Delusions of Grandeur

(My geek friends will "get" the
Star Wars reference.)

Well, I did it again.
I think I bit off a little more than I can chew.
I don't know why I do this.

I do it all the time. It usually centers around one of the kids' birthdays. I get an idea, and in my brain, it sounds like a really great idea that doesn't take much time at all, and turns out perfectly. In reality... not so much.
I most recently did it when my 7 year old was about to have her birthday in January. I wanted to make her a perfect pretty Neapolitan Birthday Cake. It took hours, and it still didn't turn out as beautiful as I had pictured in my mind. Oh, and did I mention... this was the day before her birthday, and I had only finished half of my present shopping and wrapping?
Yes. Procrastination is definitely my strong point.

I've been on a crocheting kick lately, so  this time, my delusion is in the form of crochet project.... for my almost 5 year old's birthday... in less than a week...
Not to mention the fact that I haven't even started shopping for birthday presents or party favors yet... yeah... I'm a glutton for punishment!

I decided over the weekend that I wanted to crochet a new blanket for her. I chose the colors- they look brighter in person, and look awesome together!

Needless to say, this will likely be a slow blogging week for me. *sigh*
