Good morning, how many of you play practical jokes because today is April Fool's Day?? Mother nature is definitely playing a joke on us. Maine weather today is going to be in the high 50's, but then turn bitter cold over the weekend, with I dare say it...SNOW at some point Sunday into Monday. Yep the flowers are popping up, my peepers are peeping in the bog behind me. A very happy welcome to warmer weather, but like I said Mother nature is playing jokes on us!!
Crafty wise I was able to sit with my friends and spin last night! I finished one ball of this pale pink with white that will be amazing plied on itself after the other ball is spun. Not quite sure what I am going to knit/crochet with it, but it will be soft and beautiful. I have laid out the projects I have to make for this coming Christmas! I know its only April 1, but spinning to knit isn't a one day thing, so I will start early. I am actually pretty happy, I have been participating, over the last few years, in a secret Santa swap with my spinning group. Well this year I am ahead of the game. I have my fiber to spin and I have my pattern I am spinning for!! If you knew me, you would know I never really know what I am going to make with my yarn as I am spinning, I just wait for inspiration to hit me.
My homestead is coming along...with the warmer weather brings coop cleaning!! Yep Sunday if its nice I will be cleaning out my coop!! Yep get my coop clean from the winter poo pile up and give them some fresh footing and a "New" coop smell. Egg production is on the rise as the longer warmer days help my chicks turn from heat production to laying!!
Cooking this weekend is a definite thing!! Going to make another batch of homemade danish, Saturday night will make another batch of homemade yogurt, a new type of granola and whatever my fancy decides to whip up. I might try my hand at donuts!! What do you have on your agenda this weekend?
