Too much to do

Well, I'm sad to report that my Thanksgiving was a flop. We had invited someone over, but she graciously declined, which was fine. It's just as well she didn't come. Since it was just the four of us, I decided to roast the chicken I had in the freezer instead of buying a turkey. Seemed like a good idea, right? Put it in the refrigerator to thaw on Monday, but apparently three days was not enough. I planned out my Thanksgiving morning so all the food would be ready at noon. Put the chicken in an oven bag (the way I always do my turkeys) and after two hours (which should have been plenty long enough for a 7 pound chicken in an oven bag), the wings and drumsticks were falling off, but when I cut into the breast, it was barely warm. Ick. I opened up the bag and let it cook until it was really done, but after cutting into it not-done, I couldn't bring myself to eat it. Just too icky. So we had a meatless Thanksgiving. The side dishes were good, though.

Other than that, I've spent most of my free time knitting, of course. I realized that I should type up a list of what I've made so far. I fear it will be a ridiculous amount of stuff in the short time I've been knitting/crocheting, but here goes:

k=knit, c=crochet...duh
