I have been knitting though.
A scarf to go with the mittens for my co-workers friend.
A ruffle scarf for a co-worker.
These mittens, and more, have all been gifted.
And, then there has been candy-making.
My husband likes fudge. Not the soft kind, the kind of hard sugary kind that my grandmother used to make. My parents like divinity and I am the only one in the family who has a sturdy stand mixer to make it with. So Sunday I made some fudge and divinity. The divinity making didn't go so well. I could not get it to stiffen so I had to beat it for a loooong time and then I heard a noise...
I did get the divinity to stiffen and it is now setting up.
A new wire whip has been ordered and should arrive soon. I won't need it again before Christmas so that is ok. I have had my mixer for about 30 years so I think I am pretty lucky I haven't had any other troubles with it or any of its parts.
Go to Judy's page to see what other quilters are working on.

Lots of holiday stuff to do this time of year. I love divinity, but it's been too humid here to make it. Have a very Merry Christmas.
