Accidentally looking through the stash I found about 1600 yds of malabrigo laceweight baby merino.
And so now there is this.
Beginning with 8 stitches of laceweight yarn on size 7 dpns and getting past the first 5 rows was absolutely a Force Of Will. I had the same mental state as I did 2 winters ago when I was determined "I WILL NOT GET STUCK IN THIS DITCH" (and didn't.) Now past that point and onto a circular, this is WAY fun. The row repeats are easy so far. There have been a few mistakes but I'm thinking if I'm 95% accurate I can live with it. I either skip a k2tog or add a stitch as needed and that's only happened twice.
The search for things to plant in the dirt may have to wait until next week. I think I'll be knitting today.
Last night's Hamburger Helper experiment was a success. I used ground meat, taco seasoning mix, cavatelli, milk, water, cheddar cheese, cornstarch and stewed tomatoes. The recipe came from the blog- chickensintheroad. I could have easily skipped the taco seasoning mix and tried it with chili powder and paprika but that was just on the "little bit too much risk" side of life.

WHAT A GREAT DINNER IDEA..... DID MR. SOPHANNE LIKE IT?
That is some gorgeous lace, girl.
I hope you don't take it personally, but I have to leave this blog now because dude, there's already way too much temptation in my life for me to be looking at that shawl.
