Milk Cozy Fun

Posted on

Andy’s been bugging me for about two years now to make some more milk cozies. I’d only made two before moving on to something else, and we get four jars of milk each week. Those other two jars were always lonely and feeling neglected and sad. Sometimes, they got so depressed, the jars would jump and smash like Humpty Dumpty. Sploosh.

I ran out of circles to make yo-yos a few nights ago, so I was able to finally finish up Milk Cozy III. It sports a bottom to prevent smashing on concrete, and it has a sexy collar to add a bit of lactosey playfulness.

I received a care package today of more yo circles from Mom, so it may be a while before I do Milk Cozy IV. After that, who knows. Anyone want to buy some milk cozies?


Summer Update

Posted on

I’ve been avoiding blogging in part because I haven’t in so long and feel behind. The other part is that we’ve been pretty occupied, what with all the naps summer requires. Here is another picture list of what we’ve been up to lately.

We went to Georgia and put Anya to work folding laundry,

overseeing the peach plant packing line,

washing dishes,

wrangling tiny, new kittens and tomatoes,

vacuuming, and

driving a tractor.

Back home, we played live-action Candy Land at the library,

bounced at T’s house, and

painted a bunch of benches for school.

We also yo-yo’ed. A lot. 300 down, 100 to go!

Who knows what exciting adventures the last few weeks of summer holds!
