Text of the page (random words):
es in us size 1 to 3 i only like doing two socks at once on separate sets of needles so i have at least doubles in every size i have multiples of a few odd sizes as well us 0000 0 4 5 and 10 for the odd sock or slipper pattern i also went from wooden to metal to plastic and back and then to lace us 1 32 circulars whew so many needles for knitting socks i stick to us 1 32 circulars most of the time recently i ve been having trouble with my us 1 wooden points breaking at the metal housing what s up with that knit picks i prefer using wood in the winter i have no medical proof but i believe metal needles are not good for my arthritic fingers in the winter hey i found a picture of the first socks i ever knitted edie eckman s anklet from learn to knit socks my first hand knit socks last week i mentioned i went from kitchener the stitch used to weave together the toe of the sock to kitchen the place where i go to cook and bake that gave me an idea for a name for a blog a blog devoted to my cooking so i can take the food out of my knitting blog it was a fleeting thought and then it came back when i received my shipment from blue apron i now have another blog kitchener to kitchen i just started it it s not fully constructed but has one two posts check it out when you have a minute off to add some rows to the heel of the second sock of france socks 2014 marilyn bona fide knitter posted by bona fide knitter at 6 51 00 pm no comments labels france socks 2014 thursday january 1 2015 happy new year when last i wrote i was knitting yes knitting france socks 2014 i finished the first sock and stopped at the toe because i could not find a darning needle to do the kitchener that s my excuse and i m sticking to it well actually i might have delayed the kitchener for the kitchen yes i ve been cooking and baking instead of knitting so much cooking and baking i considered fleetingly starting a blog about it anyway today i will weave the first sock off the needles and start the second that is first on my 2015 to do list if you do not follow me on facebook you haven t seen any part of my baking obsession i ll leave you with this pictorial sample as i go off to enjoy this new year s day by knitting and eating cake the cake the cake with a lemon glaze apple pie the beginning apple pie peeling apples apple pie the apples cored sliced and seasoned the apple pie baked in a skillet the first bundt cake perfect color bundt cake with lemon glaze cake suzette an orange flavored cake drenched in a sugar orange and orange liqueur glaze time to knit bona fide knitter posted by bona fide knitter at 12 50 00 pm 1 comment sunday november 9 2014 been so lo o o ong been so long was an old doo wop song from back in the day in this particular instance i am referring to how long it s been since i last posted on my blog i blame two things for this lapse 1 facebook and 2 me when i have a thought and especially since most of those are food related instead of knitting these days it s so easy to just post a picture and explanation on facebook and move on no need to have more than one thought or more than one picture and let s face it i ve gotten very lazy and my knitting has suffered however meet france socks 2014 the yarn was purchased in a shop in valbonne a little town in the south of france the french riviera in september 2014 don t be misled by the first picture i m only halfway through the foot of the first sock this is as of this afternoon november 9 2014 i started them when on my vacation after france a few weeks on cape cod with my snowman in october 2014 what you woke me just to reach your knitting so that is what i ve been doing traveling planning traveling cooking traveling baking traveling knitting not necessarily in that order i started this post with knitting content wasn t that great since this is a knitting blog and now i have to move onto highlights of my traveling and cooking baking because that s what i ve done the most our cape cod trip in the spring was chilly and full of walks in the forest spotting wild turkeys and walks on the beach not actually on the beach because dogs aren t allowed after april 1 sorry tilt your head to the left i can t seem to rotate these two pictures been away too long entrance to the beach dogs not allowed on after april 1 it was so chilly i turned to baking and became obsessed with perfecting a recipe for two popovers these did not pop over now these are popovers i perfected a lower calorie lower cholesterol version of the popover based on making smaller portions you know sometimes you just don t want to bake half a dozen and be subjected to the temptation to eat them all please note the operative word of my recipe is lower not low and the recipe is here ooops no link it s printed below and then there was france i spent three wonderful lovely weeks in a villa in st paul de vence 1 7k from the city while there i did knit rounds on my beach socks 20 12 yes i am way behind on beach socks but mostly i enjoyed the villa the pool the meals we cooked pretending to be french chefs the quaint city of st paul de vence nice monaco monte carlo and many other towns of the french riviera the trouble with postings so far apart is i have way too much to catch up on and way too many pictures i want to include before france there was more spring and then summer on the cape after france there was autumn on the cape i ll have to add more in installments or i will lose the few of you who are left more next time which won t be as long as it has been bonafide knitter two little popovers lite i found the perfect little vintage pyrex made in france glass ramekins on ebay but i m sure you already have suitable ones or can find very inexpensive ones at target or walmart you will need two ramekins that are about 2 inches high and 3 1 2 inches diameter mine are actually only 1 1 2 inches high preheat oven to 450f 1 3 cup all purpose flour pinch of salt 2 tbs white egg beaters or 4 tbs of yellow 2 tbs yellow egg beaters 1 3 cup skim milk 1 tbs of melted butter or substitute pam butter flavor mix flour and salt together with a fork combine egg beaters skim milk and melted butter stir wet ingredients into dry and whisk until smooth spray ramekins with pam and fill equally place ramekins on a foil lined cookie sheet your oven floor will thank you and bake for 30 minutes at 450f then reduce the temperature to 350f and bake for 15 minutes longer do not open the oven door while baking best if served at once posted by bona fide knitter at 4 20 00 pm 2 comments labels beach socks 2012 france socks 2014 popovers wednesday april 9 2014 snowman in april no it s not an april fool s joke i actually have a snowman in april he started out looking like the abominable snowman and now he is just snowman as cute as can be i know i said no mas no mas after snowball and icecream but something was missing from my life after the sadness was gone i realized i missed the pitter patter of little bichon feet gradually i found myself back at what i d decided years ago as ice and snow aged that i would rescue replacements as soon as one of them was gone now they were both gone i started periodically checking the internet for bichon rescues there were few who met my criteria around five years old negotiable no more than 15 pounds not negotiable i applied to three rescue agencies within a four hour drive and sent an email to one nothing one sunday night three and a half weeks ago i saw a face online emmet i was hooked i m not sure why this face grabbed me the nose the teeth the tongue all that hair i don t know there were a few more pictures of him i got more and more excited it was like doggie porn who was this emmet this bichon mix male 2 4 years old 11 pounds it was late sunday evening i fired off an email requesting an appointment to meet emmet asap for possible adoption i didn t expect a response before the next day sometime after business hours began i received a response later that sunday night the response advised me i must submit an application before an appointment could be granted references must be checked etc yes animal rescue agencies are almost as strict as child adoption agencies for good reason paws philadelphia animal welfare society is the agency that had emmet and although had i sent applications as far as ct of course it was not one of the agencies to which i had already applied i immediately printed and filled out an application i scanned it into my computer tricky tricky it took hours and emailed it off just before midnight sunday night on tuesday i was contacted and invited to come in and meet emmet and if we liked each other i could take him home i was over the moon yes my references had been checked yes he could be mine when would i like to come in i wanted to rush right there but i was on my way out to an appointment that morning tomorrow wednesday at 11 a m yes when he was brought into the room where i was sitting waiting my first thought was he looks like the abominable snowman thus his new name snowman we took to each other immediately he licked my fingers tentatively he stretched up and put his front paws up to my knees he let me lift him onto my lap where he settled in for petting and conversation i put him back on the floor he walked away and come back to me he ended up on my lap again giving kisses and getting belly rubs at one point while he was on my lap and i was sure he was the one there was a noise outside the open doorway and he growled i think he had decided i was the one and he didn t want anybody coming in to separate us the paperwork was completed the fee was paid and shortly after noon on wednesday snowman and i were headed for the highway that would bring us home after a settling in time a trip to my vet the required one week follow up with the vet at paws and a reasonable time for neutering stitches to heal i was allowed to get him groomed before after fun with favorite toys pensive at bedtime we celebrate our three week anniversary today we are both very happy with our circumstance he is loving lovable and loved bona fide knitter ps to add knitting content i have been knitting with him napping in my lap perhaps he has brought about the return of my knitting mojo posted by bona fide knitter at 9 27 00 pm 4 comments labels bichon mix paws philadelphia animal welfare society snowman monday february 24 2014 knitting ha fooled you with that subject line i m not really knitting but i did try the turkish bed socks from my christmas eve box is the subject of my knitting interest you might remember i discovered i had already started a pair so i went back to those to finish them after all i was past the heel turn on the first sock well now i know why i stopped 24 rows according to my row counter below the heel flap on the heel bottom i don t know what the next instructions are trying to tell me i have really lost it i could follow written directions even when i didn t really know what the knit or crochet or needlepoint stitch was written directions are were my strong suit that s why directions shown in pictures irk me i can t read pictures i know picture directions are done because of the language barriers with so many of our products being manufactured in other countries but that s a rant for another day back to the turkish bed socks after row 24 the instructions want me to seam each side with the mattress stitch or save the seaming step for later since i need a refresher on the mattress stitch i decided to save it for later now as you probably know i am a magic loop method sock knitter you start this sock using just two needles easy peasy after the knitting mentioned in the previous paragraph the dpns method begins and i need to start to work in the round oh yeah well i know how to convert to that don t i but what does knit omg i get it it took my reading it to explain my dilemma without violating copywrite for me to get it du uh okay that s enough about that to make up for my brain freeze i am determined to get this first bed sock finished tout de suite take two aspirins and call me in the morning in the meantime back to cooking and baking seems like that s all i know how to do these days and gain weight i have a new kitchen gadget a miracle meatloaf pan that allows me to make a stuffed meatloaf with ease and deliciousness i decided to give it a try yesterday i made a ground turkey meatloaf stuffed with cornbread stuffing i didn t think to take pictures until half the meat was in the pan and i had made the well for the stuffing i ll admit i cheated on the stuffing it s stove top the pan s lid is the secret you place a layer of half the meat in the pan then press down the multi level side of the lid it creates a well for the stuffing below you can see the multi level side of the lid the side that creates the well as i press down and shape the top portion of meat with the flat side of the lid and get the pan ready for the oven the lid does not go in the oven out of the oven plated and sliced can you see the cornbread stuffing ready to eat notice the portion control oh wait i left the wine on the counter gotta have a wine spritzer with this add the spritz that s better okay dinner is served and after a small second slice of the meatloaf dessert and coffee red velvet cake curtesy of entenmann s note to self when stuffing this turkey meatloaf with stove top stuffing use 3 4 c chicken broth half the liquid suggested and stuff the meatloaf with all the stuffing i had reserved a cup of stuffing to use as an extra side so there you have it knitting and cooking all in one blog entry i rock every now and then bona fide knitter posted by bona fide knitter at 1 30 00 pm no comments

a rear window this whole winter weather thing has been unreal and costly i pay a teenager for snow removal my sidewalk walkway driveway and minivan get cleared off and before i get a chance to go out and about for more than a couple of days it snows again when it s nuder four inches i do the labor and make a path in the sidewalk walkway two tire paths in the driveway clean off the minivan and hope the sun gets what i leave behind and then it snows again enough to need the teen with his snowblower so i ve turned to baking and online shopping one would think i d pick up the knitting needles maybe
