That is such a pretty scarf. Yup that was what i was doing last year knitting scarfs. This year it is fingerless gloves, demands are different. And then there are socks too. I have finished 2 pr of socks, 2 pr of gloves, 2 hats, one lace scarf and one sweater. I till have to do at last one pr of fingerless gloves, toe pairs of slither gloves, some socks and sweaters.
I love baking. My favorite cookies are two my grandma made, one was without eggs and nuts i know and then it melt in your mouth like butter. The other was a cookie that had dates in it. I never found the recipe for eithr. But i will bake any cake or cookie just hand me the recipe.

After a severe ice storm last night where my sister lost power(perhaps for
days) I picked up a generator and will deliver it to her tomorrow if the roads
become passable. Her cellar is filling up with water because of the high
water table in her area and no power means no sump pump! I’ll also deliver
some HOT coffee and something yummy to eat. That is my RAK

On the RAK –
In my neighborhood lives a set of elderly sisters. On my early morning walks with our dog, Addie we stop at the bottom of their driveway and pick up their news papers and place them at the garage door. Addie and I do this not only on cold Decmember mornings but year round. One of the sister has a health issue that often has her in overnight hospital stays. The other sister does not leave her side. So often the news papers or trash can are not taken back up the driveway. Addie and I help out by moving these items out of site so that the house does not have a “nobody home” look. I do not know if the sisters know who does this for them, however I know they do appreciate it.

I’m getting through my knitting by sheer determination. I rec’d my TLE package on Monday with Cascade 220 that I needed to make felted clogs for a gift axchange TODAY!! They are DONE, I am proud to say. I’ve got’em in the washer right now. They’ll be slightly damp… but it’s the thought that counts right!

I am very much not done with my holiday knitting… I still have two pairs of socks to knit that I haven’t even started yet… but both of the recipients will be OK getting cool little IOU notes with the promise of hand-knitting goodness in the relatively near future.

I am within three projects of done with gift knitting. It may end up with balls of yarn wrapped with an IOU to my mom for the socks she mentioned at the last minute last week (not on my original list for Xmas) but she will understand.

Favorite holiday cookies – Snickerdoodles, because that is what Grandma used to make as a last minute treat. Yummy!

Happy holidays to all!
