I know...yesterday wasn't bad..but today was much better. We were done before 1:00 and it was great. Husband and I went to (finally) get me a (Texas) driver's license..and guess what? The office was closed! Until Friday!! Oh well...so we went to the grocery store and then to Harry's for a couple of beers.
Russ has a beer system set up at Harry's. They sell Lone Star...Russ drinks Lone Star. The cooler that they keep the Lone Star in is not very cold...so they keep Russ' Lone Star in a separate cooler. Hence...they are ICE cold!! Muy bueno!! I very seldom go to Harrys'...but today I got one of the coldest Lone Star's in Alpine. mmmmmmmm!!! Well worth the wait. So...we visited for a bit then came home and ate weird stuff. Weird in the sense that it was one of those days when you eat all the leftover stuff in the fridge.
Now I am knitting another cap. This is more of the Lion Brand Yarn - Chenille Thick & Quick in the #1333 Eucalyptus. Beautiful color!! I also found a pattern on line through the Lion Brand site for an afghan using this yarn. It would be really soft and heavy. In the Eucalyptus, Wine and Ivory colors It would be awesome. I may consider these afghans as a next project.
I also ordered a a teddy bear pattern on line. A cute faced bear. I think making it a sweater made out of this chenille would be a super accent. Great Christmas gift...hope to make a few for the craft show. I hope I can find some appropriate fabric for the bears. Perhaps a plush terry material.
We have quite a long day tomorrow...so I may not be as productive tomorrow night.
We planted some cilantro and parsley last week and it has finally poked through the ground. We had a planter full in front of the house for the past 2 years...but it got pretty spindly so I ripped it all out and started a new batch of each. Nothing better than fresh herbs.
Well...another day almost over...so I'll finish up this cap and get some shut eye. later!
