Late January Crafting


“G” of GAIN had his Cub Scout Pinewood Derby on Saturday, his last race ever, since he’ll cross over to Boy Scouts in March. Here is his block of wood before and after — the black car with “01” to the front of the picture. He was aiming to have his car look like a Dodge Charger; the General Lee from Dukes of Hazard was his model.

“I” of GAIN and I watched a Chinese New Year talent show (the website is very out-dated, but correct). I keep wondering who my kin may be as I see the different audience members. I’ve been told that a man in Taiwan told my parents that I had to be of north Chinese descent.

Since I came home with a couple books from the library last week, “I” has been crafting many Chinese New Year decorations. We have no more red paper left in the house.
I have not taken much time to craft. I’ve made just a few rows of the remnant scarf and prayer shawl here and there. I did spend a little bit of time at the Crafty Crow — I guess Monday is giveaway day. I’ll have to remember that. I have my thoughts turned to cloth napkins lately, and the Japanese fabric offering looks quite suitable.
