New Discoveries

By -
 We have been blessed with a gorgeous little snow. 
Winter wonderland oh yeah! 
Gone are the dreary dark days.
Our festivities were so joyful.  I am in a very good tired place. 
I'm always late to the party but just in case
you missed these products too, I have some great news.

I absolutely love the fake candles.  Santa brought me this one pictured above.  I don't have to write notes to myself about how many are lit.  I don't have to worry about the house burning down from a candle!  Genious I say, these are genious.

Did you know, dear knit pals, that Carmex makes a hand lotion. Oh yes they do and it is wonderful.   It is soothing and healing to my dry winter nurse skin.  Bring on the silky yarn...!!

And finally, perhaps best of all:
Santa brought me Cuddl Duds. 
Oh my gosh.
Do you own this fantastic long underwear? 
WE'll call it that, but it is so much more beautiful than your run of the mill long underwear.   
I think I am going to have to buy more of this. 
Santa brought me a long sleeve v-neck in charcoal.

OH CHAN!  Shout out to you.....have you discovered Cuddl Duds?
My sister - in - law mentioned them a few years ago and just now I am experiencing the joy. 

Any discoveries in your neck of the knit woods?

Oooo I have to try the Carmex hand lotion. My hands are extra dry this winter!! As for new discoveries, everyone knows I have fallen in love with Revlon's Lip Butter and now have a new set of lips! Lol! I also discovered that those super absorbent towels for drying hair are great for dogs that have been out in the snow. Now I have to get another one to wrap around my wet hair!!

What a beautiful candle.

I haven't seen the Carmex. Will have to look for it. I use their lip balm and it's great!

Carmex lotion? Must find some.

I have one pair of Cuddl Duds pants. They're my favorite "long johns". I think I might need a shirt now. Do they make socks?

Oh yeah, Cuddl Duds are great!

No new discoveries other than I am in love with Bob's Soft Peppermints: they simply melt in my mouth and taste heavenly.

My mother received some long underwear from santa too, although I don't think they were that brand, I think they were LL Bean. I'm glad that you are going to be all comfy and happy for the remainder of the winter, you should be a happy knitter!

I think I am running out and getting some lotion, even Florida dries out your hands in the winter.
Glad you are having fun in your winter wonderland.

I need some flameless candles for the deck. I'm discovering the joys of sitting the hot tub relaxing after sweating with the Wii.

I'm discovery the joys of simple, simple knits. I'm re-discovering the joys of hanging with friends.

Need to find carmex lotion. :) g

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 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...
