    It sounds like you’ve gotten a lot done during this genius hour! It’s great to hear that you plan to continue with your blanket project after this genius hour is over. Which item that you’ve made was your favorite?

    I honestly could not even imagine knitting so you are already put on a pedestal in my mind. I saw what you were doing the other day and it's crazy good, keep it going.

This week I made a bigger meal with sloppy joes, cornflake potatoes, and strawberry pretzel pie. I had to prepare some stuff in the morning, and then finish it that night. I started with the sloppy joes, which my mom helped me with this week, since I was busy. We got some ground beef out and put it in a crock pot to cook and heat up, then we put some packets of sloppy joe mix and some tomato paste. My family likes to serve them on toasted hamburger buns, so I buttered some and then broiled them for a couple of minutes. Broilers can be difficult sometimes, I was little bit late getting them out, so some of them burnt, but there were enough good ones where I didn't have to do it again. The next thing I made was cornflake potatoes, which I have already made in a previous blog. My sister was home and I had to make them again just for her, because they are her favorite. This time when I made them they turned out better, I cooked them a little longer so the cornflakes were crispi...

This week I finished knitting my scarf. I still have to knit the ends of the scarf together, because it is a cowl scarf, which is a round scarf that comes together. It is looking pretty good so far, except when I knit, I knit my stitches a little too tight. So my scarf is a little smaller than I think it is supposed to be, but it still looks right. I accomplished my goal for this week, which was to finish knitting my scarf and I am hoping to start my blanket here soon, but I still need to get the yarn. Also, I am still very ahead on my plan, so I think that I am going to be able to get a lot more of my blanket done in the time span that we have than I thought I was going to be able to do. For my blanket, I need to work on not knitting so tight, so it turns out the size it is supposed to be in the end.

Different cutting techniques is what I worked on and learned this week. The techniques that I tried are called julienne, slicing, large dice, and batonnet. I knew all of these techniques, except for batonnet, that one was a new one I learned. All these techniques I knew of, but I had not tried all of them before. The first one I tried was julienne, it is when you make long thin strips while cutting. I decided to use this technique on a carrot. First, I cut the carrot into long, wide strips, then you cut those into thin strips. I struggled a little with this one, because my knife wasn't quite sharp enough to cut the carrot into as thin of strips as I wanted. This is what the julienne cuts came out looking as. The batonnet cut was the one I had tried next. I had never heard of this technique before, but I had cut things like this before. For this cut you are supposed to square off your item, which I used a carrot, and make rectangular sticks. Squaring off your item means m...
