something quick something easy


 from a strange looking piece of code



that some just don't comprehend
no matter how many times you try to explain


to a seemingly never ending tangle



that becomes freer as you move along




and works itself into organised tidy sections



to slowly become something that makes sense



and if you're lucky
a little pretty too
kinda like
life

mischief...




did you know you could do yourself a
mischief
with gluten free foods
?
that is
if you don't have a problem with gluten in the first place

:{

if you aren't one of the growing number of peeps with gluten probs
take a word of advice
and steer clear of
gf foods
well
 eat little
 and
seldom


don't ask!!!!

:}











and more mischief is afoot
sherlock

the bush is
 for all sense and purpose
gone


the bugger
is back
and this time
you can see I'm not imagining it
there
in the water
is the
bush


what the hell he thinks he's damming is beyond me.

Now we have to outsmart him and protect the Maple
coz
if he takes that
it's war
and I can hear you say
good luck
 !!!!!

squirrels moles voles and beavers...oh my






went on a stroll
and came back and made a collage!!!
I missed a whole bunch of stuff by not
going out there and snapping
but it sure is growing fast


















this makes me mad
plain and simple
angry and pissed
a beaver seems to be
taking the
very loud and yellow bush

since I took that photo last week or whenever
half the bloody bush is gone
don't know where they think they're building a dam
but they come and take a branch or two and disappear
with all the trees and bushes and plants they have to choose from
they choose the
very loud and yellow bush
expletive deleteds



  all is not calm on the lake
if I see the buggers
I will not delete the expletives
they will go home shocked that an old lady knows such language....

another weekend...


and this is what my phone said when I woke it up
hope your morning is
goo
too!!!
husband also pointed out to me the other day that I can talk to my phone
no not someone ON my phone
but TO my phone
hello phone
please tell me the
Weather
and it shows me the
Weather
it doesn't talk back
yet
I don't think anyway
but that's OK
I've had enough back talk

(and yes I usually just look out of the window to see what the weather is!!!)

:)

someone we all know
and love
(Andigal
 has been showing us her
stash
ooh!!!!
xxx
she can knit socks like there is no tomorrow
and if I wore socks I would have her knit me some
lots
tons
isn't she lucky I don't
wear socks
:)x
so I thought I would show you some I have recently acquired
that I just love
it's another funky chunky monkey
and it's just such fun
got it yesterday so I've only started three things to see how it works
and frogged them all
just practicing




do you do that with new yarn
just start something randomly to play with it




like this other stuff I got
it's so soft and squishy and feels so good
so I got needles out and somehow remembered how to
in the car on the way home!!!!!

and then while looking at some very french blogs came across
a pattern done entirely with
it took a second or two and it made sense
it was code for this!!!!


 I like the entrelac the best...
so we'll see
thick squishy wool worked in spring
makes sense




and the fan and feather
who remembers
but it's done too
long and lovely




and another yarn I got that I didn't show you
'coz I haven't been around
this is a
that is
ALMOST done




I'm going to see if this works as an edging as I have run out of yarn
the light is once again rubbish so the colours are off
if not then
it's done!!!




funky shquishy shquashy chunky
yum


and this blast from the past
it was done ages ago but I never taa daah'd it
it weighs a ton and is very very warm
I used it once when it actually got cold
the one day it did this winter!!!!



and with the other ball of this colour that I had
another one of these
that I don't wear
so I have a pile of them now!!!!!
a quick and easy piece that is missing it's edge but it won't take long to finish
I changed it somehow and just kept going!!!
I predict who will take this the next visit!!!


and should she show interest in picking up the needles
I found some for pennies on sale
with all the dark yarn I seem to have using the pretty wood ones from Knit pick
makes me blind so I got these as they are white-ish and I can see the stitches so much better




so there we are
 a weeks worth in one posting
should have cut it up in bits and made you think I was really really
getting them done
zing zing zing
you know all blog perfect
and blogalicious
read another rant about why bloggers pretend all is well and perfect
and don't show the reality
sigh!!!!

what I REALLY hope is that the people who won the
mother of all jackpots
put all that money to good use
and don't waste it on rubbish
did you know that within five years of winning huge amounts
most of the winners are broke and OWE money
it shouldn't be allowed!!!!!
apparently 3 tickets showed up as winners
in different states
mind boggling


have a goo one peoples

:)X

and we're back!!!



with a recipe for pita bread
home made
yes at home
in the kitchen
in your own oven
anytime you like
fresh and pure

outside the
roomontheleft
things have gotten a little hairy at times
heath issues cropping up here and there and a lot of
noggin use necessary
some of the reason
I've been so quiet of late
I am fine
others aren't
but it's getting better
as they say
one day at a time
common sense mostly
and a lifetime of knowing what's right
as of today
it's much better
and if we keep going the way we have the past few days
it will all be well
I may jump in the lake



 and take a hike
but
baby steps
!!!!
so to celebrate my sanity
I made MYSELF some
homemade pita bread
coz I could and I wanted to
I found it
on the pinning place and kept it for special time
and today decided it was time to try it


the printer wasn't used
I wrote it down the old fashioned way
on the back of a scrap piece of paper!!! and off into the kitchen I went
and
I
made



pita bread
puffing in de oven
puff puff



 and when it was done
it was still



PUFFED




even if you don't it's very easy and straight forward
I cannot wait to eat a piece
chicken salad
inside a  piece a'pita bread
that
I made
in my kitchen
with stuff I recognise and can pronounce
!!!!!

I just wrote a whole  rant about the crap food here
but changed my mind and
hit delete
we are, each one of us, responsible for what we put in our mouths
just because they make crap food
doesn't mean you have to eat it

nuff sed!!!
so
 I'll see you soon
I hope
take care
and
be good
