The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. So says Oscar Wilde anyway. I have *not* finished either the farm mat or the Wing Top, though I have made progress on both. Considering the Bee Fields Shawl was buzzing at me from behind a closed door, I think it’s [...]

Thanks for all the compliments on Morning Glory. In all fairness, the design and the yarn had more to do with it than I did, but I am grateful for your kind words and appreciation. I was having a discussion with Elizabeth from Trailing Yarn about SAFF. I had mentioned that I was planning out [...]

I don’t know why La and I have been on the same finishing schedule lately. Seems like we go weeks without anything to show, then we both finish a batch of stuff at once. It’s not even like we’re knitting the same things. Here’s what I’ve finished: Stats: Pattern: Morning Glory Shawl, pattern by Anne [...]

Number one thing I don’t give a rat’s ass about today [or any other day]? Harry Effing Potter. How long before I can turn on my radio or computer or go out in public without hearing about it? Can we agree on a day and time for that to happen? I’ll set my alarm. [please [...]

I’m having a shitty week. You know, the kind of week where you just desperately need to turn back the clock a tiny little bit. Only watching Deadwood and hearing the word “cocksucker” about forty times will put me in a better mood right now. I know the whole world jizzes for that show, but [...]

Stitch n Pitch was fun. We had an overcast day, which was a good thing. It was still warm and moist and we got a few drops of rain, but it didn’t matter because we were under a roof anyway. Not twenty minutes after the bus got us back to the yarn store, the skies [...]

I was chatting with Melissa this morning. We’re both Foodie Wannabes. She’s one of the few locals who likes many of the same things I like. I told her I was excited that the week I’m in Boston happens to coincide with Boston Restaurant Week. We then pondered a knitting and eating tour when Atlanta [...]

I don’t know if I can do it, write a post all about stuff I love. Leave out the caveats? Not go off on a rant? I’ll try it this once. 1. Patty and Jennifer, who emailed me out of the blue just to tell me they enjoyed my posts and seeing pictures of the [...]

Yesterday I joined my buddies at Knitch. Claudia and I had breakfast at the pub across the street first; sitting on the patio in the light drizzle and talking was lovely, slow waitress service notwithstanding. I know I’ve raved about this shop before, as does everyone who visits it, but I don’t think I’ve shown [...]

Several pictures should be equivalent to all the posts I didn’t write this week, right? Wait! Don’t go; after seeing the last post I wrote Jared came home bearing a [very] early birthday gift. Now I can take my blurry pictures at 8.1 mega pixels, baybee! Here’s Blossom at five months: Because who doesn’t like [...]
