- A la persona de Jerez que visitó el blog...¡Gracias!
- I am tired of Christmas already. I know, I know I celebrate Chanukah. It's not the religious holiday I am tired of, it's the commercial stuff. The Grinch Who Stole Christmas should not be airing before Thanksgiving. A wise man once said "You have to be thankful before you can be merry."
- That being said, I am already getting my netflix queue ready for my two week vacation in December. I plan a Quantum Leap/Little House on the Prairie marathon.
- Though I'm still waffling about where my blog should be hosted, I have now made at least one decision. Not Wordpress. My sidebar is just as important to me as the blog, so I want to be able to have the ability to customize that, too. Blogger and Typepad are still considerations. (With blogger taking the lead just because a move will mean time and effort.)
- I spent yesterday alternating among several activities: cat snuggling, knitting, magazine reading and football watching. I now remember why I stopped subscribing to some of the magazines such as...
- Knit n' Style. While the projects are well photographed, many seemed ill-fitting. Not to mention that every issue will have at least one (sometimes more) back-baring or tummy baring design. Ick. Not my style at all. I went on to...
- Knitter's. Waaaay to much color-work for me (and an obsession with mitred squares, it seems.) I prefer boring and granny-ish please, thank you! Which brings me to...
- Vogue Knitting. I really like this one quite a bit. I'm not entirely sure why I let this one go (It may be, however, that it was just this particular issue which was good.) Great articles and fair number of designs I could actually see myself knitting and wearing (although not particularly well photographed.) I was struck by...
- WTFBBQ? What's this on the bottom of page 14? (Holiday 2009 issue) "Watching Julie and Julia this summer Mary Taylor had an epiphany." So MT has decided to knit her way through Knitting on Top of the World by Nicky Epstein. There's a blog and everything. Wish I had thought of that. Oh..wait..I kind of did. (Yes, I'm feeling a bit egotistical. So sue me.)
- A word on commenting. For many of you who comment, I have your e-mail addresses and will respond to you that way. I've had a couple of comments from folks who do not have their addy listed on their profile (which is fine.) I will respond to those here on the blog in the comments box. It is important to me to respond to all comments when I get them.
That's all, folks!
