 The Easter Bunny always comes to our house. 
There will be one basket for all to share this Easter.
The Bunny told me so -
I think there's new cat toy in the basket as well. 

 After discussing TOMs with my fashion sense daughter and Channon, I went to Whole Foods and bought some.
That's correct: Shoes at Whole Foods. 
They aren't cheap either but it is liking buying two pair because they donate a pair to a person in need with each purchase. You get this neat TOMS bag, also,  that we all know is really a knitting bag, in disguise. 
 Zach took the portrait of Al getting ready for the wedding last week. I love his sense of light and definition.
I want Ashleigh B's glasses. 
I think I want her hair too. 

As for knitting-
*I Have to think back a few rows. 
The good part is that I'm on sections right now and only have to pull out a few rows of one section. 
Don't ask…I don't know how I fudged something this easy

*I'm ready to knit something different. 
I decided against the knit bunny, because the only bunnies I really love are chocolate ones and angora ones.

*Am I the only one for whom universal symbols are impossible for me to decipher? 
They make no sense to me. 

*Keep those strands of yarn coming…
contest deadline 4/30.
I'm going to add a 3rd prize of 
coffee from Chicago for another winner. 

Sure makes my mail  more fun.

So THAT'S what those Tom's bags are for! I didn't know about the donation part. That is pretty cool.

Haha, knitting bag in disguise. Zach's photo of Al is really beautiful! It doesn't hurt that Al is really beautiful, hehe.

I have a pair of Tom's, and I love them; however, they offer very little arch support.

My favorite Easter candy - Reese's PBtr eggs, malted milk eggs, and black jelly beans but not at the same time.

My daughter had a pair of khaki TOMs like that --- she wore them forever! And she bought, partially, because of the charity aspect, too,

I may have to buy a pair of Toms just to get the tote bag. LOL

I love AB's glasses too, but I don't think they would be right for me. I tried a few pair similar and it's just too much.

That is an awfully cute bunny!! The Labradors received 10kg of rice from Easter Bunny, and maybe some other treats on Easter Sunday. Happy Easter!!

Al is gorgeous in any light!

I haven't had time for a haircut in weeks so I think I actually do have Ashleigh B's hair--only messier.

I don't know about universal symbols, but I never read signs (like "Use other door"). I mean NEVER.

WOW I said that wrong! I love Ashleigh B's hair. I mean it is tons longer than mine usually is but right now I have that spikey thing going only with messy spikes!

I stalk my Whole Foods clothing/shoe aisle all the time and sometimes I even buy food there! One of my favorites is Threads for Thought. Chocolate bunnies rule!

I'm pretty sure our WF doesn't have shoes. I wouldn't have missed them... now I have to go look!

Al is a stunner, but that is a fab photo.

I need new glasses to go with the new hair and probably "progressive" lenses. Fly out and help, will you?! ;) I hate picking out new frames. Maybe Al will come help me!?

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...
