Knitting for a causeAfter coming up with a list of potential new hobbies, I knew I wanted to challenge myself to something completely new. That's when I decided that I wanted to learn how to knit scarves.
From watching videos on Youtube, I finally figured out how to get started. Now, since I'm a total beginner, I learned that the bulkier the yarn the easier it is to learn how to knit. Therefore, I'm concentrating on bulky yarn so far. And in regards to needles, I've been utilizing [description of needles].

BakingThe year 2017 was a very special year because I was finally going to feel settled into my new home in Orange County. Not only was this a new home but, that also meant that I was going to enjoy a fully loaded kitchen too. So, as I was trying to figure out a New Year's resolution, it only made sense to find something that I enjoy and that I could challenge myself in learning new. Baking!
Although I love baked goods, I never really dared to bake, neither did I have the kitchen capacity since I have lived in rental apartments in San Francisco for 10 years. |
