Each year, on the first weekend of May, the pirates invade. Or so they say. So we caravanned up to Fernandina - my family and our friends down the street - and went to the Shrimp Festival. We saw a couple of pirates. We smelled a lot of shrimp. But we missed the "invasion" and ...
So I took a copy of my Misty Hat pdf to Cub Scouts tonight. I was planning to mark it up and figure out some sort of style sheet for future patterns. I'm a math person so when I see numbers I auto-calculate. And I did this with one round of decreases. The answer was wrong. Not ...
Ok, not my first one. But my first one that actually looks like something pretty. I took a decent pic of the summer tweed the other day, but that was in perfect mid-morning sun through the blinds conditions. This one was just hanging out in my very own kitchen. Today my boys were not ...
Some people I know find mannequin heads creepy. I thought it was a necessary investment for my business. Especially because I seem to have a way with hats. The hat on the left is the surrey prototype. I've done some frogging on it this morning ...

I need to buy a picnic basket. And take some pictures. I have all the ingredients to make a light box to take pictures but none of the oomph. Of course it doesn’t help that it is 2.5 weeks until the end of the semester and I am woe-fully behind on all my schoolwork. And ...
I know, I've been a horrible blogger. But I have discovered the secret to finishing projects. Wait for it... You pick one project. You work on only that project until it's done. It's a sucky secret I know, but it's working for me.
It was a good idea. I have four sweaters that are like 75% done. So I finish one each week in January. I was in the homestretch on the Sandy Cardigan. All I need was half the edging and half a sleeve.
Why is that important things fall out my brain but totally inane things remain forever? If you must know my current earworm is Elmo singing about five. And the sand? Dude. I was doing laundry yesterday and I cleaned like half a cup of sand out of my washer. Yes, I live in Florida, ...
