Let oats soak in milk.

Mash a banana and add to wet ingredients. The riper the better (as they have a better muffin-texture and are sweeter!). The best are bananas that have entirely gone brown, which you can save and keep in the freezer for just this occasion!

egg for muffin

Add 1 egg.

dry muffin

Sift dry ingredients together.

stir flour muffin

stir more muffin

Mix all. Add in just enough chocolate chips.

Snapshots from work this month. I made a LOT of pa Snapshots from work this month. I made a LOT of paper snowflakes—which was good fun. I hadn’t tried my hand at them in years, but ended up making them for many kids. My favorite moment of snowflake-making was probably taking a request from two first grade boys, who turned to each other as I worked and said, genuinely impressed but in fake ‘let’s pretend we’re teenagers’ voices: 
“BROOOO are you seeing that??”
“Bro YES. How is she DOING that?” 
They eventually decided to open a snowflake store, picking up my finished creation and saying “let’s sell this and say we made it!” The most adorable scammers I’ve met 😉 

But speaking of things they *actually* made, 4th slide has some creations from an art table I ran when we had cardboard and the need for last-minute crafting. Not shown is an amazing 3-story-building-complex constructed by one previously-mentioned first grader. 

Lastly, a gorgeous sunset, because we are often graced with some very lovely ones at the end of the day on the playground. Between that and the many flocks of birds, I think it’s quite a lovely place. :) 

Oh, and today we had a dance party! By the end I was very exhausted. It was lots of fun though—I always look forward to music and movement. Somewhere in the middle of that, I taught a young girl how to waltz. She took a break from cartwheels and asked me to teach her ballroom dancing—which I guess she assumed I knew. (Luckily I learned some steps at a historical museum as a kid and committed them to memory for princess reasons.) It was a funny contrast to the music accompanying us... which was, like, Uptown Funk and student-requested tracks such as music from Sonic the Hedgehog.

First project of the new year happened to be beadi First project of the new year happened to be beading some arm jewelry~ I’ve always thought these can be really beautiful. I was day-dreamily looking at photos of some online and decided to get out my bead box and try my hand at making one of my own. I ran out of silver chain, so I’ll need more in order to finish this piece (the design is done, but I need more material for attachment purposes, so it doesn’t flop every which way while being worn!) ✨I had a very lovely New Years (best friends and waffles, what more could you ask for ☺️) but I can’t say I feel as reset in my mind as I often do. I’m tired and can’t say I know what to expect: but here’s to creating beautiful things, embracing kindness, and following inspiration wherever it leads us. #beading #armjewelry #chainjewelry #newyear #homemadejewelry #handmadejewelry

Took a couple hours, but I decided to hand-do the Took a couple hours, but I decided to hand-do the visible portion of the hem.

Hat 🌟 I’m really happy with how this turned o Hat 🌟 I’m really happy with how this turned out! I feel this is definitely the best hat I’ve made to date. I patterned it myself, and cut out my fabric + thick interfacing yesterday. Then this evening I sewed/assembled/decorated it all. It was a really fun project to do! 🧵With this done, all that’s left is to hem my skirt and alter the petticoat. The plan is 1950s-inspired witch. :) I’ve never done a super “classic” Halloween costume before, so I thought witch could be a fun idea to play with—especially with an old-fashioned twist. Maybe I can pretend I’m in my own black & white TV show ☺️ Looking forward to our cozy Halloween! We’re planning a little party for just ourselves, and the feel we’re going for is homey/classic/retro/quaint. Good vibes. ✨ #halloweencostume #halloweensewing #hatmaking #witchhat #fallsewing #sewingprocess #cozyhalloween

She’s coming along 🙂 ✨ *not on a proper dress She’s coming along :) ✨ *not on a proper dress form, ignore the lumps lol!* ~ Today I decided to try out my serger, to finish the raw edges. (That went mostly great, until it ran out of thread near the very end. After that I watched numerous videos but couldn’t get it working again. Might have given up after what felt like an hour of trying to fix it.) I also added my pockets (my precious!), sewed up the side seams, added a nice pocket edge stitch (so satisfying), and attached the waistband. (Twice. It needed basting, but second time it went on great.) I then added my button and button hole by hand. I’m hanging it overnight now and will do the hemming sometime in the next few days! In the meanwhile I have a petticoat to alter... and an accessory to make! #homesewing #halloweensewing #sewingproject #sewingprogress #fallsewing
Skirt progress! Last week I created a pattern and Skirt progress! Last week I created a pattern and cut all the fabric. I wanted an 8-panel circle skirt, and I’m loving how my design idea is shaping up so far. Today I started by adding an invisible zipper, then I went on to sewing the other panels into a ‘front’ and ‘back’, leaving the sides unattached for now so that I can add my pockets. 🧵#homesewing #halloweensewing #fallsewing #originaldesign #sewingproject #sewingprocess #patterning
