About trying to get back into polymer clay, not sure if that’s gonna happen anymore.  I’m finding that it’s more difficult and frustrating than I remember.  I may give something easy a go before quitting, but I’m doubting that right now.  Made a better Bulbasaur, first one wasn’t that easy on the eyes.

The better Bulbasaur with 2 Pokeballs

I really want to make a Charmander, but I don’t want to get really frustrated.  *sigh*  I’ll figure it out.

Trying to teach my mom how to crochet did not work out.  She got frustrated, I got frustrated so we called it quits.She can chain just fine but for whatever reason her stitches get messed up.

On the topic of making things, I attempted a fruit tart last week.  I was pleasantly surprised with how it turned out and how easy it was.  The only thing I’d change is how the custard is made.  I’d combine the yolk mixture and milk earlier because I found that the yolk cooks too quickly with simmering milk.  Kinda how creme brulee is made.

It was yummy!

Worked a fair amount last week, 3 hours Thursday and 7 on Saturday.  I know, I need another job.  Usually I’ll get 4 hours a week.

Ok, I just need to mention this: I swear there’s a ghost in the house today.  Been hearing noises at the back door, metal clanging in the kitchen (and nothing moved), and various small noises everywhere else.  No, it’s not the cat.  It’s been freaking me out and the fact that I’m by myself doesn’t help.
