Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. ~ Helen Keller It's March 4 and I have four new projects for Malabrigo March so far. My plan to only knit from stash has been tossed out the window. I have fallen head over heels in love with the new Malabrigo base Washted. Especially the new…Read more Malabrigo March: Cast on Frenzy
Intrigue, Conspiracy & World Domination
Godzilla: Guardian of the Earth
Godzilla's Mission: A future with no nuclear weapons. Where did this week go? With the snow storms and our island getaway, it's been several weeks since I went do the day job five days in a row. Wow, it's exhausting. My alarm clock had a tough job rousing me from my slumbers this week, but…Read more Godzilla: Guardian of the Earth
Conspiracy Thursday: Leap Year
Trust no one. It's February 28. The last day of the month except when it's a leap year. Sure, there's a perfectly good explanation about how leap years work. But do you really believe that? Personally, I think leap year days should always be a holiday. I don't get paid more for working an extra…Read more Conspiracy Thursday: Leap Year
Icicles & Craftvent Day 19
The fire of purpose easily melts the icicles of obstacles. ~ Alan Cohen Yesterday, a winter storm moved through the PNW. It dumped large amounts of snow and left us with below freezing temperatures. I woke up to 14 degrees Fahrenheit. That's -10 in Celsius. Sure, the Midwest was colder last week, but it's still…Read more Icicles & Craftvent Day 19
Conspiracy Thursday: Alligators are Living in the Sewer
You know you're old when someone compliments you on your alligator shoes, and you're barefoot. ~ Phyllis Diller Growing up in the rural Midwest, I completely believed there could be alligators living in the sewer systems. Why? I had never seen a sewer system. My family had well water. We didn't have city plumbing. While…Read more Conspiracy Thursday: Alligators are Living in the Sewer
Flying Solo
Baseball is like driving, it's the one who gets home safely that counts. ~ Tommy Lasorda It was a cold, clear and sunny day in the PNW. There were gorgeous views of the mountain. (That's mount Rainier.) I couldn't help but feeling a little down. The British Hubby left this morning for the sunshine state.…Read more Flying Solo
Conspiracy Thursday: Jonestown
Don't drink the kool-aid! Thursday means we explore a new conspiracy theory. Normally, I look forward to writing a conspiracy blog all week. It's a high point in my work week. That was until I came across this topic. The Jonestown Massacre was the next topic on the Conspiracy Theories podcast on parcast. For two…Read more Conspiracy Thursday: Jonestown
Conspiracy Thursday: Soulmates
Some socks are loners. They can't live in pairs. ~ Wendy Cope It's Thursday. That means it's time for a new conspiracy. The day job is keeping me pretty busy. I have been unsuccessful in my last few attempts to listen to my Conspiracy Theories podcast. Their voices are so soothing. It lulls me to…Read more Conspiracy Thursday: Soulmates
Conspiracy Thursday: The Unexplained Mystery of the Oregon Sri Yantra
People love conspiracy theories. ~ Neil Armstrong It's Thursday. That means a new conspiracy. The British Hubby stumbled upon this article while trolling the inter-webs. I don't know about you, but I had never heard of the word glyph before. Essentially, this is an extremely complicated crop circle, but instead of a field it's in…Read more Conspiracy Thursday: The Unexplained Mystery of the Oregon Sri Yantra
Craftvent Day 15
Peace is always beautiful. ~ Walt Whitman It's day five of 2019. I'm officially 11 days behind the end date for Craftvent 2018. My holiday vacation is over from the day job. Sad, I know. Even sadder, I'll have far less knitting/crafting time. Second set of strips complete! 2019 is the year of the tart.…Read more Craftvent Day 15
