Little bits

It's been a while hasn't it? I was scared about readjusting to having children again, but it's mostly gone smoothly. You do what you have to right? My baby turned 5 last week and we went to Disneyland.


We had a blast. Here she is trying a princess crown.


I've been fortunate in that I have "easy" children. But I must say that going to an amusement park without worrying about diaper changes, feeding, or peepee accidents just makes the experience wa more pleasurable.

I did sew something last month and I'll show you in an upcoming Halloween post. Last night I whipped up some Burrito Cozies.


I typically wrap the burritos in foil then wrap a potholder around and secure it with an elastic. These are cut at 8.5 x 8.5, two fashion fabrics and 1 of that insulated lining (can't remember what it's called right now). I sewed the outer and the lining together then turned it inside out. Sewed the lining right sides together and then slipped into the other piece. Then bound with Double Fold Bias Tape. Easy. This is their Friday lung. It's only lukewarm at lunchtime but they don't mind.

Burrito cozies? Girl, you need help. That's the strangest thing I've ever heard of.

I know Mrs. Peevie! I didn't know what to call them. Maybe Pockets is a better description. LOL

I like that you made burrito cozies. I never would have thunk it up myself.
