This knitter has completed a project.
And then photographed the project.
And actually posted it - on her blog.
So very flattering, taking your own picture in a bathroom mirror.
You can see I couldn’t wait until I had added the collar and woven in the ends. I had to try it on. I did have someone else take [...]

Mmmm…what is the connection between Knit Blogs and fabulous food? I’m not sure - but I’m grateful.
Look at what I made for breakfast this morning. Recipe here! I would use a little less butter - just sayin’.
So delicious - the aroma of baking apples, fresh cinammon and cloves.
I found this via Fig and Plum - [...]

After losing Trivia again.
Yep - I was knitting in the bar.
So cozy.
The big Chef’s night - which included singing, dancing and juggling waiters as well.
Not all of us could wear our hats so well.
Our last port of call: Ketchikan. The salmon were running.
Dolly’s House.
Here’s an interior shot of my favourite bookstore. This chair is conveniently [...]

The famed Whitepass Railway.
The Volendam.
Can you even believe there is finally a picture of Passin’ the Dress Code?
The pesky hem kept rolling above the elbows! Something to be said for blocking I suppose.
Here are some of the towel ‘pets’ that would greet us after dinner.
I loved the little paper eyes they used. So cute. There [...]

Sooo I really let things fall by the wayside while I was away. Yes, yes we walked nearly everywhere for most of each day but…not enough to counterbalance the food choices I was making.
But oh was it yummy! We had Thai, Dim Sum, Vietnamese (oh the Iced Coffee!! - not many calories in that condensed [...]
Or maybe that should say “whew!” That was a jam packed 4 day trip. So much fun. It was so fabulous to spend all that time with my brother and his fabulous fiance, that we are so privileged to be adding to our family! We were so comfortable - it was like being at home, [...]

(this title is a bit of an inside joke - a parent from our preschool brought us a book of horrific fables from Nepal - one of the stories was called Audacity Awarded…maybe I will type it out for you…seriously this book is full of stories so awful they remind me of The Eye of [...]
