Here's just a cursory list of words that popped out as I read (that is, after I decided to pay closer attention to the vocabulary.) I'm not convinced that popular children's literature today uses the same caliber vocabulary. Especially series literature.
- personage
- calamity
- erudition
- pinnacle
- profound
- equipage
There were also several exchanges of word play, but alas I am to lazy to quote them here.
All I can show you today is FROGS.
Yup I'm frogging the Green Grocer I started a couple weeks ago. I just wasn't feeling it. The yarn still wants to be a bag. I just don't know which one. Maybe Rust Goes Green? Maybe another Grrlfriend? (I lost the one I made myself. I have no idea how.)
The other blob is a sweater I made two years ago. It just turned out huge. I finally got around to frogging it this week. (Hmmm, is that a frog or an FO?)
Now I just have to decide what to make with the yarn. Maybe the Mesh Raglan Pullover? There's a CAL starting soon. I'm not entirely sure, though.
I've also joined the Come-Blog-Along group on Rav and I think I'm supposed to list my projects today. I haven't really thought that far. All I've managed is clicking on the "join this group" button. I am going to sit down and get a list together by Sunday.
I've got a theme in mind at least.
And, yeah. I totally know I'll flake out in 3 weeks. Hope springs eternal though.
