Craft Knife: 20 Hours in Ohio, and Free Doughnuts are a Lie
Afterwards, I managed to snooker us into not one, but TWO sightseeing stops!| craftknife.blogspot.com
If you see TWO people crying on a Civil War battlefield, then it's me AND a ghost!| Craft Knife
Do not even try to imagine how tickled I was when I figured out I could send each of my kids a corny, pun-themed care package that matched the color of the college merch that I could make for them, because your imagination will not even come close to how tickled I actually was.| Craft Knife
So yes, I DID violate the IP of the kid's college by recreating their school logo in fabric and appliqueing it to a decorative pillowcase, buuuuuut I also own several pieces of properly licensed merchandise purchased from the school bookstore, AND by the time she graduates I'll have paid the school far more than my own personal net worth in tuition.| Craft Knife
The Disney Villains Cookbook by Walt Disney Company| Craft Knife
I dunno, you guys. I already sell one-pound packages of homemade play dough, and it's awesome. One pound is a terrific amount of play dough for a kid. | Craft Knife

Las Vegas definitely has an effect on a person!| Craft Knife
Look at my luck, having the perfect view of so many beautiful sunrises on this trip!| Craft Knife
I went to Hell Creek and did NOT make the most important scientific breakthrough of my time. Humph!| Craft Knife
The kid's 21st birthday bash vacation seems to have been specifically chosen to be deeply troubling for just one parent. Was she traumatizing him back for the time when she was eight years old and really pissed him off so he grounded her from the library for a week?| Craft Knife
I'm not afraid of heights. The kid is not afraid of heights, as you well know. I'll leave it to your brilliant minds, then, to dial down to who among us had a medium-ish panic attack on the rim of the Grand Canyon in the middle of nowhere, scared the absolute snot out of the rest of us, and will never be visiting the Grand Canyon again if I, at least, have anything to do with it. | Craft Knife
Back in tropical weather, just a month after our last palm tree sighting!| craftknife.blogspot.com
And by "town," I mean my Pumpkin+Bear etsy shop, of course.| Craft Knife
I first wrote this tutorial for Crafting a Green World way back in 2014.| Craft Knife

From happiness, of course! Because LOOK at it!| Craft Knife
Last December, the big kid and I fulfilled her childhood Junior Ranger dream of stopping by the Johnstown Flood National Memorial on the way to pick her little sister up from college. The sun was setting as we walked around the site of the former Lake Conemaugh, just east of the former South Fork Dam. In the distance is the former Unger homestead, with the national park site's visitor center next to it.| craftknife.blogspot.com

At least, that's what you must do if you're in LA with me!| Craft Knife
Do you ever get pissed that you can't visit every place in the entire world and see every cool thing that there is to see?| Craft Knife
Went to Mexico in 2022 and somehow didn't try a single "Mayan" rum cake, dang it!| Craft Knife
Tbh, I'm not sure if the kid really even wanted a puff quilt that much, ahem, or if she was just expressing admiration for them and then I jumped on it because it looked like a cool thing to make.| Craft Knife
We maximized everyone's must-do list on this trip to San Diego! We went to the zoo. We ate Somali food. We toured Palomar Observatory. We had authentic Mexican food. We saw the desert and boated around the bay. | craftknife.blogspot.com
Remember how I told you that I could crochet anything, as long as it was rectangular and done in single crochet on hook size K?| craftknife.blogspot.com
One of my kids doesn't like chocolate, so I've gotten into the habit of doing my Easter prep super early, before the stores get picked over, always in search of that singular non-chocolate (and also non-white chocolate, because in the kid's mind, the only acceptable cocoa is hot cocoa, and even then only sometimes) Easter bunny. | craftknife.blogspot.com
It's probably not my least autistic characteristic, but I'm obsessed with it!| craftknife.blogspot.com
I was mostly going to the museum to see this ship, so the intense eye contact was a bonus.| Craft Knife
I first published this tutorial on Crafting a Green World.| Craft Knife
If you wanted to die due to your own stupidity, the desert would actually be a great place to do it!| craftknife.blogspot.com
Thank goodness that there's no such thing as the badge police! One of my favorite things about Girl Scouts is their emphasis on the kid-led experience, which to me is far preferable to a regimented set of practices. Girl Scouts are encouraged to explore their interests and make their own decisions, and they can move even the official badges in directions that aren't directly specified. | craftknife.blogspot.com
