Love of Knitting
- I like the magazine Love of Knitting. This cinched cowl is really sharp. Love the colorway of the yarn.
- Someone donated their sweet pea plants to others at the animal shelter this week. I took one. It should like the cooler weather.
- Ignore the numerals, they aren't right . We are on number 3, but I'm not savvy enough to fix this.
- Speaking of likes, Fireman likes Google. He goes a bit bonkers when I use BING. I agree google is a much better search engine but Bing will do in a pinch and I think it is our MSN homepage default.
- At Walgreen's today someone saw me buying marshmallows. We chattted. She told me her mom makes her rice krispie treats with sweetened condensed milk, not marshmallows. What? I GOOGLED it and it is true. Who knew? YOU?
- Miss Pie has a way of getting through the upstairs hall door some mornings and jumping on our bed. She is SOOOO happy when she succeeds and I'd let her stay but she rubs and rubs us and we cannot get back to sleep. She is so funny and proud of herself. None of the other cats have mastered the door!
- I wanted to show an image of Pie, but it won't load. So you get Fezzik...again. He's so darn photogenic. Shhhh we've set the neuter date...
- I'm going to knit my sale cascade 220 tweed hat today. I cast on yesterday. It will be a quick knit.
- Go Cubs. I'm ashamed of Patrick Kane even if the allegations are false. The Blackhawks are a class act and he's failed them again.
- New episodes of the INCredible Doc Pol have begun. I'm a happy Saturday night at home girl .
- Had dinner with two nurse friends last night. One loved ALL THE LIGHT YOU CANNOT SEE and one did not. I'm not reading anything right now. Too much Sports on tv. Local PGA golf tournament this weekend, Cubs, Northwestern Football, Da Bears.... That's the wrap up here. What's up by you?

Didn't know that about the Krispies but it makes sense. That stuff is like glue and will hold anything together. I love it in Hello Dollies where it holds chocolate, coconut and a bunch of other yummy stuff together. Mmmmmm.....
I loved "All The Light We Cannot See." Briton is reading it right now, and also enjoying it.
I am currently reading All the Light We Cannot See. I am loving it.
I am full of questions too ----- What did Patrick Kane allegedly do? How old is Fezzik? Aren't cats usually neutered younger than him? (We were lucky --- Giroux was already fixed when we got him. I know I would be worried if I had to go through that with him. We sure do love our pets and hate to see them uncomfortable even when we KNOW, it is very important.)
Have a great weekend.
I am rereading Gone With The Wind at the moment.

I haven't read All the Light We Cannot See yet, but it's on my TBR list. I know some who loved it, some who thought it was extremely dull, so I guess I'll try to decide for myself. :-)
Today is the Eagles vs. Cowboys game. I am not obsessed with pro football, though I do like it in general, but if it's a game against the Cowboys, I'm all for the other team winning! ;-)
As for neutering, some vets and breeders feel you should wait until Males are older to nueter to let their urethral tubes get big enough that they can pass a stone later in life, also breeders want their cats to grow to their intended size and their growth plates dont close until 8 months of age. In general though, shelter pets are altered at 8 to 12 weeks of age to assure they are non reproductive. Since breeders make you sign a contract that you will alter at 8 months, and not breed, they have the same effect. Ok? :)
He'll be fine. I know the neuter team well!
Did you see the Bronco's and Chief's game Thursday night. Oh my goodness...I'm a Bronco fan...and couldn't believe the last few minutes of the game. Tough to be a Chief's fan in those moments.
I'm one of those people who didn't like Al The Light....
I'm trying to avoid all things sweet so I'm not going to Google Rice Krispy Treats with SCM. It sounds far too tempting!
