My little burrito!

My friend, Lindsay, gave me this pattern to make a "snuggler" or swaddle blanket or as we will call it in my family a burrito. It is was labeled a simple sewing pattern but if it weren't for my friend walking my through it, I don't think I could have figured it out. Maybe I am just incompetent, I don't know. All I know is it was not as simple as they claimed it to be. Now that I have done one, the next ones will go a lot faster. Anyway, I am excited to put little Enrique in his burrito! Here is a link to the pattern:

White Trash Tomato Plant

So, I went to buy one of those Topsy Turvy tomato plant things at Ace Hardware and the guy who worked there talked me out of it. He said he always makes his own and they work just fine. So I thought I would give it a go. I used an empty ice cream container, cut a hole in the bottom, put my plant in upside down and then filled it with soil. Now, we wait for the tomatoes.
