  1. lol.. it's so easy to happen...you always have leftover yarn but it's hard to use it ... i am gonna scrounge though and see what i can come up with for that blanket before dusting off Michael's credit card!
  2. i'm trying to figure out if i can make it without buying more yarn...Michael doesn't care if i buy more, but i have so much of it here...lol i will have to do some rooting through the stash and seeing what i have. lol
  3. i'm happy with 2, 4 or 5. It did take me a while to get the dpns under control, though.
  4. Thanks, Gary. I got two balls of that colour in a mystery sock yarn bundle, but i like the colours now that i've started it and the short colour changes. I'll take another pic in a few days.
  5. Socks i began today... we'll see how long it take me to make them. I'm not speedy.
  6. Oh that's great.. There's a huge sticker over the bottom.. but i peeled off enough to see the word, Ceramica, so i'd say it's Italian. Ours was a gift too and likely bought around here somewhere. I love it.
  7. I know it's Friday. You cannot trick me. I was up at 6am working on the knitting exercise books Michael gave me for Christmas. Then i was digging through yarn to find some of my sock yarn and started a new pair this morning. Other works in progress are a shawl, a mitre square blanket, and a mini granny square cardigan type thing. Finished up to chapter 5 on my new story. Just the last one to fix up. I've taken a couple of days off editing, but it will get done soon. I got tired of covering up our nice wooden table (seats 12 when fully open) so i made this for it little runner/big doily thingy. I haven't blocked it yet, maybe i will, to help it lay flatter. Have a super day, folks!!
  8. These people always make me wonder...why call and say that, just cancel Good grief. Have a good day with the ponies. 🏇
  9. It seems a few of us are deluded in their thinking.
  10. Oh yes, i knew exactly what i was writing. LOL.
  11. Post your fav recipes here. No food fights.
  12. Make sure you press them down really well. I use wet hands and then a glass or something. I bake them in a dark pan for 25 minutes, not the full 30.
  13. Okay.. Editing done for today... Baking done.. i made these the other day, changed somewhat for me and Michael.. no dark chocolate. Milk chocolate and white chocolate and pecans and Splenda brown sugar.. But they are super easy and super yummy. https://thewholecook.com/healthy-chocolate-chip-oat-bars/#wprm-recipe-container-34031 Dinner will be butter chicken, with some lentils and rice. I hope you all are having a super-duper day.
  14. I am distilling my story. Chopping out swathes is hard, but necessary. Have a nice (but cold) Sunday.
  15. Happy Saturday and International Zebra Day! They are just beautiful. Enjoy this pair! Have a fantastic day. I'm going to do some more butchering of my story. What fun!
  16. Nope, i just thought they looked good. But if the popsicle fits...
  17. You need an electric suit until the car is fixed. This is from Wally World at CAD $50.00 And from Amazon:
  18. It took me a few minutes to figure out it is Friday, this morning. Several clues i had were wrong, so it is not yet Saturday. As well, our furnace decided not work overnight, it was rather chilly this morning, and we still have extreme cold alerts today and tonight. The furnace guy showed this morning. Yay. Have a fantastic day, and please try to avoid becoming a popsicle.
  19. Happy Freezing Thursday ... we got an official cold weather/frostbite alert today! Keep warm out there. Today is Do you like puzzles? Jigsaw, crosswords, cryptograms, Sudoku or others? I like all these myself and do them often, less so jigsaws cuz of the space needed for them. But i like them. So, since it's so cold .. Wrap up and do a puzzle of some sort!
  20. Happy Wednesday! It's also Pop Art Day. I cannot draw for beans, so, any artists out there?
  21. Good luck? Is that the right thing to say?
  22. Yes, it is early (6am) .. i've been going to bed at 10pm and actually sleeping. It feels good. I hope all of you have a super Tuesday. Enjoy a bit of Mozart today, it's his birthday!
