Running
At the library I picked up a copy of How to be a Domestic Goddess by Nigella Lawson. If you love to bake, then you are going to LOVE this book. Oh my friggin' God! There is a recipe for a chocolate cake that...well, I'll show pix on Saturday when I make it! YummO! (Like Rachael Ray would say!) I also got a copy of Cute Crochet, "The Great Gatsby", (I saw it on cable the other night and felt like re-reading F. Scott Fitzgerald), and Knitting Under the Influence. Needless to say I have a little bit of reading material that will keep me busy. For a few days at least.
I should say that I don't expect to become a Domestic Goddess. More like a Domestic Princess. I can cook. I can bake. I'm only just trying to better those skills. However, I do not want to be the next June Cleaver. Just trying to clarify.
I also came across this at Scouts Swag. It's called Snowbunny.
So I bought a skein of the sport weight and hope to make some Dalton like socks soon. Run out and buy some!
I haven't done much in the actual knitting department, though I did start a swatch of the greens/browns/gray KPPM Koigu for a new pair of socks. I'll post pictures tomorrow.
