Cape Crew

OK
Now I have two sets done.

One set that's knitted and one set that is crocheted.

The hat for the crochet cape took one hour to make. It was soo easy and it's soo cute with shell designs.
They both have matching crochet flowers to go with them.

The knitted set is much warmer since the holes are smaller.
Its supposed to be good for up to 4 year olds.

I still have thread left over from the big roll to make another hat if I want to but I think I have done enough lol

My son is upset cause he says I make things no one wears so he wants a cape.
I told him I only have pink thread and he said he didn't care. He will wear it. lol
I find ponchos or capes extremely comfortable for weather that requires layering.
BC has that type of climate. You can wear a jacket and slip it over and the warmth is amazing.
And if it's raining well , a cape is good because it will take a while to soak through.

Well when my son has a daughter some day, She will have her Grammas stuff to wear. By then I will probably not be in any condition to do these things, knowing him.....if he gets any children that is. One never knows what lies ahead in life.

In the mean time, from Lions brand, I found a very nice mens' cape pattern but I need the longer circular needles for it because it has a lot of stitching on it. Its easier to make things for little ones because the work is done quicker and it costs less and I already had the needles. I used six of them to make the seamless circle.
I will have to rummage through the colors I have and see if I can design something for him.

It will NOT be pink lol

Today I have curry chicken marinated overnightfor supper and this morning I put lamb to marinate in curry overnight for tomorrow, with yogurt and garlic.
Curry is supposed to be good for you.
We used to eat such good curry lamb at this restaurant and I have yet to find out how they did it.
It was so popular that they would always run out. Then they changed the chef and we could not get it for a while.
Once we asked if they had it and they said yes but when we received it, it looked funny. We analyzed the meat and saw that they collected leftovers from other peoples plates and gave it to us to eat. lol
That's just as bad as the meat glue they put into meat today.
Needless to say, we never went back.

Today people get sick and no one knows why.
Well, here are two possible reasons.
Have a great Thursday every one.

University life is fun .

Not only is March break a riot but during the year there is always something going on to entertain and impress you.

We had a group of friends we studied with . One was a foreigner from the middle east.

I never quite knew from which country exactly but he was a happy go lucky fellow, always smiling and laughing.

He was a nice looking guy with curly black hair and mischievous dark eyes with long eyelashes,

some would call bedroom eyes.

We had this pizza place we went to quite frequently.

One day the waitress came to take our orders and after finishing with us she came to this fellow.

He said, looking at the menu, he wanted an all dressed pizza.

He waited for her to write this down and then he began slowly to undress the pizza.

He said oh…….I don’t want the anchovies. So she scratched it off

And…..oh take off the green peppers. So she scratched it off

Oh and I don’t think I want the pepperoni either. So she scratched it off

The waitress was a very busy girl and taking all this down very professionally and seriously.

After each scratch she kept wanting to leave to put in the order but he kept pulling her back.

He went on to take off the olives and then the sausage and then the cheese and then the pizza sauce.

Once he got to that, everyone was sitting watching her face change and her eyes grow big, as she realized that the pizza was no longer

All dressed but completely naked.

She stopped and looked at him finally with her mouth open and he sat there,

his usual smiling bratty self .

The whole scenario was uncomfortably hilarious.

As we all cracked up she did too and then he said ok .Just give me the all dressed.

By this time her pad was a complete mess and I am sure she had to rewrite the order on a new order sheet.

But now she also loosened up and I guess this little prank brightened up her day as well.

I mean.......

How could any one resist such a handsome guy with those bedroom eyes, slowly undressing a pizza in front of her eyes.lol

I don’t know who heard this story. It happened quite a while back.

One diplomatic incident took place in China .

There was a couple from France who always carried around a little frou frou

of a poodle around with them.

When they came to this restaurant in China to eat, they gave in their coats and the little dog.

They enjoyed their evening with a few other couples, and then paid their bill and went

to get their coats

The coats came but there was no little dog so they asked them for their little dog.

The restaurant was confused. They asked what little dog?

The couple said when we gave in our coats, we gave in our little dog.

The restaurant manager said:

“But Sir, you ate the dog. We prepared it for you.”

At which point the woman fainted.

What a catastrophe.

In China people bring in their own food to be cooked by the restaurant chef.

I remember once I was invited to celebrate Chinese New Years in Montreal, and my friend brought a fish to be cooked.

After she gave it in I asked her why she brought a fish and she said she liked this fish and she wanted it cooked for tonights meal.

She explained it was a very normal custom so when I heard this story I was not surprised, although I know how devastated the couple must have felt losing their precious dog this way.

I personally would be in the bathroom throwing up .

There is nothing worse than not knowing what you ate and then especially when you find out its your own pet.

lol

LIFE"S LIKE THAT.....ISN'T IT???

A group of 40 years old buddies discuss where they should go for dinner. Finally it is agreed that they should meet at the Gausthofzum Lowen restaurant because the waitress's there have low cut blouses and nice breasts.

10 years later, at 50 years of age, the group meets again and once again they discuss where they should meet.
Finally it is agreed that they should meet at the Gausthof zum Lowen because the food there is very good and the wine selection is good also.

10 years later at 60 years of age, the group meets again and once again they discuss where they should meet.
Finally it is agreed that they should meet at the Gausthof zum Lowen, for the peace and quiet and the restaurant is smoke free.

10 years later, at 70 years of age, the group meets again and once again they discuss where they should meet.
Finally it is agreed that they should meet at the Gausthof zum Lowen because the restaurant is wheel chair accessible and they even have an elevator.
