Day 26- Yarn, Steak, and More Yarn

Yesterday was a yarn day. I had an idea for a project, and hunted Ravelry.com for something to use as a base for it. I found 2 perfect patterns, and combined them. Joy!

Lotus meant to hold a tealight.

Seated Siddhartha, but unfinished here.

Combined, they made this:

I need to find a bead for a bindi and weave in the ends, and sew the Buddha figure into the center of the lotus, but for the most part it's done. I want to make a few more to sell on Etsy, now that I have both halves of the project figured out. Started it all yesterday afternoon, took a break in the evening, and finished it a couple hours ago. So happy about this project.

Last night for dinner I cooked up a couple steaks. I had one with the last of the whipped cauliflower and some spinach:

Delicious!

I haven't even had today's butter coffee, as I fed the cat and went right to work making Buddha's topknot and halo. It's after 11, I may just have the remaining steak or cook up some eggs. Not sure. I'm too eager to crochet some more because those lotus flowers are kind of fun. Yarn trumps food. :P
