ALL OUT OF MERINOS....SO SORRY
I thought I would post a picture of the shelves where the Merinos use to call home.... they have a good home now....all 98 skeins of them. They are loved and no longer have to live at the Knitting Workshop and have strangers paw them all the time.
Pepper Weighs in on the Copious Cute Cat Parade
"Those cats are way getting too much attention. Now rub my tummy."Pepper is a member of my brother's familly and one of the highlights of going to see them every year is getting to spend some time with her. For a teeny tiny Chihuahua, she sure loves her some cuddling!
Yam, I'm so glad you're posting! Sorry it took so long to notice.
I mentioned in my last post that I might have a new job. Well, it's now official and I start tomorrow. I will be working with Patty at Stainless Sales Corp. On Wendesday I met most of the people with whom I will be working, and they all seem happy in their jobs and committed to their work. What more can you ask for?
I don't have to tell you how relieved I am. I was heading into the land of very scary, and now I'm not!
But I'm going to be pretty busy through the rest of the month. I had already committed to 6 Fitfare and 2 Foodbound posts for July for the Wellfed network, and I'm teaching two knitting classes. What was I thinking? At least most of the posts are for recipes I've already made--I just need to write about them.
But today I'm frantically cooking because I have to make a couple of them now. I also went to the Farmer's Market yesterday where I bought copious amounts of cheap basil, so I also have to throw together a quick pesto. Yum!
Next week should be interesting--it's been a long time since I've had a Monday-Friday 8-5 schedule, so you may not hear from me until the week after.

Happy Fourth of July!!!!!
Happy Fourth of July, Yam!How did you guys spend it over there? Did you find any ex-pat celebrations or anything?
I spent the day with me, just myself. I made a lovely dinner that I'm writing about on my blog.
I tried to find an image of fireworks with the skyline, but this is the only thing that came up that I'm pretty sure doesn't have any copyright issues. Let's hope I'm not wrong! So just picture those flares going off all over that picture.
I have some good news--I'm pretty sure I have a job. I'll know for sure tomorrow, then I'll tell you all about it.
