Knitting Update

For a knitting-related blog, I haven’t been posting many photos of my knitting, have I?
Well, in my defense, most of the things I’ve been knitting lately are gifts for folks, so I’ve had to keep them on the DL.
But now…photos.
First, a baby set for our fried R, who just had a baby in late November. [...]

Then, on Tuesday we went to the Camden Adventure Aquarium.  I have been whining and whining and whining about wanting to go there, so M finally gave in.  It was nice.  I’m completely obsessed with those deep underwater creatures.  So our beloved friend, M, babysat our two dogs, and off we went for a day [...]

On Saturday, Theresa and I went to see Quarantine.  It actually wan’t bad, compared with the usual horror film fare of late.  A few jumps here and there, and it was nice to just hang out with the girls and watch a movie and share a bottle of wine afterwards.
Our fall break was Monday and [...]

The Lace Bug

I still love knitting socks.  I won’t deny it.  But lately, I’ve totally been bitten by the lace-knitting bug.  I LOVE it.  I love the delicate patterns that emerge chrysalis-like from my needles.  I love the sleek lace yarns.  I love the change — from bunchy lace post-needles to the post-blocked creation.  It’s just so [...]

So I was driving to work today behind a truck that was being used to advertise their business — some kind of tiling business.  On the back of their truck, in big, bold, white letters, is the company’s slogan, apparently.
“We’re Taken Over”
Now maybe it’s just me, but I laughed out loud, nearly spewing coffee from [...]

Checking up…

Yesterday was my second third weigh-in at Weight Watchers.  We had our annual “really big pic-a-nic” on Saturday, so I was a bit worried.  But I did my best to plan for it.  Instead of the pub burgers that everyone else was eating, I made up some yummy spiced turkey burgers that were pub-sized.  It [...]

We went to see The Dark Knight on Friday night, and it was incredible. We went to The Boyd Theatre in Bethlehem, this fantastic old theatre, independently owned, with the old-school balcony. I love that place. Dark? Yes. Very much so. But by far the best Batman film yet, [...]

I spent most of my years in grad school studying film, with a lot of performance studies and rhetorical studies thrown in for flava.  So it would only make sense that I would fall in love with a sock yarn club called “Sock Yarn Cinema.”  The fiber artiste has chosen a pop classic film and [...]

Ok, so it’s true.  I’m admitting it. So there.  You’ll still love me, right?
Every day, I get more and more intent on owning a little farm. 
In the Poconos. 
Growing some organic fruit trees and strawberry fields. 
Running a ceramics artists commune, holding classes and such. 
And owning lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots [...]
