[...] the best part of it, anyway. I thought their sauce recipe was ok, but next time I’ll use my grandma’s spaghetti sauce for this pizza. This was adapted for my big deep dish pizza pan, but you can split it up for [...]

Hooray for spaghetti sauce and 10 days with College Boy!

Three Things:
1. I just spent 8 days with my family. When I got married I moved to Ohio with hubs and my family is all the way in Washington State. Eight days by myself with my parents was wonderful!
2. I got a swift and ball winder for my birthday from my mom. I had to ship them home, and they just arrived today. I just got done re-winding some balls and winding the remnants of sock yarn. I had way too much fun!
3. It’s Opening Day for the Reds!!

Now that you’ve got me craving spaghetti, here are my three things:

1. I did a couple of home repairs today. I’m not very handy, but, apparently I can be when I have to be.
2. Stalking, er I mean checking out the site for Fleece Artist updates has commenced. I think I’m going to be ain a battle with Miss Violet for some. (I totally know that she can kick my butt, so it’s not even a contest)
3. I’m having dinner with a good friend from high school and his boyfriend. I’m taking a very cool and very easy dessert for a chocolate parfait type of thing.

For movies, have you seen The Illusionist with Edward Norton? I got this by total accident and loved the movie. Well worth the rental price!

Woo, more yarn! I think I’m about due for another order. I think so far, the fleece artist is my favorite..but there are so many I need to try before I can say that for sure.

1- I still have not taken pictures of my first pair of socks for my blog. I am feeling rather bad about this. I might do it right now. Then of course, you will get pictures to put in your socks on trees gallery.
2- I am so glad it’s spring break. Ever so glad.
3- My boyfriend flew to Caracas yesterday. Lucky.

Things I didn’t do enough of this week? 1) laundry! ugh 2)sleep! but does anyone? 3) cleaning, in general…but I did finally get the Christmas tree down. Something to be proud of…I was beginning to think it had taken up permanent residents in my family room. At least I can knit between loads of laundry.

I love the Meida sock, especially in that teal-ish color with the longer cuff! I think the next Favorite Socks I’m going to knit are the Embossed Leaves Socks…I think they would look nice in cranberry red. (I don’t have cranberry red, or much anything else in a solid color, so you need to get in some more Lorna’s Laces solids! )

Fleece Artist, woo hoo!

How fast do you have to be to ever get to order any yarn!!!! Before I can look at what is up on the site, it’s gone!!!! I’m sad. Will I ever get to order yarn pirate? Now, that the crying is out of the way!!!! , do you ever get colors that are good for mens socks- you know, banker dark grey, shades of grey, and then there is always black and grey!!!! Sounds like a storm cloud! If so, can you suggest which ones?

One thing I didn’t do enough of this week: Study. Next week I have my PhD comprehensive oral exam. I’m just about scared out of my mind!
One thing I did too much of: Knit. Instead of studying, of course. As a result I finished a pair of mittens, a hat and one sock.
One thing I intend to do this weekend: order the book Favorite Socks. It’s supposed to be available in Canada tomorrow and I’ve seen so many beautiful socks coming from the patterns in that book, including your Meida sock. It’s gorgeous.

And one question (sorry, that’s four things): Will you still be getting in Cider Moon Icicle soon? I love the Glacier; it’s so soft and woolly, in a lovely, traditional way. I ordered more this week, but I am looking forward to trying the Icicle, too. I;m rather sad that I missed out on the Yarn Pirate. I stalked the computer all evening but just before the update my husband decided to defragment the computer and by the time it was done all the Yarn Pirate was gone! So I’m looking forward to your next shipment.
Have a great week with College Boy!
