Hand Crochet Baby Hats Caps

This fall, I did a lot of crocheting while at my dad's in Montana. We were there several times and I get bored just watching television. Gotta keep my hands busy!!

 

I had lots of cotton yarn and started making baby hats . . . . . . lots of them! It's a fun pattern to make and quick to do!! The problem is, I don't have any youngsters this age!! No kids, grandkids or heaven forbid great grandkids, yet!! So, guess what! They are for sale!!

 

These are all made from new 100% cotton thread, and are fully washable and dryable. The measurements are 4.5-5" from edge to crown and about 13" around. Made for the newborn-3 month old in mind. Simple crochet with ribbing at the edge. The button is there mostly for looks, although it is useable.

 

As with any new item, be sure you wash and dry before having the baby wear it. Our home is smoke free and pet friendly.

 

So, take your pick!

Christmas Recipes

Okay, the last minute preparations are upon us!! Everyone is scrambling to get finished!! Need a couple of last minute recipes?? Here are a couple of great salad recipes and a couple of great breakfast recipes!! Enjoy!!

Cheese Strata
2 cups ( 3 slices) bread cubes, trimmed
1/2 lb sharp cheddar cheese cubed
1/2 lb bacon, cooked and crumbled (ham or shrimp can be substituted)
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 lb fresh whole mushrooms
3 large eggs
1 3/4 cup milk
1 tsp prepared mustard
1/4 tsp salt

Makes 6 servings:

In greased 9X13 glass cake pan, place 1/2 bread cubes in a layer. Layer half the cheese, bacon and butter. Repeat layers and arrange the mushrooms (sliced) on top. Bake uncovered at 300 degrees for 1 hour.

Note: this is better if prepared in advance and refrigerated overnight until baking time.
(Thank you, Carol!!)


Elizabethan Salad (also known as the Pink Stuff)
1 large pkg Orange Jello
½ cup sugar
1 12oz container Cool Whip
1 lg can crushed pineapple, drained
4-5 bananas (depends on how many you want)

Boil 2 cups water, dissolve Jello and sugar together. Add 2 cups cold water. Let set PARTIALLY (until it’s like runny slime!!). Fold in Cool Whip, add pineapple and bananas and let set completely.

 

I use a frosted and clear bowl. Looks very festive. We have this every year . . . .

Alcohol . . . . . simple and cheap!!

Okay, I’ve used alcohol for several years for removing sticker residue, cleaning laptops, smudges and the like. And I was quite surprised when I found that it can even remove permanent marker (usually). I even wipe down books with slick covers. Just pour a little alcohol on a rag and wipe. Cleans them right up and it dries fast so it doesn’t damage anything. Great for wiping laptops, electronic items, etc. because again, it dries FAST and you are only wiping off the item, not dunking it.

Ever notice your telephone? Doesn’t matter if it’s landline or cell, they BOTH get grungy if you don’t wipe them off once in awhile. Eeeuuuuuwwww!!! Remote controls, too! Have you looked at yours recently?

 

How about your dry erase board? I have one that must be about 8 years old. I keep it around because I like the red. It gets pretty stained with the grandkids leaving messages all over it!! I just take a paper towel, pour a little alcohol on it and rub off the residue! Much cheaper than that spray cleaner! Just look at the before and after pictures!!

Fingerprints on CD's and DVD's? Just use a soft cloth and a little rubbing alcohol.

 

So I keep a bottle around just for cleaning projects!! And there ARE different strengths!! Some are stronger than others.

On the cautionary side, always be aware of what you are using it on. Sometimes alcohol can ruin the object you are trying to clean.

Keep good ventilation. The smell can be quite overpowering. And if dryness is an issue, use gloves to protect your hands.

ALWAYS keep away from fire and heat sources!! Alcohol is extremely flammable!!

I still keep it in the bathroom for the antiseptic qualities, cleaning pierced ears, stop itch on mosquito and bug bites and such but have just upped the use!!

Oh, did you know that if you get into poison ivy, the best thing to do is SCRUB with a degreasing dish soap like Dawn and then rub down with alcohol. This will cut the oily residue and help prevent the rash.

Sometimes the old fashioned products can still serve us well!!!

 

Put your thinking cap on!! What unusual item do you use?

 

Speaking of old fashioned, you can always find LOTS of great vintage items on OLA.com!!

 

Just look at a few of the items that I found!!!
