I try to steer clear of overly commercialized craft products, but this one really got me. What sent me running out to buy one was actually the combination pen/glue stick that comes with each one. Why hasn't anyone thought of that before? And with one of those Michael's coupons, it was only about 6 dollars. The version I picked is "Doodle Red".<br />
<br />
I'm using my book as a little museum of the scraps of paper, pictures I've taken, and other (mostly) flat things I would never want to throw out. Here are some pages-in-progress from mine. There is still plenty of room for more stuff!<br />

<br />
At the moment I'm crocheting a little ripple baby blanket. I severely underestimated the amount of this chunky yarn I would need and have to get more before adding many more rows.<br />
<br />
I'm also experimenting with bottle caps and embroidery floss. This will be a trivet soon. I have about 20 more to cover before I have enough for the hexagon shape I'm aiming for.<br />

<img src="" /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/adaiha/7004726429/" title="potholder by Adaiha, on Flickr"><img alt="potholder" height="500" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7245/7004726429_b2f6d3ca33.jpg" width="500" /></a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
For a couple of years in a row I have watched <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/annual-dishcloth-swap">this potholder swap</a> from afar, but this year I found out about it in time! I've wanted to make more items out of crochet thread, and this was the perfect opportunity. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/adaiha/7004724621/" title="potholders by Adaiha, on Flickr"><img alt="potholders" height="500" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7055/7004724621_74974833c6.jpg" width="500" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The inner circle of the lacy tops is from
the "<a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/vintage-kitchen-trivets">vintage kitchen trivets</a>"
pattern by <a href="http://www.craftypod.com/">Diane Gilleland</a> in <i>Crochet Adorned</i>
by Linda Permann. It is meant to be worked
in worsted weight yarn, so the pattern ends
at about the second round of solid stitches
after the clusters. I'm super proud of
myself for figuring out how to do the two
open rows on the outer part of the circle
without ending up with a wavy mess! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I got
the idea to make the backs out of worsted
weight cotton yarn from <a href="http://chalklegs.com/2012/03/15/and-then-there-was-one/" id="yui_3_4_0_3_1332552700688_1104" rel="nofollow">chalklegs</a> (the same awesome person who alerted me that the swap is in progress). It saved a million years from the time it
would have taken to make a back out of
thread!! I even started one back in thread, but I unraveled it the second I saw her potholders. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I started out by making each side the same size, then I clamped them together at four or five points using binder clips. I experimented with a few different ways to crochet them together, and ultimately I worked one stitch into each stitch of the top, going through one back loop of the larger gauge back piece for every one to two stitches on the top. Then I added another round of evenly spaced chains (and a loop hanger!) to use as a base for the improvised scalloped border. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'll be back with the last two potholders soon! I've already made the tops, but I'm trying to pick the perfect colors for the backs. Why is that always the hardest part? </div>

Yay, I've kept up with this every Sunday for a year! I'd really like to thank my amazing <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/adaiha/contacts/">flickr friends</a> for sharing their photos. You truly do provide me with endless inspiration! It is almost impossible to narrow my favorites down to two dozen to feature each week. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Other than this, I've been a terrible blogger for at least a month. I'm still crocheting and making other things, but an extremely hectic work schedule and other real life things have left me feeling like taking a break from the internet. I think I'm over it now though. Expect to see a post in the very near future dedicated to these potholders I'm making .</div>

I finished this capelet last night, and I think I've gotten over some of the <a href="http://adaiha.blogspot.com/2012/02/what-ive-been-working-on-lately.html">doubt</a> I expressed about it the other day. It looks pretty cool! I'll probably even wear it from time to time. The <a href="http://www.lionbrand.com/patterns/60728AD.html?r=1">free pattern</a> from Lion Brand was super easy to follow, but next time I would go down a pattern size. I had already reduced my hook size after making the initial guage swatch from J to H; that could have been necessary because I substituted Loops & Threads Impeccable for the Vanna's Choice the pattern suggests. I went back to J to finish it off by adding a row of single crochet around all sides except for the bottom. The edges don't quite reach my elbows, which is exactly what I was going for with the length.</div>

I mostly crocheted this capelet just to have an excuse to use this awesome rhinestone pin that my mom gave me. It must be meant for shawls and the like because it has two prongs that you lift up to catch the layers and then press back down. </div>

I feel kind of bad about my lack of blogging of substance lately, so I thought I'd do a bit of an update about what sort of crafty things I've been doing. Most of it involves crochet. I figured I'd be a little burnt out on it after making <a href="http://adaiha.blogspot.com/p/about-my-granny-day-project.html">365 granny squares</a>. Apparently not!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The capelet above looks so great in the pattern, but I have to wonder if I'll ever wear it. The pattern calls for a J (6mm) hook, but my gauge swatch made it clear
that I needed to scale it back to an H (5mm) hook. Even then it is
coming out a little bigger than I would like. Someone commented to me that it looks super complex, but really it isn't at all. If you can get past the yoke part that involves a billion single crochet stitches, it goes pretty quickly with some chain stitches and clusters. I'm over halfway done after a couple of days of stitching, but I ran out of yarn. I should be back in business by tomorrow. </div>

A work friend gave me a big bag of yarn that her aunt who knitted left behind. Who doesn't love free yarn? All of it is sport weight or thinner. The first thing I thought to try to crochet with it were collars. This green one is the first I made, and in my usual fashion, I decided to make up my own pattern. Why do I do that? It would be so much easier to follow some tried and true instructions, but since I couldn't find a pattern I liked, I did this instead. Having said that, I really love the way it turned out.</div>

I had been
putting off sewing in the ends of several of my granny square afghans
because when I finished putting them together, it was summer, and the
last thing I wanted to do was to bury myself under hot blankets for
hours. Now that it is freezing outside and in, it is the only thing I
want to do. Oddly enough, I still don't really want to spend time
sewing in a hundred million scraps of yarn. Since no one wants an afghan that would fall apart in the wash, it is kind of necessary though. The afghan above is about halfway done, and the one below (the super gigantic Square A Day In May blanket) is totally complete. My mom has discovered my blog and has picked out an afghan that she really wants. Because for some reason the words we use for colors just don't synch up, I'm not 100% sure if she means the one above or the one below. All I know for sure is that I'm never parting with the huge one! I hope she wants the first one!</div>

I made the top for this quilt way more than a year ago, so when someone gifted me a big roll of quilt batting, finishing this project was the first thing that came to mind. I'm starting to think that this particular batting wasn't meant for machine quilting because my sewing machine hates it. Either that or I'm just not a natural born quilter or maybe I'm just impatient and need more practice. I decided to hand tie it instead (just like the last and only <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/adaiha/3559447343/">other quilt</a> I have made). I'm finishing it using a self-binding method that I've seen in a few places around the internet (Carina explains it wonderfully <a href="http://carinascraftblog.wardi.dk/2011/04/tutorial-self-binding-quilt.html">here</a>). I'm almost done, but leaning over it to sew the edges up was killing my back so I've put it on the back burner yet again. For a little while this time.</div>

I finally found the <a href="http://notsohumblepie.blogspot.com/2010/09/peanut-butter-sandwich-cookies.html">perfect recipe</a> to use with these cute little cookie cutters I found at the Asian grocery store the other week. These peanut butter sandwich cookies were super easy to make, and they held the impressions from the stamps really well.<br />

The dough definitely needs to be chilled for a while before use. For the second batch I made, I left very little room between cookies, and it wasn't a problem. As long as I rolled the dough out pretty thin, the cookies didn't spread much while baking. The recipe says to keep them in the oven for 20 minutes, but I found about 15 minutes to be enough. I'm chalking that up to these little cookie cutters. They're about 1.5" in diameter. I didn't need to use the cream in the filling, and it was way less messy to spread when I broke out my frosting gun (I think it is technically called a decorator press). I'm thinking of making another batch of hearts to take to work for Valentine's day!</div>

I really wish I had a better pancake picture to share. I have this one recipe in my recipe box that always comes out just perfectly every time. I normally make them plain, but the ones above were made with a cinnamon roll inspired topping. You can try them either way.<br />
<br />
<br />
<u><b>awesome pancakes</b></u><br />
<br />
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour<br />
2 teaspoons baking powder<br />
3/4 teaspoon salt<br />
2 tablespoons sugar<br />
1 1/4 cups milk<br />
2 large eggs<br />
1 teaspoon vanilla<br />
3 tablespoons melted butter<br />
<br />
Stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. In a separate bowl, beat the milk, eggs, vanilla, and butter. When the mixture becomes frothy, blend in the dry ingredients. <br />
<br />
Preheat the griddle to about 350°F. Pour 1/4* cupfuls of batter onto the hot surface, leaving plenty of space for them to spread out. (I tend to forget this part!) Add any extra ingredients at this time (like the cinnamon roll topping or blueberries). Once the bubbles that form start making it to the surface, flip them over and cook for another minute or two. <br />
<br />
yield: about a dozen 5" pancakes<br />
<br />
<u><b>cinnamon roll topping</b></u><br />
<br />
1/4 cup melted butter<br />
1/2 cup brown sugar<br />
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon<br />
1/4 cup chopped pecans <br />
<br />
<br />
*I use a 1/2 cup measuring spoon to pour the batter, but I only pour out half. It is kind of thick and sticky, and I'm too lazy to use a bowl scraper when I don't have to.<br />
<br />
I looked around the web to see if anyone else made cinnamon roll pancakes, and I found these adorable <a href="http://www.simplymodernmom.com/2011/11/mini-cinnamon-roll-pancakes-by-not-martha/">mini ones</a>.

After my laptop was stolen a couple of years ago and just about every picture I had was instantly gone, I decided that I needed to do two things. The first was to back up all of my photos on Flickr. If I don't want to share them, I can always change the privacy settings. The second thing was to have more photos printed. I thought it would be pretty expensive, but I was surprised to find that depending on the special of the week at Walgreens, you can get 100 4" x 6" photos for around $10 or less. And if you have a lot of square photos like I do, you can fit multiple smaller pictures per print with a little help from Photoshop. It can be crazy the amount of little pictures you can get at one time if you are willing to cut them apart yourself, which I totally am.<br />
<br />
Lately I've been looking for books to hold all of these photos at thrift stores, and when I saw this 4-ring ledger for maybe 50 cents I knew I could use it. </div>

I am trying to find the perfect picture for the front to cover up the word "executive", but for now the big letter stickers get the point across. The gray and white marbled paper inside really had to go. I had printed out some of my granny square mosaics a while back that were perfect for covering it up.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
For the inside I made 5 x 8 pages mostly of scraps of paper, original pages from the ledger, and some paint chips I have been collecting. I was able to fit about 100 pictures on these 22 pages, but I still have hundreds left over. I see more photo books in my future, but first I need to get some more glue.</div>

At the moment I am searching for the perfect recipe to use for these super cute cookie cutters I bought at the Asian grocery store yesterday. Do you have a go-to recipe that holds it's shape and doesn't require icing to taste good? I want the details of the little stamps to show up in the baked cookie. I am leaning towards a couple of cream cheese sugar cookie recipes, but I'm open to anything. <br />

It seems like most of <a href="http://pinterest.com/adaiha/">my pins</a> on pinterest are related to crafts or food. One of our plans for the new year around my house is to make more food at home, and it is not hard to get motivated to do so with all of the great recipes all over the blog world. Here are five I plan to make soon!</div>
