Lazy Sundays

Today has been a lovely lazy Sunday, spent on the couch crocheting. My mom came over to keep me company, but there is such a content feeling of peace at the moment, she's fallen asleep on the couch! Of course, how could one not, when there is a fuzzy bear cuddling at your feet? Look at that face! Love love love!

We enjoyed french toast with my mama's homemade apple sauce this morning... That is when I began deciding what to crochet today. 

I chose the holly pattern from Lesley Stanfield's 100 flowers to knit and crochet. It's such a pain in the butt that book! The most beautiful and inspirational patterns, yet once I start crocheting something, I get so frustrated and swear I will never make another. 

However, now that I have completed one leaf, I may as well make more. I am thinking they would look nice on the red wreath base I bought last week for the door. I have searched the interwebs for more little crochet patterns that would look nice on it, but I am so boring -- all I think is classy is the holly pattern! Ugh, this means I have to make 6-9 more of these stupid frustrating leaves! I hope I can stay motivated! Lol!

I have been crocheting one project obsessively lately though. In fact, I just ran out of the yarn this morning! 50g already worked out! It's kind of a shame that it's a gift for my mom, who I know reads this! Therefore, I can't post pictures of it! I will say, whatever it is, it's gorgeous and she'll love it! :) I know I do!

I wish I still had some of these leftover!

They are lemon bars made with this recipe. I thought the lemon flavor wasn't intense enough for my taste, but they were still delicious and they are all gone. I served it with some simple whipped cream, it added some rich creaminess. They were dessert on Friday, after the enchiladas. I'll have to post a how to for my enchilada recipe (it's a good excuse to make them again!). 

Well, back to crocheting... Teeheehee, nothing's better than a lazy Sunday, just ask the cat!

Thanks for reading! Hope you are enjoying your Sunday, too! :)
