Yummy



Kelli likes PEZ. And I have the perfect little guy to share it with, namely my little neighbor at home who is a PEZ fanatic. Plus, who can go wrong with some tea and sock yarn? Mountain Colors sock yarn, mmmmm. I've never tried it, but it is most definitely SQUISHY! (Socks should always be squishy.) Thanks Imbrium for holding a contest, I am most honored to win it. :)

I also suffered a small indignity today. Mind you, I was headed to the dermatologist to have a mole removed. I had planned on having a mole removed. Said mole was to be removed from one jaw line of said Knitter Bunny. This mole was not removed, in fact it was deemed fine by Dr. Lady Dermatologist. Sadly, this was not to be for a different mole in a somewhat more *erm* delicate spot somewhat south of the panty line. (No, not that far south! Get your mind out of the gutter. ) This resulted in a somewhat achy spot and I'm not feeling 100% tonight. As such, short post.

Hopefully, another episode of the sock hunter will air by Friday. If not, here's why: I'm going to see the Harlot, with Kristi and Pat and Erin and Kellie and oh my! Oh, and, I'm going to get my book signed, see? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, I have the new book!

Have You Heard?

Today is the Second Annual Brigid in Cyberspace Silent Poetry Reading. In honor of this, I am sharing one of my poems.

Untitled

and once when I was falling
falling from so high
and downward ever spiraling
through clouds of lullabies
a deep and endless dreaming
was there within my reach
but the moon was brightly beaming
to sweep those dreams beyond my reach
how I want that falling
to fall again so high
then downward ever spiraling
through clouds of lullabies


On an entirely different track, have you heard about the Cherry Tree Hill contest? I had no idea, until my friend (and fellow knitter) Mary Anne called me. I pooh-poohed the idea of designing something. And then, I had an idea. A very gripping idea. An insane idea that I'm not sure I can pull off, but I have until June 1. Shhh, please, I'm trying not to think about it.

To finish off this post, I finished a scarf. Did I even tell you about this little beauty? ONE skein of Malabrigo, I think the color might be Vaa??? I used all but about 10 inches of the 216 yards of this stuff. Knit on size 10 needles, in the pattern "big bamboo" from the Vogue Knitting Stitchionary: Volume 2. Oh, baby I love this scarf!
