Through a Glass, Darkly

Let’s talk about some of the things I got for my birthday. I want to see if you notice a theme.

Mike gave me a pie pan, an apron, a pie cookbook, and other pie gadgets.

My mom gave me another baking stone, which I can always use, and which is especially useful for Christmas baking.

My aunt gave me a Singer sewing machine.

Wait. A. Second. I’m Susie Homemaker! Holy crap! When did this happen? I assume that after I master all of those, I will start canning all my own food and baking my own bread. Oh, and gardening. I’ll be growing all my own vegetables, obviously. After that, I’ll need a larger freezer to store all of the meals I prepare in advance. That is of course on top of all the pies I’m baking and the clothes I’m sewing.

Or maybe I could just finally learn how to knit. Yes, I like that plan much better.
