DADS SEW: unicorn horn socks

DADS SEW: Ejler has been asking me to repair these unicorn socks for a while.  I finally figured out a way to do it.  1. scrap material (old chino pants) 2. trace and cut out circle with tab for attachment (add random green leaves from table) 3. cut slit in the circle and tightly twist into horn 4. sew up the seam, and from the top - sew around the horn making alternating stitches outside and inside the horn. 5. use the tab for attachment  

That time the birds built a nest in front of our kitchen window

One day while I was teleworking in the basement, Mallory excitedly screamed "I can't believe it!"    Some birds had made a nest and were raising chicks in the tree in front of our kitchen window.  We watched them grow over a few weeks until they were finally adventurous enough to hop out of the nest.   Here is one perched on a different tree close to the nest.
