It’s Foodie Pen Pal time! I got this delicious package from Wine to Weightlifting.
She sent me green tea, pumpkin butter, chocolate bar, a bunch of chocolate candies, apples and a toy for my kitties!!! How cool is that! Pippi and Mimi love it!
All of it is amazing. The candies are all gone and the apples went into my apple dutch baby.
This week I made origami kitty bookmarks.
Let me tell you origami is not my thing. I asked my friend to give me a lot of help.
Annie is a really crafty person, she is more of a fiber arts person. She blogs about her knitting and sewing over at handspun rainbows.
Here is the video tutorial. I think some of the steps are super tricky. Annie had a little difficulty, but ultimately we prevailed and created these adorable kitties!!
