Brunch at Emma's

A little visit at Emma's house. Gus dancing to Ron's guitar playing and a lovely spread of snacks. Must remember to get some of that goat cheddar. Delicious!

Nice to see the homemade gifts in action. Suzie seems to like the quilt and Gus says goodnight to the flags every night. Such a sweet boy.

knitting bug

I don't knit much in the summer. There's just something unappealing about carting around wool when it's hot. But when it's cold I like to sit around and knit and drink tea. So I'm getting back on Ravelry and checking out patterns and making frequent trips up to Three Bags Full. A couple of weekends ago I made this scarf and some fingerless gloves. Plus there are lots of other projects on the way.

gocco!

The Print Gocco finally made its debut. Trish brought along this owl image and the pink ink. We had no idea how well it would work and literally gasped when we saw the first print. I think it was the first successful printing experience of Trish's life and she made all of these in about 5 minutes. Seriously awesome.

birthday brunch

Chocolate bourbon cake and champagne & juice with frozen cherries. We did eat actual breakfast things too but these were the highlights.

saturday

An afternoon visit with Gus and the gang followed up with hot chocolate before going to see Whip It. Now I am inspired to take up roller skating. Shawn thinks roller derby is my sport but I'm not convinced. The whole "it's not if you'll get injured but when" doesn't sound encouraging.
