Hello! This is the Blue Chicken Blog. If you think that's a pretty strange name for a blog, you might be right. I give all credit to my imaginative son Ben for this blog's name. When he was little, about 2-ish, close to 3, we had a run-in with a zoo peacock (they're just regular ol' peacocks who live at the zoo). We sat for a snack of Goldfish crackers and Ben dropped his under the picnic table. Peacocks are sneaky creatures, especially those who live at the zoo, and this one made a beeline for the abandoned goodies.
Ben was outraged. "Hey you blue chicken! Those are my crackers. Stop eating them!" Needless to say, said "blue chicken" didn't stop eating them, but that story always gives me a laugh, and from such a story this blog was born.
Welcome to The Blue Chicken Blog. I intend for this to mostly be about quilting and other sewing endeavors, but I promise to drop-in posts about knitting or crocheting, cooking and reading and sometimes gardening. Being that I'm passionate about so many things and the fact that I live in a red state, I might even sneak in a political post or two once in awhile, but I promise to be polite about it.
I hope you'll stick with me as I get this journal of my creativity and craftiness off the ground!
