 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

Yay to the winners!

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?

 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...
