Pioneer Woman at Heart

You finally get to see it.  We had our very last Christ mas-fam ily gatheri ng ye sterday. Here is what I gifted this year for Christmas.  1/2 pint jars of hom e canned s weet pickle relish 4 oz jars of hom e canned Queen Anne's Lace Jelly   Mom received a set 

. . . crocheted a few washcloths, with yarn I had in my stash.  These are made with a 2-ply, 100% cotton yarn.  At the time I purchased the yarn, yellow and white where the only two colors in 2-ply.  It makes a thinner cloth and dries faster. I simply used single crochet for these. (I really like the 2-ply for a hand towel, versus the 4 ply cotton.  I will be making more until my  yarn is used up)

Getting to the barn and back, and out there and back again, was no easy task yesterday.  We woke up to frigid temperatures after being spoiled rotten with warm weather.  However, all that half melted slush, froze, and muck boots don't have spikes on the bottom.  It took everything I had, to get back with the eggs and not fall (and break any or break something on me).
