I am usually a bit annoyed by my husband's creative process while cooking, but maybe I can look at it this way and make it a positive thing and help him tidy up - and love him more for it! :) Wonderful!

I can relate to so many of your posts. I heat with wood, and I do have a wood cooking stove. However, it's not in working condition, but only paid $200.00 for it. I make herbal soaps from wild plants that I gather on our farm. Make baskets from willow, grapevine, & commercial reed. I also love to teach others about the old timey ways of living.

I found it while looking for different ways to freeze the abundance of apples we have this year, for use in baking pies later on this winter. Your idea of freezing them right in the foil, formed by the pie plate was a terrific idea. Then I started reading some of your other blog posts and was hooked! Now it's been about an hour and I HAVE to get back to weaving my own antler baskets and finishing up on a customer's cane chair. Loved your blog about the grapevine baskets, too.

I make baskets, too, and weave chair seats. I just finished repairing two chairs and the mess is still all over my keeping room, which is also the "living" room. I've picked up the coils, but everything else is still littering the floor. BTW, your basket is beautiful. I'm not yet up to your level. What a coincidence!

I made this basket because I needed something really big to keep my current knitting project in (a quilt-sized cable afghan). Yes, he’s a keeper all right!
