Last day of the Contest :)

By -


Al is making this cute sweater from SUBLIME Aran hand knit book #604. It is a gift due at the end of the month. It will be fun to see if she gets it done for the party. I'm betting she will.

Okay, you tunafish lovers. My goodness. I do not have that gene. When someone is eating tuna fish I turn up my nose and say EWWWWW. I almost choke at the smell of it. Now that I know how passionate you all are about this apparent delicacy, I'll try to tone it down.
As for fudge, it is all about summer here at our house. THe fudge shop in Minocqua is a tradition as we head to our cabin. I'm too busy eating all the Christmas cookies I can get to eat fudge in December.

Okay last questions for the contest. Please answer : WHAT IS......just like we are on Jeopardy. Biance you are forgiven as I doubt you know the gameshow.

the tuna thing: i agree on the smell, and at work the girls also agree, but they have become obsessed with my tuna blend i mix and i have gone to eat my lunch and found it completely gone before! They know it smells (well, like tuna) but love the taste!

 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 ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
