Poke 'Em Out!

seriously.

my eyeballs are driving me insane! i woke up this morning to find them almost swollen shut and pink and watering and burning and just - well - gross. tonight after taking much allerguy medication they are no better. the swelling has gone down but they are watering and burning like a bitch :(

i'm not looking forward to waking up tomorrow for work and looking like this. argh.

on a better note i've started some new crocheting projects and hopefully they'll turn out :) i have a huge desire to make more baby things but have to concentrate on Christmas gifts right now - and perhaps using up some of my mass collection of yarn before buying more :)

and now - time for another dose of meds, my cooling eye mask and some sleep!

Halloween 2007

(i actually typed 'Halloween 2006...it's a bitch getting old...)



Here are some pictures from my Halloween baking adventures :)

First off we have Almond Bars with a dyed orange frosting to make them more festive :) They turned out fantastic! Just as good as Chris's sister made them! (Unlike the sugar cookies - she gave me the recipe but I'm still convinced she left out an ingredient just so that hers will always be better.......kidding of course...) I found the recipe for these delicious bars here.






Next up were the Scary Eyeball Cookies! I was incredibly pleased at how easy there were and how cute they turned out! Big hit! :) The recipe for these can be found here :) Enjoy!

*(I used the brown Reeses Pieces for the pupils instead of the Butter Finger BB's)

And here is the proud Girl Scout with her cookies :) (the vest is mine as are all the badges...)

Hope y'all had a great Halloween!!

ow

my eyes are killing me! i think i've crocheted them to death....
