Divine Dresses, A Dog Hungry Cat and DC Cupcakes

   My day started around 10 AM today. Early for me, late for others. Yes, being homeschooled has its perks! Around noon, Miracle came over and we hung out for a while then we headed to Brides & Beyond to get my prom dress altered. I can't wait until I can wear it for prom!! Then we went couponing with my mom and brothers. (Couponing Blog Address) Miracle went home and from there, I have been crocheting. Holding my baby fuzzy ball Molly Tamale, as I now call her, while I do so. :) Yea, she's just chillin. ;)
   My cat, Abby, although doesn't exactly know what to do now that "another species" has invaded her home. She has been looking at her and studying her, but only hisses or tries to attack. She has been better today, no attacking and sat almost beside her. Abby on one side of Steven, Molly on the other. Hopefully when Abby gets declawed, things should start going smoother between the two.
   Now, I'm going to finish my episode of DC Cupcakes so I can find out what gender Katherine's baby is, and work on my Cotton Candy Cardigan and maybe move on to finishing my Blues Infinity Scarf soon :)

Sleeping on Steven :)

Making Monday

For this week's Making Monday, I made M&M Cookies with the colorful spring M&Ms. (except for the purple ones, those are being collected for prom) They are the BEST cookies ever! I used the Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe that I always use. Unfortunately, I couldn't find those dear semi-sweet chocolate chips to save my life today! My mom, my boyfriend, and I all looked through every pantry space, and every cabinet in the kitchen and couldn't find them. Oh well, the M&Ms were put to good use!

For the chrochet/knitting portion of Making Monday, my Cotton Candy Cardigan is coming along very well. I finished the back and just started on the first sleeve. I can say, I might just have to keep the FO for this project for myself to wear!!

FOs and my newest WIP

Well I've decided to start some easy and simple accessories for now. Since the RE conference is in August, I decided I should probably start making things now! So far, I've finished 2 Knotted Headbands, (Lavender and Amethyst) and am working on a Cotton Candy Cardigan in Lavender. I also have the Blues Infinity Scarf in Petal Pink as a WIP for the conference too.

Birthdays and Puppies

First of all, I want to say happy birthday to my not so little anymore, brother, Jayden. He turned 10 today! The big 1-0, finally hitting the double digits! We ate cake, and watched Wreck-it-Ralph. He was a happy boy when he got that movie because every day, every time the commercial came on, he said "I want Wreck-it-Ralph for my birthday!"

I also want to welcome our newest addition to the family, Molly! She's a toy shih-poo and a little over 8 weeks old. :)

I would like to add, my mom has a couponing blog that tells about the deals that she finds and how she does it all! Here is the -> Link
