I finished off the Baby Tart / Berry Tart hat before we left for PA. I made the smallest size and am glad that I did because those bobbles were driving me nuts once I figured them out. It's not a tall tart, but it's cute. Hopefully when it's on my sweetie pie it will… Continue reading Round the House

Vacation-land (photo-heavy)
In the end, I decided to bring along the current pair of socks and the "Hope&Donald" scarf and knit very little on each. Oh well. It was still a fun trip!

We're having a baby!) we went out to a great restaurant - Cafe Goodfellas - so delicious! Scarface was playing… Continue reading Now it’s quiet

29 and doing fine
Having a birthday is a pretty good way to start off a vacation (or retirement, however you want to look at it). Yesterday I turned 29, which I'm still trying to wrap my brain around - I don't feel 29, I don't look 29 (so I hear), but I'm okay with being 29 so I… Continue reading 29 and doing fine

Oh wait - that's what they did all year, why should they bother to show a bit of respect today? Ugh. But it's done! And I'm done!! And… Continue reading School’s Out Forever!
