and the WInner is....Catherine

 Al and Babka would like to announce the winner of the Blog contest: Catherine in Ireland.  Check out her blog and her blog mention.  Since there are no DQ's in Ireland, the gift card is going to the Katherine with a K who reads Irisheyes.  Katherine of ComfortZone, Katherine from Texas where it's  hot hot hot!

Isn't Babka cute?  She has sort of sleepy eyes most of the time.  She is a patient little one.  Puddy stands IN The food dish and growls until she backs off.  Babka just waits... patiently.  Puddy is finally finally well.  He is not as big as Babka.  They have a couple more weeks here to grow and get strong then, they will go to the shelter and some one some very lucky one will take the pair home.....
Here's 22 inches of ribbing.  Hmmm, still undecided .....keyhole scarf? or Cowl???
I love love love this color.

Someone I love is moving to Virginia Beach soon.  Have you been there?  Do you know the area? Can you tell me nice things about it?

Wahaaayyy! I won the prize! I'm really thrilled and thanks so much - I'll email my address to you and sooo look forward to your gift! It's my lucky week with Americans as I've had two houseguests from the USA in the past week - both from Virginia. One a friend of my son he met when he studied in US for a semester, the other a stray backpacker we met at our travel writing festival at weekend. Thanks again! Catherine xxx

Love VA Beach. It's a little over 2 hours away, and right around the corner from my BIL.

I used to live there. The bad thing is the humidity. The good is the BBQ.

Don't you love scarf patterns that look the same on both sides? So glad those sweet kitties made it, thanks to your great care. You're right, someone will be lucky to have both.

Thank you so much!! Oh gosh is it hot here! The Mini Blizzards sound really good.

Babka is precious. How can you let them go back to the shelter? Don't you NEED to keep them?

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I have been knitting, but not making things.  6. MY gardens are growing.  I have 3 main areas I

  These are the one square bunnies .  They are a free pattern on Rave1ry.  I'm bunny making to force spring to come.  I'm a1so taking it easy on my hands again.  The med we tried did keep my hands from shaking, but it was a med for a med. and that's crazy town.  I can contro1 a hook much better than need1es.  It wi11 have to suffice for now.  I'm enjoying your b1ogs and your Spring.  This time of year I so want to 1ive in a southern state.  But this Spring is a new one for me and I'm going to find a way to 1ove it.   IT may have just gotten to 50.   Degrees.  I have to run.  There's very ear1y yardwork to do.   The birds have 1eft a rotten mess of sunf1ower she11s under the feeders.  I hope it is not frozen!  Have you been switching things up in your neck of the woods?   I haven't forgotten you, b1og pa1s.  I 1ove seeing you on Instagram .

Do You Smile When You Knit???

I am pretty sure I smile when I knit.  I'm going to think about that today when I pick up the baby blanket in progress.  I am also pretty sure I cry when I knit; well, not really.  I have shed some tears over the years but they were way back.  I surely scowl when I drop a stitch.   A time lapse of knitters' faces would be interesting enough .... Tank, aka Helo, is starting to smile around here.  Just look into those aqua eyes......they make me smile all the time. He is half Siamese and all gorgeous.
