Glass Flip Flops

Crochet these coasters in multiple colors and everyone will know which beverage is theirs! And since the coaster stays with the glass, you’ll avoid rings on the furniture (as well as drips). These make great party favors too!

Sebastian is normally really really good at night with going to the toilet.  He will get up and go once a night and come back to bed.  But last night he must have been really tired as he got out of bed, took off his pants and pee’d on the side of the bed.  Then got back in without the pants.

Discouvered a new word today.

Amigurumi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Amigurumi (編み包み, Amigurumi? lit. Knitting a stuffed toy) is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small stuffed animals and anthropomorphic creatures. Amigurumi are typically cute animals (such as bears, rabbits, cats, dogs, etc.), but can include inanimate objects endowed with anthropomorphic features. Amigurumi can be knitted, but the vast majority of amigurumi are crocheted.

Amigurumi are usually crocheted out of yarn. The simplest designs are worked in spirals. In contrast to typical Western crochet the rounds are not usually joined. They are also worked with a smaller size needle in proportion to the weight of the yarn in order to create a very tight-looking fabric without any gaps through which the stuffing might escape. Amigurumi are usually worked in sections and then joined (some amigurumi have no limbs whatsoever and the body and head is worked as one piece). The extremities are often stuffed with plastic pellets to give them a life-like weight, while the rest of the body is stuffed with fiber stuffing.

The pervading aesthetic of amigurumi is cuteness. To this end, typical amigurumi animals have an over-sized spherical head on a cylindrical body with undersized extremities

Pictured items not done by Janine - as seen on Etsy.com

Somebody I know *nudge nudge wink wink* asked me the other day if they had lamb shank in this country as he had not seen it on sale in the store. LOL

And so I give to you “The Local Lamb”

1. WHY DO MEN BECOME SMARTER DURING SEX?

(because they are plugged into a genius)

2. WHY DON’T WOMEN BLINK DURING SEX?

(they don’t have enough time)

3. WHY DOES IT TAKE 1 MILLION SPERM TO FERTILIZE ONE EGG?

(they don’t stop to ask directions)

4. WHY DO MEN SNORE WHEN THEY LIE ON THEIR BACKS?

(because their balls fall over their butt-hole and they vapor lock)

(You’re laughing aren’t you?!?!)

"Hatz 4 Bratz” is my kids range of Crochet Hats.

This first hat was made for Cameron and will be posted to him. Worn here by Joshua.

This one was made to Sebastians exact specifications regarding shape and colour.  He is very happy with it (as you can see!).

This morning I came out the bathroom and went into the lounge where the kids were watching TV.  I could hear T in the kitchen cupboards and so was talking away to him when I heard him shout loudly from outside.  I then realised it was not him in the kitchen and I looked over the counter to see the ass end of a massive baboon.  There had been 2 of them inside stealing food and T had run smack into the one as he came in and the baboon exited.  He started yelleing and storming toward it and it barked back at him.  It then ran away as the second one came running out with a packet of Thai rice in hand.  T chased them and they spilled the rice off the roof all over the patio.  They then stuck around for ages trying to get back in and steal again.
