\nAs you can see, I sewed in the zipper, and Peppermint Candy, the 2x2x3x1 ribby <\/a>by Bonne Marie, is complete! The pattern is great, but I did some weird stuff to it, so initially I was not thrilled with it. After wearing it for a few minutes, though, it began to grow on me. It is very toasty and comfy, so despite the monkey arms and the short body and the incredibly crappy underarm seaming, I like it okay. The photo was taken by the one-and-only Action Hero Melissa<\/a>. We went to lunch today at clarklewis, a new restaurant in an industrial section of town. It was quite yummy, and as a bonus we got to watch them butcher some large animals (I wasn’t in FFA, so I could not identify the skinned animal).
\nOn the way home, I stopped by Saint Honore Bakery, the fancy French bakery, for some treats. I had a hankering for a cookie, but there weren’t any (the horror!). I ended up getting a couple of outrageously priced eclairs:

\nAs you can see, it is not a particularly large eclair. The price? $3.75 each. If it were hedonistically delicious, it’d be worth it. Sadly, the pastry was a bit on the soggy side, and the pastry cream was good but not great. Okay, so I wasn’t that sad, because I’m really NOT that picky about my treats, but you know, I was trying to be scientific about it all.
\nI also stopped by a party supply place that was around the corner from clarklewis and picked up a few things, including a little easter surprise for my crazy old father:
