With gas hanging at right around $4.00/gallon I have started to see fewer huge SUV’s on the road, and a large increase in all kinds of different transportation this summer. In addition to smaller cars (including the very cute MINI cooper and Smart cars) there have been a larger # of people on bicycles, motorcycles, and scooters.
But I [...]

Another Vintage Velvet?

What is this? I realize that I need more yarn (or another scarf) like I need a hole in my head. But between the mowing, knitting, and general laziness this weekend I went and checked out a yarn shop that I have been meaning to find for quite a while. I “needed” longer size 7 circular [...]

It’s been a busy week. I finished it last night by going to Mystic Lake with A to see…..
Hmmmm. Who is he?
Yep, we went and saw Rick Springfield. It was a fun show. I realized I was evidently not a big fan in the 80’s because the beginning of the show was a bit slow [...]
Saturday Soccer

Yes, I am a few days behind. I have had company for the past couple of days. We had a blast, but I am whipped. The weather here in the great white north has been beautiful!
On Saturday I took a break from my company preparations (read massive cleaning so they have somewhere to sleep) to [...]

How flipping cool is that!
I still need to transplant some so that they have more room….obviously 4 plants in a pot is not going to work.
But I have produce!!!
I have also been knitting away and Cinxia is coming [...]

I can honestly say I don’t play on Flickr very much. I’m in there enough to be able to pull my pictures out, and that is about it. But today, in more than one of the blogs that I peruse (i.e. here and here), I found a fun little game.
1. Type your answer to each of [...]

I own a sewing machine, and in fact, can sew. It’s just not something that I enjoy. Now shopping for fabric is a different story. LOVE it! My mom sewed 90% of my clothes growing up (didn’t like it so much then), and we spent a lot of time shopping at real stores and then [...]
Who knew…

Last Sunday 2 of my girlfriends wanted to go see Sex in the City. I think I’ve already established that I love movies. So even though I had never seen a full episode of the show while on tv (no, I don’t have HBO, and have also seemed to miss it on reruns), I was [...]
Knitting Mystery

I have been knitting, but it is getting nice out (though it is still chilly here for June), and I am not getting as much needle time as usual. So to keep me in the mood, I am READING about knitting!
No, not even anything useful, like a pattern book. Just a light knitting mystery. This [...]
