Felt Like Knitting

A Seat Fit for a King or Queen

  

I had plans to create a tutorial for making this Vacation Bible School throne, but I don't have the time to do that right now.  So I'll just show you the before and after photos.  This is the throne I used as inspiration.  I'm so glad this project is completed!

Ten on Tuesday - 10 Favorite Ice Cream Toppings

Thinking about ice cream toppings made me want some!

1.  Chocolate syrup - My favorite topping of all time.  I remember my grandma had a can of it in her refrigerator.  I've switched to a bottle, but it's still in my fridge all the time, too.

And the rest in no particular order...

2.  Nuts - Pecans or salted peanuts are the best, but walnuts are good, too.  My grandma also had one of those nut grinders - fun!

3.  Hot fudge - There is a difference between that and chocolate syrup.  :)

4.  Chopped candy cane - Only when using hot fudge or chocolate syrup.

5.  Caramel

6.  Chocolate sprinkles

7.  Whipped cream

8.  Raspberries - When I get frozen yogurt, I get some kind of fruity frozen yogurt then top it with chocolate syrup, raspberries and strawberries.  Yum!

9.  Strawberries

10.  Toffee bits

Tip:  When I don't have ice cream in the house or I'm trying to be good, I slice bananas into a bowl then top with chopped nuts and chocolate syrup.  I don't even miss the ice cream!

The Crazy Busy Week

Do you ever not know that everything in your life is coming due at one time?  And then all of the sudden you realize that there aren't enough hours in the day or week?  That's my week this week.  Even yesterday it didn't occur to me that I had so much going on.  But it's slowly dawning on me today...

Over the weekend I was in Chattanooga for a Synod Assembly meeting as a voting member for my church.  That's my second assembly and I've enjoyed both of them very much.  We re-elected our bishop and Presiding Bishop Mark Hanson was there, too.  I didn't know that he is such a funny, personable guy.  I loved his sermon and his speeches.

What do you have going on this week?
