10 bucks a day??? A DAY!!! I was prepared. I brought my computer, my cables, my camera. But internet access at our hotel was 10 bucks a day. Sorry, I don’t think I’ll be blogging for that price. No, thank you.Well, anyway, I did a good bit […]

I swear I took this yesterday, but it was 8:45. I was in a scramble yesterday. The house was a mess, I was packing for our trip up to Denver (we’re leaving tomorrow before sunrise!) and the realtor calls and says that he’s showing the house…in half an hour!!! I hadn’t even […]

So my friend just recently learned to crochet , and now she wants to learn to knit. What does that mean to her? A Stitch and Tea Party! Oddly enough, I’m going to be teaching a bit of both - crochet tips and tricks, and knitting. How is it that I […]

Don’t get me wrong - I’m so not a yarn snob. I’m totally fine using man-made fiber. Readily available, easily cleanable, and cheap. There’s even some pretty neat and soft ones out there. However, this?This would be the evil Red Heart my husband chose for his Linux Illusion Scarf. […]

Today’s bento:

I’m quite proud of this one. Had more time to put things together. I made some onigiri, stuffed with teriyaki tuna (gotta make something MathMan will actually eat…) I made a little egg chick, and cut his string cheese into octopi. not exceedingly traditional, but I’m proud, like I said.I […]

That’s it. Tubey is dead. Over. Finis. At least in this incarnation. I’ve knit and frogged and knit and frogged more times than I care to remember. I’m just not liking the yarn I’ve chosen. Maybe it’s because I got some of the cheapest stuff I could find. […]

So, I’m finally home. I actually took a picture of the sky yesterday (make that two) but I didn’t get the chance to post. I can finally post my pictures! First, the Saturday Sky from a week ago:And then pics of FOs, the two dishcloths. I can see why people like […]
