HI YA'LL!

Hiiiiiiiii!!!!
Remember me?

I'm Anneli, the crochet/baking/gardening/photography blogger...
Oh, yeah. The one who hasn't posted in over a month?!?! 

*shhhhhhhh*

I seriously don't know where the time has gone. Well, I do, but let's just say it was work. No, it was school. No, I was a little under the weather. Ok, so I was a lot under the weather. 

But things are getting better! I have even managed to catch a cold, which is super typical since we are flying to Florida for Christmas on Friday...and I have never flown without being sick. It's just a thing I do apparently. Trans-Atlantic flights might be too enjoyable otherwise. 
(heavy dose of sarcasm there if you didn't catch it)


So you're wondering, what has she gotten up to in the past month? How could I have kept you in suspense? 
Well, not much has really happened here craft wise, baking wise, or even photography wise. (I cringe when I think about my grand plans for my 365 photo project). I've just kinda...been. And mostly glorious it has been. 
I guess you don't realize you're running on fumes until you're forced to rest. 

But fortunately, things are getting better and I am finding my inspiration again for all things I love to do. And energy to do it!!!

The main project I've been toiling away with when able, is the granny square blanket for my godmother. If you're the praying type, send one her way as things aren't looking good. And if you're not the praying type, send mental good vibes :) Every bit helps, I'm sure of it!


In these hard times, making this blanket for her has become incredibly sad but therapeutic. I so badly want her to be wrapped up in something I have made for her with every ounce of love tied into every stitch. 
That's the beautiful thing about crochet, if you're making something for someone, you can't help but think of that person and what they mean as you make it. Literally crocheted with love.


I suppose I ought to get to crocheting the squares together if I plan on finishing it before Friday!

Thanks for popping by and hopefully not forgetting about me! 
I'll try to make more of an appearance in the coming months. :)
