Check-In Post - November 1st 2024

[badly_knitted]

Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


This Week's Question: No question this week.


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

Thanks!

You're getting there!

They are. I'm not sure why some people are so down on them. Most of it is gummy bears so... Yeah. It's probably not going to survive the end of the year. It used to be our normal weather that the big storms would start around Halloween (and you planned your costume accordingly), but it's been tame the last few years.

Veeeery slowly, lol!

Gummy bears are popular, or so I've heard.

Autumn weather is fickle.

XD

XD They are popular with me at least. Also because it was the Haribo trick or treat pack, there are also many packages of sour gummy bats. ;)

It is indeed that.

Oooh, sour gummy bats sound delicious!

[spiralicious]

They are amazing! The sour is incorporated into the flavor of the gummy, instead of being a powder on the outside of it. They taste like the fruit they are supposed to, except lip puckeringly sour. They also come in 2 sizes - the gummies in the tiny trick or treaters size packets are a little bit bigger then the eraser on a pencil, but in the 4oz packs, the bats are about 7.6 cm long and 2.5 cm tall, and the wings and body are 2 different flavors.

Sadly, Haribo only puts them out at Halloween.

Oooh, now my mouth is watering!

They are so good!
