feast for the beast

I realize I’ve already posted once today..but I made an awesome meal!  And besides, I didn’t want to dilute my sweater post.  :o)

I just love Sunday evenings.  I mean, sure I have to go to work in the morning, but I usually make a tasty dish.  Blue Moon’s seasonal Honey Moon is awesome, by the [...]

I finished my cardigan yesterday! For obvious reasons, I am ridiculously excited.

It took me 9 skeins of Lamb’s Pride Bulky, but it was so worth it. (In order to obtain the gauge, I held three strands together at once.) The bulk made it a quick project, too! I can’t wait to [...]

I blocked my beast of a cardigan tonight.  It was intense and a little terrifying.  NINE SKEINS!

I made a disaster of my kitchen, my living room, and myself.  Soaked.

I’m looking forward to seaming the cardigan up on Saturday!

So, of course I decide I want to post as soon as it’s bedtime.  Go figure.  I just couldn’t resist showing off a bit, though.

Look at that awesome close-up definition!  My new camera (a birthday gift from my parents) came in the mail today, and I couldn’t be more excited about it.  These are some [...]

go fish

After a long, hard day of knitting (yeah, it was rough sitting on my ass all day), I decided to treat myself to a fancy dinner!  Mood lighting makes for awful pictures, doesn’t it?

Well..it was kind of fancy, anyways.  It tasted damn fancy.  I ate an entire fish tonight!  (It was trout, by the way.  [...]

the beast is back

Dave left this morning (EARLY..I came home and went back to bed for several hours), so that’s sad. But now I have all kinds of time for knitting, and that’s happy! Hooray optimism. :o) My day was pretty great, in any case.
After a really productive morning (think cleaning, oil change, groceries, [...]

Er..

Just popping in real quick to say I haven’t disappeared for good! Dave is here visiting, and we’ve been spending as much time together as possible before he has to go home. ..meaning no knitting and no blogging. There is more than a good chance I’ll be doing scads of knitting/posting/whatever this [...]

we’re on top

I did indeed finish my hat this weekend.  It’s pretty glorious; have a look!

It might not be the best lighting an whatnot, but it’s the best view of the whole hat I have.  It was my first cabled project, and I would say it turned out pretty well.  I don’t think cables are my favorite [...]

life is walking by

So..Ohio?  There are TORNADOES here!  WTF?   It’s not something I’ve ever had to deal with, so it’s really scary.  I live in an apartment on the second floor, so I don’t really know where I’m supposed to go if there’s a warning.  I had one last night,  but it didn’t hit my area, so that [...]

banana brain

Today was a busy day! This afternoon I made some really yummy banana bread! The recipe is here on Food Network. I actually used buttermilk instead of milk out of necessity. (What kind of a freak has buttermilk but not milk in the fridge, anyways?) I was planning on adding [...]
