The Joy of a New Appliance
I forgot my own topic today: so here's a fill in:
I do love a new appliance. I gave away our immersion blender, to Al and I am wanting another. I picked these unripe cherry tomatoes before the cold cold weather set in yesterday. I'm doing that thing with newspaper and a box full of green tomatoes. I just couldn't see all those unripened cherry tomatoes going to waste. Fireman wanted to pickle them. I think that's just a stomach ache waiting to happen.
I'll keep you posted on their mysterious ripening process.
As for The Joy of Yarn in the Mail.....well, I get pretty excited over it. The whole box on the front porch thrill....the torture of the Packing Tape .....and finally seeing what I ordered. I have ordered from SimplySocks company. They are very helpful on the phone and the yarn comes lickety split. I have ordered from KnitPicks and have always liked the color of the yarn when it arrives. They are not as fast as Simply Socks. I've also ordered from Webs . No complaints there either.
Do you love the box of yarn arriving in the mail???? Who do you order from?

Use Simply Socks and Knitpicks the most. Like Patternworks for their Bretton yarn, a superwash sport weight sock type yarn with alpaca. Recently ordered from Webs and found their photos to not look much like the yarn I received. Love the way Knitpicks shows their colors big size and gives a good description of the actual color.
