I am Aunt Gladys

I really come from a wonderful heritage...full of nuts! One such nut is my late great Aunt Gladys. She was my Grandma Harmon's sister. I think much of my need to craft comes from Grandma and her sisters.
They did it all...knit, crochet, quill, make flowers out of tin cans, Felt wise men, grape clackers, and even puppies out of old gloves. You name it they crafted it. But I do remember Grandma guarding her current craft form Aunt Gladys, because she always said that if she showed Aunt Gladys what she was doing Aunt Gladys would have ten of them done before she finished one. I am Aunt Gladys. I went to Homemaking aka Home family and Personal enrichment meeting the other night and the sisters in our ward showed us "Learning to _______is fun to do."
I learned that if you always cut your brownies with a plastic knife, the brownies won't tear, that if you boil chicken breasts you can shred them with your electric beaters, but best of all I learned about "Fun Fur".
Sister Allen used one strand of it along with a strand of regular yarn and made a really cute loom hat. So of course I went out the next day, bought a skein and went home to make "A" hat. This lead to having to finish the hat already on the loom, deciding it was too small, finishing the hat on the bigger loom, making 3 fun fur hats to use the whole skein of yarn, going to get another skein, not finding one but getting another kind (which i did not like as well because it was harder to work with) and making another hat...which probably no one will wear because Jessica says they look like a bad hair day. Guess what every one is getting for Christmas!!!
