Pizza, Profiteroles and Evil Cats
If you're going through hell, keep going. ~ Winston Churchill It's been awhile dear followers. Sometimes life throws you a curve ball, kicks you when your down, spits on you and then lights you on fire. (I think you get the idea.) The British Hubby and I needed sometime to evaluate life, regroup and get…Read more Pizza, Profiteroles and Evil Cats
Reading Challenge: Book 5 The Original Matrix
"Of course, it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?" ~ J.K. Rowling Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Remember my reading challenge? My goal is to read 20 books this year. I'm a smidge behind, but with good reason. It probably won't surprise…Read more Reading Challenge: Book 5 The Original Matrix
Sprouting up Buttercups
Success is to wake up each morning and consciously decide that today will be the best day of your life. ~ Ken Poirot Last year, I joined Stitch Sprouts. I worked through several projects that were meant to build my knitting skills. Okay, the class was pretty easy, but I met some new knitting friends.…Read more Sprouting up Buttercups
In the Beginning
Spontaneity is the best kind of adventure. Today's quote sums up my knitting philosophy to a tee. I admire crafters that only have a few projects on the go and see them to completion before casting on the next project. Knitting is my happy place. If casting on a new project makes me happy, that's…Read more In the Beginning

We went to a performance of Haydn's Creation with the Seattle symphony. You've probably heard parts of this master piece. This is the first…Read more Hot Cross Buns & Urban Hiking
Malabrigo March Progress
The greater danger for most of us isn't that our aim is too high and we'll miss it, but that it is too low and we won't reach it. ~ Michelangelo It's the start of another work week. I meant to post over the weekend, dear followers, but it was so amazing outside that I…Read more Malabrigo March Progress
Reading Challenge: Book 4
It's better to be hated for what you are than loved for what you are not. ~ Autumn Leaves by Andre Gide Oh my dear followers, with the snowapocalypse, Malabrigo March and then the stomach bug I completely missed a book I finished in early March. It was overdue at the library so I had…Read more Reading Challenge: Book 4
Wip Annihilation April
There are only two options: make progress or make excuses. Monday again. That means it's my weekly Malabrigo March check in. There shouldn't be any new projects to report and there certainly aren't any new Malabrigo March projects. (I know, I know. I'm never going to finish my wips if I keep casting on.) It's…Read more Wip Annihilation April
