New shawl

I have 700 yards left of the baby blue alpaca. This shawl idea came from ravelry. You pretty much make it up as you go, using decorative stitches separated by stockinette and finish off with a wide border of garter. Finally, a project I can knit on at knit night without losing my place.

RECIPE: Oat snack

1/2 C old fashioned oats
1 C water
1 T sugar free chocolate cook and serve pudding mix, dry
2 t creamy peanut butter, natural

Bring water to a boil, then add oats. Cook till almost done, add pudding mix and finish till thick. Add peanut butter. Divide into two portions. I like to put on wax paper to cool, then I store on small plastic containers. This makes two snacks which I eat cold.

If not sweet enough, you can sprinkle with an artificial sweetener of your choice.
