On A Good Note

OK, I've calmed down, and finally got pictures sent to my Mother-in-Law.  I guess the trick is to sign in while you are playing on Pinterest in another window.  I also managed to revive my ipod and am currently downloading more podcasts.  I gave my camera to Bob for him to download photos and video to share.  I will post later.

However, it was a FABULOUS New Years and I will tell you all about it when I have pictures to illustrate.

In the meantime. I am still digesting a delicious dinner, I made Chili Cheese Fries.  With homemade oven fries and turkey chili, it was soo good.  I even drizzled the potatoes in some olive oil, salt and garlic powder which made them extra yummy.

On the knitting front, I am still working on my Acer Cardigan by Amy Christoffers I got the first sleeve done on New Year's Eve in Tulsa and the second one cast on.  I got through the cuff and am about to start increasing the stiches but put the project aside to cast on for my Daybreak Shawl by Stephen West, that my friend and I are doing together for our trip to CampKIP this April.  I am so excited about it, the place looks beautiful and I am really excited to hang out with and get to know other knitters from around the country for 3 days.  I am also thinking about what I am going to bring in terms of hand knits. So far, the Daybreak shawl, Acer Cardigan and Raspberry Wheat Ale Messenger Bag by Kate Chiocchio from the book, Pints & Purls: Portable Projects for the Social Knitter
by Karida Collins and Libby Bruce.  (Yes, I'm citing my sources, I believe in giving credit where credit is due.  Plus its just nice and good.)

I have the pieces blocked for the messenger bag, and I plan on sewing it together and felting it this weekend.

Anyway, It is time for bed!  I will talk to you all later.
