Boys will be boys

"I'm no Easter turkey, I'm the Easter bunny!"

The canteen staff at my son's school are so terribly fed up with 8-14 year old boys giggling uncontrollably every time someone asks for chicken breast.

That they have actually changed the menu board!

Now it reads "Chicken belly"!

Personally, I'd rather have turkey!

My tea cosy is a winner!

Well, I gave my mother a novelty tea cosy that I'd knitted for her birthday. Yes it's a cooked turkey with holes for the handle and spout of the tea pot and totally cosy in acrylic yarn and washable too. But can you guess what she did with it?

She sewed the holes up and wore it as a Novelty Christmas Hat to her community center christmas party!

Worse than that! She actually won a bottle of whiskey for "silliest hat of the evening"!

What a cheek!

I've never won anything for my knitting!

Make something absolutely crazy!

Ok so my Mum's birthday is coming up.

So I decided to make her a novelty tea cosy to go on them
Thinking of Christmas dinner coming up made me think of a cooked turkey!
So yes, I made a fully functional tea cosy
added wings and legs
and well, you can see the rest.
