Christmas Presents & More

Christmas Eve, I found out that I had won a basket full of beauty products from the salon that I go to and I was able to pick it up that same day. But I was good and waited to open it on Christmas Day.
Christmas Day was a gray and rainy day here in [...]

Take a Day or Two Off

I am not ignoring the blog. I am just taking a day or two off to knit. Look for holiday photos tomorrow.

Shopping Done, Still Need to Wrap

Yesterday was productive. I managed to finish up all of my holiday shopping. I just need to wrap everything. Okay, it is all gift cards but that is what everyone wanted. And I found the the perfect add in to everyone’s gift bags – good organic chocolates!!!! It is hard to wrap gift cards so [...]

Bits and Pieces

Today, I am going shopping and finishing off my Christmas list. So here are some odds and ends to think about…..
One of my favorite authors is Barbara Delinsky and she has a new book due out in February of 2007. The title of the book is Family Tree and she has the first chapter up [...]

Favorite Songs

Does everyone have a favorite song to knit by? Or a favorite Christmas song? My favorite Christmas song is Snoopy’s Christmas (Snoopy vs The Red Baron) by the Royal Guardsmen. But the version in my iTunes play list is by the Clumsy Lovers. I also have Snoopy vs the Red Baron (60’s Mojo Mix) [...]

Sheri, over at The Loopy Ewe, has been posting recipes every so often so I will give her and everyone a recipe that I have been playing with lately. I thought I had lost the website where I had originally found this recipe but after searching for about a half hour, I finally found it. [...]

I signed up to take part in the Stranded Colorwork Challenge. And I have been really bad about not posting about it. I had at first decided that I was going to do the We Call Them Pirates hat using the pattern at Hello Yarns. But some one at the yarn shop knit it up [...]
