IT LIVES!!!!!!!
Hello all, I have some good news! My online store is up and running. I am now able to take Money Orders and Checks in payment for patterns (hopefully non-paypal Credit Cards early next year). There are still a few bugs to work out, so I’d like your help with that. Please tell me if […]
How to Roast a Chicken, or learning to love salt and fat

You will need: A whole Chicken Onions Baby Carrots Garlic Butter (REAL butter, not Margarine) Salt (I like […]
In which I dance around in craziness.
Things are simultaneously crazy and boring… how does THAT work?! I’ve got a bunch of things I’m trying to get around to, but i’m also very bored in general. So I’ve been knitting while I read HIPPA and Human Research Standards training presentations. As a result the Spearfish Socks I’m making from Gems Pearl in […]

"Prooogress, we're making Prooooooogress!"*

M is for….
Mama! This is my Mom! Her name is Claudia. She is the often overworked and under-rested mother of 7 children, and for most of her working life she’s been a Teacher. Mom taught me to read, and write, something that I can NEVER thank her enough for. Reading has opened worlds to me that I […]
Blessed
I had a good weekend, having spent Saturday trying to relax, rejuvinate and get back all that I’ve lost in the last few months of hectic, but it didn’t come flooding back until Sunday. Sunday was C’s birthday, and I spent the morning (while he was sleeping) obsessively frustrated with the Hidcote shawl* and stressing […]
