We have a little girl, and are always on the lookout for toys that are safe and a bit outside of the box. I was so excited to find a line of animal toys in Target, Animalz. I really liked them the first time I saw them, they are quicky, a bit artsy and seemed [...]

My husband and I went out to dinner and to do a little shopping tonight. Life has been pretty hectic for us lately, and so getting some time alone was nice. There is a great little restaurant that makes pizza from all the kinds of ingredients I would use if I was making pizza. The [...]

I was talking to mom about being worried that the seeds won’t sprout, and that I felt like I had no idea what I was doing, and all the other worrying statements I tend to make, when I spotted a SEEDLING!! My onions have sprouted!! So I guess that I can relax on the worrying [...]

I mentioned a little while ago, going to my LYS and seeing a very adorable book, Baby Knits: 20 handknit designs for babies 0-24 months. Well, I made it back and now the book is mine! I really went back and forth on getting it since my little girl is getting to the top of [...]

I found that several of you were coming to my little blog from Sparkle Power Sew Along. I had [...]

I did it. I think it’s utterly ridiculous, how long I procrastinated the completion of these socks! They fit nice, a tad large, but not too bad. I need to wash them and see how that effects them, but the knitting is complete!
I used Alpaca Sox yarn, by Classic Elite. I [...]
