I doubt Caroline Ingalls would approve

Neither would Aislinn: "Spent two hours embroidering a cloth for the church and three hours picking out my stitches after my mother saw it."

In my case, half an hour reattaching a zipper to a pair of pants, but chores always go faster when I can put them in context.

I still haven't figured out the right kidlit reference for washing dishes or cleaning the bathroom, though - any suggestions?

Hmmm...No idea, but I seem to be doing a lot of dishes lately :)

Groundhog Day?
Not Kidlit, I know, but I couldn't resist.

Never actually seen it, I have to admit. (Yes, talking like Yoda, I am. Know why, I do not.)

I think I have the start of a new project here...

Ha. Groundhog Day is perfect! And Sarah, you know how to reattach a zipper to a pair of pants? I'm very impressed!

Well, we'll see how well I did the next time I wear those pants...
