In case you missed the drama of my oven fiasco on IG Stories earlier this week, you can get caught up over on the blog today! I write about my kitchen disasters so you can learn from my foolish ways.

Ya know, because I love ya. 🍏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Or, if you don't feel like reading words today (I don't blame you - it's Friday after all), you can just drool over the yummy apple photos instead. Either way, click that link yo. 📲 @stephaniecourtphotography ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Also, apple spice cake will have to wait until next week. The crockpot version didn't really work out as I'd hoped... 🍎⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are you up to in the kitchen today?💚⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #planoly #foodtographyschool #foodphotography #glutenfreeblogger #glutenfreebaking #glutenfreefood #apples #homemade #forkyeah #buzzfeast #eatseasonal #foodstagram #f52grams #livethelittlethings #twentiethstreetblog #twentiethstreetbakes #glutenfreelife #feedfeedbaking #imsomartha #abmlifeissweet #foodwinewomen #bakefromscratch #huffposttaste #buzzfeedfood #thekitchn #thebakefeed #fallrecipes #appleseason #kitchendisasters @thefeedfeed.glutenfree @foodbloggerpro @foodtographyschool

Decided around 10pm Monday night that I wanted to make a hat for myself. Finished this little lady in about 3 hrs. Gotta love those chunky yarns that work up quickly! 🧣 * When I was a sophomore in college, my friend @lamarlegend taught me how to knit. Totally out of nowhere, at some random theater school party where we were both feeling antisocial at that particular moment.🍻 * I didn’t know any technical terms other than knit & purl but my hands loved this new activity. I made a lot of scarves that year but never attempted anything more challenging than that. 😌 * Then I moved to CA, started law school, got busy with life and didn’t knit a single stitch for about 6 years. When I finally picked it up again, I needed a refresher. ✨ * I watched YouTube vids and looked in books. The most common cast-on method I kept seeing was the easy cast-on, so that’s what I did. It never really felt right in my hands but I couldn’t figure out what I was doing differently from my college days. ✨ * Fast-forward to *this* hat pattern that required a long-tail cast on. “Hmmm...what’s that again?” I wondered... 🤔 * I watched one YouTube vid and even though it looked complicated, it also looked familiar somehow. I picked up my needles and yarn and it was like my hands already knew what to do.🖐🏼 * The twisting and wrapping flowed naturally and this hat ended up being a near-perfect cast-on. Evenly spaced stitches with uniform tension and no gaps. Wha??? * Muscle memory took over without a second thought, a flip switched in my brain and I actually said, out loud to no one, “THIS is how I used to do it!!” And this ended up being one of the easiest, quickest projects I’ve ever done.🌸 * Moral of the story: trust your muscle memory. The tissues and fibers of our body contain a wealth of experiences and knowledge, even the ones our brains forget. Tune in and listen. If something doesn’t ‘feel’ right -no matter how small or insignificant- trust your body and muscle memory to figure it out.💜 * * * #knittersofinstagram #knittingaddict #wip #knitknitknit #knitting_inspiration #knittersofravelry #hobbies #autumniscoming #flashesofdelight #idlehands #workwithyourhands #knitprojects #yarnporn
