Crochet Me Crazy

I was looking for a natural recipe to make my own mosquito repellent. The mosquitos are about carry us away here and I hate using OFF! Anyway, I tried this recipe of mixing equal parts PURE vanilla and water together. I put it in a spray bottle and it seems to work great! You aren't sticky like you would think and its smells very strong, obviously, like vanilla. I don't know why this works but it does. I don't particularly like the strong smell. My husband loves it and he likes the smell. It's a bit much for me but its better than smelling like OFF to me so I'll keep using this until I come up with something better. I've read about some other recipes using essential oils but I have to get ingredients before I can try them.

On the crochet front, I finally got around to taking pictures of some hat/scarf sets that I made awhile back when I was on that spree.
