Oh, the weekend...

This was Sunday morning during the Seahawks game.
Post Murder Mystery Dinner Baby Shower.
Post the not so hot pink but highly drinkable Barbie punch.
Post cake that is not appropriate content for this blog.
Post Friday night hockey.

It was a fun weekend
If you've never had a murder mystery party I highly recommend it. I had never done one and when we got rolling Saturday night I couldn't stop laughing.

We had so much fun with mystery part and then we celebrated the new baby who will be here in December...

The cake was awesome.
I saw the picture and sent it to Lisa as a joke. Lisa's husband sent it to Clint as a joke. Kim and Clint were excited that the cake I sent, which was horrifying, was awesome and so glad it was going to be their cake!

But like I said... Not appropriate for here.
But use your imagination... It has to do with birthing...

Vicki did an amazing job with it.
It was delicious.

Sunday I crashed. I knit and kept my feet in the 'up' position all day.
I finished my Age of Brass & Steam. It's just waiting to be blocked. I'll probably do that tonight... Or tomorrow.
I cast on a pair of Dancing Bamboo socks from the book Pints & Purls.
I've made them before, they are wonderful.


Happy Monday all...
I'll post about the ABS tomorrow :)

SSYC... My First Official Yarn Crawl...

It's true... I've never actually participated in a yarn crawl or LYS tour. When I worked at So Much Yarn I had the pleasure of working the weekend of the LYS Tour but I've never done it. Well, the SSYC, South Sound Yarn Crawl covers 9 shops that aren't included for whatever reason in the Seattle LYS Tour that covers around 25 shops in the area. Maybe they're too far off the beaten path. It's not because they aren't in Seattle because there are shops way way way out of town that are included in the Seattle LYS tour. Whatever the reason, it's not important. What is important is that Mary and I both took Friday off and hit the road. I caught the 7:15 Ferry to Kingston, Arrived at Mary's about 8:00. Mary and I have the same china. Mine came from my Grandmother, her's came from her mom. Tried making friends with her fluffy dog Mae. Someday she'll come to love me, for now I'll respect her tenative personality and love her fro...

Remembering...

I don't know what karmic cosmic angels were flitting around today but they led me to the coffee aisle at the grocery store. More specifically it led me to the international moments. Which led me to thoughts of my grandmother. I loved her. I knew deep in my bones that she loved me. Grandma loved her International Moments coffees. Just smelling them. Holding the tin (though it's different now) Brings back memories of being with my grandma. She said these were her special treat and she'd make one for me to. Grandma made the best fresh blackberry pie. I know they were fresh because when she came to visit us in Bellevue she'd make us help her pick blackberries. She was the master of Christmas cookies, chocolate chip cookies and raspberry freezer jam. I make freezer jam from time to time and it reminds me of summer visits to Boise. Helping grandma in her garden, making sun tea, and smelling her roses. Sometimes, I buy a tin of Interna...
