<p>It &#8220;only&#8221; took four tries, including the ill-fated Dwarven Battle Yamulka, which Bailey stole for her stuffed animals.</p>
<p>So, one down and two more to go. Jesse also wants the Blond version and Ben wants one as well.</p>
<p>Next up will be some more subtle wrist warmers to wear at work. The striped ones get me odd looks sometimes and I don&#8217;t feel they are suitable to wear to meetings unless I happen to wear my purple sweater.</p>
<p>Jesse was having too much fun posing in it so it was hard to get a good photo.</p>
<p>UPDATED: Once it was blocked, Jesse decided he wanted the nasal bar on this one, so it has a tad bit further to go.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Homemade Noodles Recipe from the Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook <br />(1968 version)</p>
<p>Combine:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1 beaten egg,&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1/2 teaspoon salt,<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2 Tablespoons milk<br />Add:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1 CUP sifted all purpose flour or enough to make a stiff <br />dough.</p>
<p>Roll dough very thin on floured surface, let stand 2 minutes<br />Roll up loosely and slice 1/4 inch wide.&nbsp; Unroll; spread out and let dry <br />for 2 hours.</p>
<p>Drop into boiling soup or boiling, salted water and cook uncovered about <br />10 minutes.<br />Makes 3 cups cooked noodles.</p>
<p>I use this recipe to make Turkey and dumplings (noodles).&nbsp; I usually <br />double the recipe.&nbsp; I mix the dough and go ahead and roll it out.&nbsp; I cut <br />it into the noodles and go ahead and drop them into the Boiling salted <br />broth.&nbsp; They make a soft dumpling when cooking them this way.<br />*<br />Gluten Free Version:<br />*<br />I substituted whatever brand of Gluten Free Flour was on hand and had <br />good success. </p>
