<br />
I will take pics of my fave food places and post!!!<br />
<br />
<br />
Brother is coming home for R&R (hopefully soon!!).<br />
<br />
Story about my car and how it got me fed LOL.<br />

Knitting<br />
<br />
My first finished object since I strated the Podcast!!!<br />
<br />
My Citron is washed, blocked & terminado!!!! (spanish word of the podcast "finished"). Pics to come soon.<br />
<br />
The Momma and Baby Monsters pattern by Rebecca Danger in The Big Book of Knitted Monsters<br />
<br />
So Far...<br />
<br />
Using odd balls of yarn. For the mommy body I used left over Yarn Absolute Wool in pink that I used in my nieces Escuelita Sweater. I have now started the CC color for the pockets, arms and legs in a deep wine color and I think its Caron Simply Soft. Finished the body, pockets, legs, and one arm. Need to cast on second arm.<br />
US 6 knitpicks options needles<br />
<br />
Need to remember to stick my Scylla socks in my purse.<br />
<br />
<br />
Spinning.<br />
<br />
I lost 4 ounces of spun yarn to a "pretty" day. Using a mixer to unwind yarn onto a toilet paper roll is a good idea however the execution needs to be better planned out. And an even prettier moment where I thought I could unwind it ended up in an even bigger tragedy. Oh the humanity!! <br />
<br />
Started an Abstract Fiber BFL 4 oz braid. But not much progress since I am still in mourning :'(.<br />
<br />
<br />
Not much sewing and strongly considering getting my own machine.<br />
<br />
I talk about my Gilmore Girl addiction and the new Breaking Dawn Trailer.<br />
