Oh, I’m still here alright.

Had a busy week. Had a nice visit with my sister and her girls. Had a couple of days off from school for the poppets. Had breakfast in bed a la Marigold. Delivered a bunch of stitch markers. (Thanks!) Here, see for yourself.

the appetizers ( cheerios with powdered sugar and or nutella on them — ok for weight watchers, she says– plus something to play while I waited)

the breakfast

the tea

and Rosemary showed up with chopsticks and tooo much lipstick, as usual.

ALL this plus I practically finished a sweater–bsj-front.jpg

and these are hats that Jim is going to get if he doesn’t LOOK OUT!

The awesome skeletoque aka skeleclava from Instructables ( a site I am growing very fond of…) Here you can learn how to eat a banana LIKE A MONKEY AND how to grow a square watermelon!! Things that you have probably never thought you needed to know how to do– but I bet you’ll find something you fancy there! You’ll see.
See the skele-slide show here.

I suppose it is a breezier version of the Knitty Jekyll & Hide which is underway, but slowly.

Then there’s the truly wacky beard-hat. I can just see him on the train in this one. You can buy one in Brooklyn for $135.00– or just wait for the pattern. Jim may want interchangeable mustaches, I will have to consult.

More as it happens.
