Crocheted with snow

I found out my friend Marcy is the editor of Interweave Crochet yesterday!

Marcy is the one who taught me to knit, spin and will teach me to crochet, because I'm going to finally crack open her book and start a project!

Yeah Marcy!

I (heart) Flight of the Conchords

You MUST check out the first episode of Flight of the Conchords second season over at FunnyorDie.com

There is a great bit about weaving in it, for all us fiber geeks out there.

brrrrrrrr



Baby, its cold outside.

Because it totally snowed yesterday.

Not much knitting lately to show, but some baking and crafting have been done since my last post. I silk screened some calendars that I sold at our little employee craft fair (pics to come at some point) and since there was snow on the ground and I have a habit of procrastination, I baked an apple pie instead of wrapping the presents that I need to send in the mail so my loved ones far away from Seattle can have a Merry Christmas.

I know I'm terrible, but the pie is delicious, not to mention warm and my house has a great cinnamon smell to it.




For those interested in the adoption process so far, A.K. and I are still filling out paperwork. Actually, we are begging people to fill out paperwork for us. We had friends, family, our pastor, the police, the fbi and our doctor fill out forms only to have the Philippine government wanting all the information from these people filled out in a letter form. Aye, yae, yae. So we've had to ask everybody to write all the information they filled out in the forms and say it in a letter.

And we did our home study last Monday. They tell you not to panic, but I was terrified. I spent the entire weekend cleaning. It felt more like cramming for a final of a class I skipped the entire semester and I totally needed the credit to graduate. Good news is, by some miracle, I think I passed the exam.
