You ate what??!?

I ran to the grocery store on my lunch break the other day and happened to run into my mother in law with LJ. I walked over to get some mid-day hugs and kisses and LJ spots the microwave dinner in my hand. "Eat Poop" he says? Huh? Eat what? "Eat Poop" Silly kid. It's the funniest thing and I can't help but ask him over and over again to repeat himself. He's saying "Eat Soup", but his Ss don't come out quite right. HEHEHE

And today the sewing bug hit me and I couldn't be stopped. I finally tried a cloth grocery bag pattern that has intimidated me for a long time. It was actually quite simple and I can't wait to make a few more. I think they'd make great gifts to for someone going green.





The bag looks identical to a plastic grocery sack. The pattern is an actual plastic bag. I decreased the size of this one to use for my lunch bag to carry to work with me. I've been using plastic bags, but this one is sure cuter and much better for the environment.

Speaking of better for the environment...I've ordered one of these! They are so neat looking. I'm totally on board for re-usable bags, but the ones I bought from Publix just aren't cutting it. They don't fold down small so they're not all that convenient and I only use them for traveling and toting dirty laundry to the washer.



Here's a little video that tells all about the bags.


Then I got started on the kids' christmas gifts. They've been told that this year Santa needs a little help so they know they're getting them. I finished 2 pair for LJ and got a pair each cut out for the girls (not sewn yet)





And the last thing I got (mostly) finished was Trinity's scrub top for halloween. I still have to sew the black scrub pants and then she's finished. I may try to find a pattern for a wrap hat like docs wear. Not sure if she'll want that or not.
