Christening Rose Afghan

This is my christening rose afghan. Am calling it a "throw" because it is only 31 x 40 inches. Adapted from this pattern for color and difficulty.

DP-BBQ

Courtney sent us Dr. Pepper BBQ Sauce (made not in Texas, but Chicago, Illinois-- blaspheme!), and it is fantastic! However, if you want to microwave it on top of chicken (which I recommend), cover with plastic wrap or suffer the above consequences.

Flower Afghan

These are the pieces of the new blanket I'm making. The flowers are pink, red, and maroon. The blanket will be 5 squares x 7 squares and is based on a pattern from "Join-As-You-Go Afghans" called "Christening Rose" by Maria Merlino, adapted to my beginner crocheter abilities.

Cool Zone

This is a picture I took while leaving Houston, the first year I lived in Texas (2005). There's this great ferris wheel at a carnival called the "Cool Zone". Or at least, that's what I've surmised from the picture once I got home. One day, I'll get to the top of that ferris wheel.
