Are You Blue? CTB Day #4

Are You Blue? CTB Day #4

Electric blue pants! Wowza! It’s Celebrate the BOY 2013 Day #4 and for me it’s all about color — and pockets! Rae posted (twice!) on Monday about color — More Color! and Saffron Pants — and it was definitely inspirational. And since it seems Eli is growing out of his pants on a daily basis lately, what better way to embrace color than a new pair of boy pants! These pants are kind of like a bear hug of color, I think.

It feels like it’s been a long winter and the past couple days here have been either rainy or overcast. I guess “gloomy” seems like an accurate description for the weather. Let’s just say, it’s a good thing there’s no chocolate in my house right now, because it feels like the kind of day that’s perfect for sitting on the couch, watching crappy television shows and eating chocolate. A shot of color is the perfect mood-booster for days like this.

This was my first time making box pleat pockets – inspired by Rae’s Saffron Pants post. I love them, although I wished I’d cut them wider (next time!). Eli, of course, loves the animal pattern pocket flaps. “Thank you, Mommy, for making these cool pockets for me. Thank you, Mommy, for making these pants for me.” Followed by a hug. I’m telling you, he knows how to work it.

Drugs that are used to treat impotence like buy viagra online, viagra, and cheapest viagra are some of the drugs that are manufactured using the same proprietary formulas and active ingredients as name brand drugs after a company’s patent, and exclusive right to manufacture that drug, has run out. So, what do you think about the color? It’s a team divided in our house. My husband questioned whether these were really “boy” pants because of the color. Of course, this is coming from someone whose wardrobe is 95% khaki, navy and white, with a bit of denim thrown in. (Yes, honey, if you’re reading this, I am poking fun.) I feel that at age 3 and a half, you can pretty much wear any color you want. I guess you could say, I’m team blue on this one.

I’m taking tomorrow off from posting. Have a great, colorful weekend!

 

Barefoot Chef: CTB Day #3

Barefoot Chef: CTB Day #3

Woo hoo, guess who is making dinner tonight! My little barefoot chef.

I guess that means mac ‘n cheese is on the menu. And ketchup. Definitely lots of ketchup. Heck, if it means a night off from dinner duty, I’m game for pretty much whatever he’s serving.

It’s Celebrate the Boy series day #3. Admittedly I did not sew this apron this week. It was my Christmas gift to Eli, but I realized I never shared pictures. Last year I decided it would be great to give each of my children something handmade for every Christmas, and since Eli loves helping in the kitchen and loves trucks, this apron was the perfect fit this past year. It was also warmly welcomed by my husband who had grown weary of seeing Eli in my pink, floral aprons. Ha!

This apron was easy-peasy to make, especially since I used a continuous run of bias tape to create the ties and neck trim.  It means the neck loop isn’t adjustable, but that’s not a detail to sweat in this situation. I only had one yard of this fabric, which I’d purchased for Eli’s truck-themed birthday party to use as a table cover for the dessert table, and it was plenty. If anything, I could have made the apron shorter. I used an old t-shirt to make the pocket because the color reminded me of road work signs. I was hoping to find bias tape in a matching yellow, but this orange was the closest I could find.

 

Eat well!
