Billy requested chocolate chip cookies and lots of them so I made the cookies from this book since they make almost two dozen. And it helps that they're yummy. I had one after dinner last night and they are soft and chewy. Perfect!
We went out to dinner last night. We tried a new place called The Hourglass. They are mostly gluten-free, and when I looked up their menu online before making a reservation I was pleased to see a pasta dish called Very Vegan. It's gluten free penne with olive oil or marinara sauce, spinach, roasted red pepper, roasted garlic, red onion & mushrooms. I had mine with marinara. It was good. Nothing superb, but once I added some s&p it was pretty tasty. It was just nice to order straight off the menu without having to make substitutions. No pictures, it was too fancy to whip out the camera!
Knitting: Finished Objects (FO's)
As promised, here are some pictures of some of the projects I've completed so far.
Technicolor Cell Phone Cozy (Pattern from Stitch n' Bitch)
This was my first attempt at knitting stripes, and I'm quite pleased with the end result. The button is a little worse for wear but that's only because I use it so much! This is knit in Bernat Cotton.
Garter and Lace Wrap ( Coats & Clark #J27-0001, Red Heart Knitting Made Easy)
I completed this a couple of months back and it has served me well at camp and at bonfires on chilly nights. I knit it in Red Heart Supersaver Black Acrylic. It was mostly done for me to practice purling and yarn overs.
On our way to the Hourglass...
It's Grocery Day, so I should have some new and exciting recipes to share with you soon!

We're gluten-free too! It's hard sometimes but it's also fun to see how much you can get away with. The cookies look great :)
I was thinking about knitting a case for my camera. You inspired me! I also eat mostly vegan and started my blog about two month ago trying to encourage people to eat healthier. I love your blog!
