Several of them enjoy crafty hobbies like me and share crafty goodness! One such friend, KG, brought me Great Wire Jewelry Projects and Techniques by Irene From Peterson. There are some really neat projects in here, so I can't wait to dig in.
Austin Trip
Jeff and I took a trip to Austin last week. I would say it was to see the sights, but it was really hot... so the actual reason was to eat the food. We took the red eye and arrived around 5:30am Friday morning...
Banana Bread
Last week I mentioned we were taking time off from keto. This actually translates to me eating all the carbs in sight. I discovered some delicious chocolate chip banana bread at Tully's and decided I wanted to try to make it at home.
Food Truck Binging
We've taken having family in town as an excuse to go off keto for a month. I've been enjoying lunches from all the food trucks at the Bellevue food truck pod and Skyline Towers.
Blue Baby Dragon
I found this little guy on Ravelry recently and knew he'd be the perfect birthday present for JK. The pattern, by Vanja Grundmann, can be found here as a free Ravelry download.
