HeidiHo’s friend Karen has two children with cystic fibrosis. Karen and her children are participating in the Great Strides walk this coming weekend. If you pledge money to support them and let Heidi know about it before Friday, May 18, you will be entered in a drawing for a skein of Scout’s yarn.
Amy! had a good post about a knitting wiki – and do read the comments for a link to another one. Zenifer posted a nice list of one-skein projects. Vicki posted a list of triangular shawls organized by how many yards of yarn they use. Both things sound as if they would be great additions to a Wiki!
Yesterday I had the most amazing gluten- and lactose-free frozen dessert – Organic Rice Divine by Good Karma Foods (make sure your sound is turned down and that you have Flash installed). Click Products, then Pints. I tried Mudd Pie, which was very tasty (coffee flavor, with gluten-free brownie bits in it). But I am totally in love with Carrot Cake, which tastes exactly like carrot cake and even has bits of gluten-free carrot cake in it. I hadn’t had cookie/cake bits in ice cream or “frozen dessert” for over 10 years (since being diagnosed as celiac). Bliss.
Jeanne and I went to Shepherd’s Harvest on Saturday. We had great weather! I’m going to spread my report out over a few days and today is Lamb Day, featuring some pictures that Jeanne took of me. The little black lamb was a Shetland and the white lamb was an Icelandic. Aren’t they adorable?! (I don’t know how Jeanne always manages to get so much, um, chest in the pictures.) (Please note that the cats are taking a vacation day today. They’re just too hot to do much of anything – it was 92F yesterday!)
chris had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow…..
I need a lamb. But I need a farm first.
Very sweet indeed – such a beautiful stance in the last picture as well. Glad to see you and Jeanne had such a good time!
The lambs are entirely too cute!
Wow it was warmer there than it was here. Oh, those lambs are just so cute. I would be tempted to see if they would follow me home. Course the neighbors probably wouldn’t be too happy about it.
Chris,
It sounds like you had a great time! I’m jealous and in severe yarn envy… Just one small thing, are you sure that you had approval from both your kitties to go visit the furry things that help to make yarn??
I adore the lambs dear, but what I really wanna know is…on your feet…Keen Isabellas? I r wanting them badly.
ooohhh the little lambs are just TOO adorable!
Those lambies are just too precious!
Isn’t it great when you find a GF/DF food that is *Really* nice? Mmm, yum! I might have to go find that last muffin I bought a week or two ago (frozen!).
Oh I hope that I get to the US in time for Estes Park but I don’t think we’ll be there until the end of June. Dang!
Those lambs are cuties – they always are.
Oh! I want one! Do you think anyone in my neighborhood would notice? I could try and pass it off as a poodle.
Those lambs are so cute. I am almost cute overloading!
clevage and baby lambs what more could we ask for. Sooo cute….. the lambs…. the lambs are sooo cute… ok I’m done!
Eee! I want to take the black one home with me!!
Ok how you didnt take those lambs home with you is amazing!!! Chaos and Mayhem would have adjusted!! Ok those lambs would have been dinner, but they are so cute!!!
Glad you could enjoy the carrot cake!
Best wishes to your friends in the fundraising. I’m not in a position to support this year.
Oh I can’t tell you how jealous I am! Those wee lambs are just too cute 😉
And congrats on going wireless! I’ve been wireless for umm a year or 2 and still can’t get over wandering round with my ibook from room to room still connected to the internet. Even better, I can be online drinking tea in bed 🙂
