blogger goodness

I haven't posted any of my blog a days, so here are four, that I have been enjoying this week.
http://knitterofshinythingsknits.blogspot.com/ I'm wishing you had taken the picture of the vonderstash in the Israeli Lady's shoppe. the mind wonders....

http://nellyknits.blogspot.com/, because I love a knitting democrat, and because I AM one!!

http://littlebee.wordpress.com/ I love the art, I love the quotes, great blog

http://darklightphoto.blogspot.com/ A non knitting blog, that has some AMAZING photography, and a beautiful music list.

Bacon oh how I love thee.

I love bacon. I feel as if it should have it's own special food group on the pyramid, though adding Fat back to it would be debateable. Bacon can go with or on anything to make it better. If I can't eat I know I can count on A nice slab of bacon to make me hungry. which makes today all the more horrific. Physics guy wanted bacon for breakfast. A meal he rarely has. So I whipped out the 2 pould slab of applewood and the grill pan, as soon as the normally succulent sweet aroma hit my nostrils I had to run to the bathroom. I couldn't finish cooking it. I had to TIME it during my heaving, so I could tell him when to flip the slices. I don't time my cooking, ever. Fortunatly I can still EAT it, as I am right now, but I'm burning candes and opening doors to make the smell go away. I even went to the store and took the dreaded test just to be sure. I'm not, but I must be getting sick, or all the sugestions of "when ya going to have one" Are making me act like I am. These are the only things that have ever made me nautious over bacon.
On a lighter more viewer friendly subject, on the blog feature list today are: http://theaddknitter.blogspot.com/ I haven't thouroughly investigated her blog yet, but I plan to do so after the school party that isn't really a party so they can have a bigger giant Spring party with the parents party. you see they're only allowed to have 3 parties a yr. damn uptight school board.
and http://www.confessionsofaknitter.blogspot.com/ Who has some fabulous doggies that I LOVE. And on the older posts she has knitter podcasts. Woohoo!

I will be back later for more, hopefully.

A Blog a Day

I said I would post Pictures, so here they are: my socks that I finally fininshed over the weekend.Somehow the second sock was just a bit more snug than the first,Not much and it went away mostly after I wore them around abit. Also I realized an error I had made in the first one, on the heel prep I was supposed to do sets of 4, but I only did sets of three, wich didn't change the size fortunatly because there was a certain number of ROWS I had to stop at , but it did mess up the look and ribbed it. Actually I prefer the set of three to the set of four look. and it feels a bit more padded. thats what I get for putting R 2 and 4 instead of going R1, R2, R3, R4, it usually puts me off and I have to frog. Since it was already finished and seamed there is no way on earth I am mad enough to frog a whole half sock for a part that will not even be seen. Not for a sock I made for myself anyway. If it was for someone else I would. I am still haunted by the sweater I made for SIL at Christmas that was about 8-9 inches too short.


And the boobie pillow I made for Physics Guy, which he loves. Men are so easily thrilled. Thanks to Martha Clem aka StarGazer for the pattern.
I decided since I have alot of fellow ravelers with blogs, that I would read at least a blog a day from them, to find new blogs to add to my list. My reading for the day is coming from: quirkyknitgirl and knitasaur , Ladies from the 20 spot( other 20 something aged knitters)
Knitasaur has some rather delicious looking pink and green socks, that remind me of jolly rancher candy. And Quirky girl is making me hungry for a yummy steak burger. Maybe I just need to eat some breakfast.

Knit shortage

I've not been doing alot of knitting today, or yesterday for that matter/ I have been playing Zelda, my most addictive game. I have it on nes for the comp., Snes for my SNES( cuz I'm old school like that), Physics guy's N64, and now Girly's DS. which is what I've been actively playing all weekend long. I love this game. I kick it's butt. Which Is a very difficult thing for me do to with a game. I am by NO definition a gamer. I get whooped at donkey Kong. I enjoy Watching OTHER people play games, I can sit for HRS. watching PG play SWAT4. But I cannot play, Except ZELDA. I get very addicted to playing it. I almost cried last night after playing for 3 hrs. straight and not saving only to have the battery die on me. I haven't even hardly been online except to check my e-mail and respond to a religious spammer who has decided by some f-ed up logic that If I don't agree with his POV I am " best case scenario, going to hell" yeeeah, I'll be the one with the killer steaks buddy, make sure you bring the A1 mkay. And to check in with ravelry friends and scope their blogs. knitswithballs had an awful xroomie who I would maim horribly if he took all MY yarn and $$. oh yes, ALL yarn. And Yarn's the word's house isn't there yet:(( dadgone mad isn't blogging about poo, and loads of other fun stuff I didn't get to read yet because...Well I had to go to the temple of courage to rescue the 3 rd fairy to get the map to figure out where the heck ZEL got off to this time. I did however get in a few rows at the dentist's office while Girly was getting her "princess crown" and found that I have to go to Brunswick and get more cotton ease yarn or else no shrug for Girly. I only do this on the MOST important projects. I just hope I don't spend too much, since we're now on the write every penny you spend down budget. A $40 tab to Micheal's wouldn't look nice to Physics Guy.
