A hat and some fudge

Well, it is raining today - simply beautiful. I wish it would rain every day. I grew up in the desert of Arizona, so you can see where I get this sentiment.

Last night I made this little hat. I made it larger than the pattern called for (obviously) and I knit it in the round so it was even slightly larger than planned (forgot that without seaming it would be a bit larger)... So, Katie gets it. And she loves it!

This was a FAST knit (an hour or two) and the yarn is YUMMY.

Speaking of yummy ... I just tried a new EASY fudge recipe. Put 1 lb. (that's THREE cups, not the two that are in a normal bag) of chocolate chips and four TB of butter in the microwave. Watch it so it doesn't burn (I set mine for 15 sec between each "stir") and let it get "melty" (technical term). Then add one can of sweetened condensed milk and stir until combined. Put it into an 8x8 (buttered or saran wrapped) pan and put it in the fridge for a couple of hours. DIVINE. I am not a fudge fan, but DIVINE.
