And so goes the banana bread craze. I made the Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Banana Bread again and have concluded that it really isn't that great.
I've gone back to making the Maple Banana Bread one, which is so far the fav of the bunches I've made. For some reason it didn't work out either. Ahh! knitty nay has sent me her mom's banana bread recipe and I suspect it will be the last time in a long time that I will make banana bread again. Haven't made it yet.
Two nights ago I couldn't sleep and I finished off the other earring that I have been trying to have made for over a month now. Surprisingly, I made this second one in an hour. Geez. That was quick. I was showing off the earrings to my sis while in the car and clumsy me dropped one of 'em. It fell in the cracks between the seat and the center of the front two seats. I tried to get it out by hand but it didn't work. I moved the seat back and forth and I couldn't find it. It's gone! I don't know how I'm gonna be able to retrieve it back. I'll try to examine it again later. MIL had mentioned that she wanted me make one for her too so I'll need to get cracking on that.
I've also gotten quite some progress on the knitted dress for DD. All thanks to Addi Turbos. I was initially working on my Denise Interchangables but they were way too sticky for the stockinette part. It's great for projects where you don't want your stitches to fall off so easily, but for this project I need to work in stockinette for 16-1/2 inches w/ 300 sts/row. If I didn't purposely go out to my LYS for these Turbos I may've gotten carpal tunnel by now. Of which, Cottage Yarns gave me 10% off just by mentioning the knitting group. Wahoo!

That dress is so pretty! I've never knitted with beads--looks difficult.
