Old School Pictures

   I had some old school pictures of Aidan, my brother, in my wallet and I found a frame that was not being used. So last night I put in the two pictures. As a background for them I used lined paper, since they are school pictures, I thought it went with the theme. I like how it looks!

Scarf Headband With Flower

   I loved the headband so much, I made two more! These are both with 6 stitches cast one, and both approximately 12 inches long. I just have to sew on the buttons and they will be finished. I love how they look! So cute!

Scarf Headband

   I was going to make a scarf the other day, but then I decided--why make a scarf when I can make into headband! It takes 30-45 minutes to make one of these. First you have to cast on 6 or 7 stitches(depending on how thick you would like it). Then I knit about 12 inches. When I finished I sewed a button onto one end and then you can adjust how tight you want it on your head. Then I also knit another mini headband, cast on 4 stitches. That is about 6 inches. Then I folded it and curled it into itself to make a "flower" that I sewed together on the bottom to keep it's form. Then I sewed it to the main headband scarf. The sewing only takes a few minutes, very simple. I love it! It looks really cute on and I thi9nk it's most versatile then a scarf. It will look super cute during these winter months!

What's For Dinner-Quick Healthy Sidedish

   I made this last week for my family, it turned out to be very hearty and filling. It is very healthy for you, and excellent for a side dish on your table for dinner! First I boiled kidney beans(canned) and frozen corn for 15 minutes. Then I drained and put back into the pot with balsamic vinegar and a little olive oil. Then I added green beans(canned) and about a cup of precooked rice. Then I cooked for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. It was very simple and very healthy. I recommend making it for sure!
