Comfort Food

Sunday I went to another cookbook club potluck! I made a French onion casserole from Umami Bomb by Raquel Pelzel and it was very yummy. I love onions! Here are a few pics of the food everything was so delicious, I can't wait to finish up the leftovers!

Slipper Progress

I thought I would be done with my new slippers by now, but I've been a bit sick and concentrating on other things. I also messed up one of the heals and can't figure out how to fix the booger without ripping it out so I'll be doing that. Here is my progress:

Happy November! Happy Voting Day! Today I'm sharing a few pictures of things.

Ox Headband and Tail

I made an ox headband to go with the tail I shared last week! Happy Halloween! Hope your costume turned out great!

Vampires and Other Pumpkins

My latest Craft Book Club project was two vampire pumpkins! The Vampyre by John William Polidori was so short and a bit uninspiring for craft ideas. I considered doing something with a dagger, but then decided carving or painting a vampire on a pumpkin is good enough! Over the weekend I did a bit of pumpkin carving at a Halloween party then had a crafternoon get together last night where we painted pumpkins. Here are a bunch of pumpkins, not all mine.

The first little vampire jack o' lantern was carved by me. Wendy also made a vampire jack o' lantern! and Kari's jack o' lantern is screaming about the scary vampires! The scar faced panted vampire is also mine, it has a little bat friend. The scull was painted by Katie, and the depressed Frankenstein's monster was painted by Chelsea!

Our next read is Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. I was going to knit some more slippers, but decided against following that Amy March pattern again so we will see what I end up with. Also, I'm still searching for a Christmas/winter book to read in December so if you have any suggestions, let me know in the comments!
