I love Egg Harbor! I always go there when in Chicagoland! Merry Chritmas, enjoy the big snow flakes. We have puring nasty rain here in Atlanta land.
Beautiful yarn, makes me want to run to our LYS, but it is 45 minutes away.

What a beautiful shade of green! I love it, and would call it "Evergreens". Parochial school means deep navy to me.

Lucky friend! It's lovely and I don't usually like green. Although parochial school is green, this is much too nice.

Enjoy your relaxation.

Patt,

I love the pumpkin walnut pancakes on the fall menu!

I am so embarrassed about my spelling! I guess I can't type and was so excited to comment! I have never tried the pumpkin walnut, sounds good. I forget what I had last time I was there, I know I enjoyed it.
I had a green and blue plaid Catholic school uniform, then in 4th grade they changed to brown plaid, but it had large pleats so it was easier to iron every night. The green/blue plaid had little pleats all over and my sister and I pinned them each down and ironed them every night.

 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...
