The Meltdown...

That's what I had at the suggestion that we cook another turkey for Christmas Eve.
I cooked three turkeys during November and have come to one solid conclusion.
I love everything about cooking a turkey dinner.
The mashed potatos
The stuffing
The baby peas
The dinner rolls
The sweet potatoes
The Jell-O salad that my mom makes

 Except

I can't stand to eat turkey

So when it was suggested very nicely by my husband that we cook a Turkey for Christmas Eve (the turkey sitting frozen hard as a rock in our freezer) I felt so much rage toward that little fowl that I flat out refused to do it. Short of laying on the ground and kicking and stomping my feet. (it's possible I did that but I won't confirm)

Nope
Not gonna do it
Want nothing to do with it
Nope Nope
NOPE
No.

I pick up the Honey Baked Ham on the December 23rd

Bring on Festivus!

haha, then he should cook the turkey if he wants it! We always do ham and turkey with my family, but it's never at my house- I've only cooked a turkey once in my life, and it was certainly an experience.

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...

Spring Cleaning = no VK Live

I don't get a cleaning bug often. I truly dislike it. I would rather knit than scrub a toilet or polish something... But it happens that I get the urge to purge (too much listening to the Top Gun soundtrack this weekend) and when the momentum is high and lasts three days I won't fight it... I can't. Plus I probably saved at least $250.00 by not going to a knitting expo! Have you ever done a big ruthless purge on your stuff? You can learn a lot about who you are or who you have been... 1. I apparently have an affection for lined notebooks and notepads considering I've counted 17 in my living room alone. 2. I easily have 50+ knitting books on my shelf and have only knit one pattern from one of them. 3. 2011 I was a grumpy snot at Christmas. So grumpy I didn't even open any Christmas cards. I didn't thrown them out either apparently... I'll open them later today. 4. My sister-in-law M gives me some pretty awesome gifts. Funny notebooks (o...

Happy Birthday Mom!

I know I know, I'm a couple days early but I wanted to make sure you saw it before you sailed off to the deep blue sea... Literally. I've been thinking for a few days on what I would write for you on your birthday. How to best express just how amazing you are and how amazing it is that I got you for my mom. You've given me so much in my life that I am grateful for, that to try and put it into words would take a lifetime. I love the time we spend together. I love the way we laugh together. We've come so far and our adventures aren't over yet. I love you mom. Happy Birthday
