More felt


I had to try again, just to wash the taste of that scarf away. And this is better… but I think this technique just isn’t for me. So that’s it for felting with silk hankies.

Moving on, some Emily art! This is two girls playing a clapping game in the vein of “Miss Mary Mack.” The game is called Double Double. I had to look it up since this isn’t one that I did as a child. I guess it’s one Emily does, though, because I got her to demonstrate it for me and she did it correctly and without hesitation.

I like that she properly has them sitting to do it, and that she puts them in profile instead of facing forward with their hands to the side or some such. Good eye.

We heard from her teacher today that Emily is auditioning for the end of year school talent show. Her talent will be telling jokes. She’s going to tell five. Emily’s jokes can be a little surreal sometimes, but I’m confident she’ll do a good job. She tells jokes to her classmates every day as they’re lining up for lunch, and apparently gets good laughs.

She’s always trying to come up with new material at home, then she asks “is that funny?” That’s always a tough line to walk. You want to encourage her, but you don’t want to lie and then have her bomb in front of a non-Mom crowd. I wrote a new joke for her the other day. Wanna hear it? Of course you do!

Q: Why did the hen take her egg to the doctor?
A: It was time for a chick-up!

Thank you! I’ll be here all week! Don’t forget to tip your servers!

Okay, onward to the Jayne hat portion of the day. Hats up for: Dallas, Dallas, and Austria.

Y’all have a good one!

    Chick-up, love it!

    And the felting reminds me of abalone and mother of pearl 🙂

    She can use Duncan’s latest comedy effort if she wants….

    Ahem.

    What do you get when you take Polly to the North Pole?

    Paradise! (Parrot-Ice, get it?)
