Sapping

We decided to tap 'Bruiser' this year. Seeing as he is a maple tree.

We were able to get something like 9 or 10L of sap, and possible more of it running this week.

Which is good... because it boils down....

A lot!

I sat in a large hot tub, surrounded by strangers, and giggled to myself.

Because i was wearing my panties

Best Chocolate Buttercream EVER!!!

3 1/2 oz chocolate, melted

3/4 cup butter, whipped

1 tbsp milk

1/4 tsp vanilla

3/4 - 1 cup icing sugar

Whip butter as you melt chocolate. Whip together melted chocolate and butter. Add milk and vanilla, mix. Add sugar until combined.

Double, triple, whatever. Just enjoy!

delicious!!

I went through all the baby clothing and sorted it. It hurt to sort through it and pass it along. I know that there is someone out there who can really use it and is in need of it. But i have held onto it in hopes that i would put another baby into them. My heart breaks.

I thought i was done crying, but i broke down pretty bad at the Crisis Pregnancy Centre where i donated it. Thankfully, there was a woman from church who knew me and she just hugged me. I am happy to share the love and let others have the clothing. It is more that i dont want to be done having babies. I dont care how they come into my arms, as long as they do.

This, getting rid of the excess, was me letting go of my fertility, saying i want more of God. I just need to love Him more. And give this over to Him.

Education

It's moments like these that warm my heart.

Watching my oldest teach my youngest.

Yarn Along

I do love these yarn alongs. Thank you Ginny for arranging them!

This is a lovely project that I am working on. When I realized it wouldnt be done for Christmas, I put it aside, and will finish it for next Christmas.

I am freezing right now. Our new furnace isnt working

I am going to go snuggle with my kids and and keep knitting.
