hey everybody! ready to go bananas? a couple of days ago i made the most amazing thing my toes have ever felt. but first...
have you ever used these? i pick them up every now and again in the seasoning section to have an "off" night from cooking.
everything just goes in the bag they provide. amazing! i put this together this morning and kept it in the fridge til dinner time. it's all self contained. meat & veggies.
have you seen a rice heating bag? i just made 4! teeheehee. i made one and jack loved it so much he begged me to make him one as well. well, then of course finney needed one. i was happy to oblige them, and they've been sleeping with them ever since. then, since i was on a crazy crafting roll, i made another for good measure. i have been sleeping with mine toasting my toes. currently it's on my back easing my muscles. sigh.
the heating bag i made for myself is larger so it used this entire bag of rice in it.
to make it smelly lovely, as opposed to ricey, i cut open 4 yummy smelly tea bags and added it to the rice. stir it up.
i basically just sewed a big pillow case. sew it inside out and then turn it out. super simple. you too can sew this!
see. a big sack. so i was trying really really hard to be fancy like her and make it into four little segments. i probably could have, but i ran out of rice. i think i just put too much in each segment. for the boys, i literally just sewed up small squares full of rice.
closing up the segment.
so there's one. marking the next 6 inch mark.
two done. no mo rice. i debated running to the store for more, but decided just finishing was the best alternative.
i finished the edge with a little zig zag stitch.
please pardon my dirty microwave. i did not clean it for you. i like mine pretty toasty so i microwaved it for four minutes.
come to momma.
all tucked in! this should last about two full minutes :) at least i didn't have to think about dinner cause...
it was all done ;) looks kinda fancy.
