Service issues...

are totally lame!

Our phone/internet/TV is out for the third time this week! 

What a pain!

Now I have nothing to entertain me while I fold laundry except for Pete knocking over the pile of towels. 

I baked a cheesecake today, so when I have Internet again and not just the Blogger app (that stinks for uploading pictures!), I will show you my Greek Yogurt Cheesecake!

I used parts from a total of four different recipes, and it looks good. It smells good!

I sure hope it tastes good!

Well, until then, I'll be trying to decide what topping to make for the cheesecake and procrastinating until Chris gets home so I don't have to put away the laundry by myself.

Cotton Dishcloths

I'm going cotton dishcloth crazy! I just love these greens and pinks, too. 

I've been knitting dishcloths during breathing treatments and the jumpy parts of Supernatural episodes. (Chris and I have been binge-watching it over the past month or so.)


I'm trying out different techniques and new stitches.

I did the linen stitch a couple days ago, and I tried a diagonally knit square after that. I'm looking for new stitch patterns to try using dishcloths as swatches. 


I used circular needles to do the single-row stripes for the dishcloth that is second from the right. 

I'll take pictures of the circular needle single-row stripes technique while I'm knitting my next dishcloth. I really enjoyed using that trick, so I think I'll do it again.
