What's On My Hooks, Needles, and Spindles:

Mother Bear Project--the website, for info on making bears.

Finished:

Nancy's socks in Paton's!



Gray Dawn--another Collie scarf for the Terhune Sunnybank memorial



In Progress:

Easter Egg Entrelac scarf

The Pink Cascade Socks--first sock is done.  I am moving through stockinette on the second

The OHM Shawl by Michelle Miller. No, I have neither finished not forgotten this one...

Or this one:

Eleanor Scarf--spun from Eleanor's undercoat and knitted in my favored checkerboard pattern.

Also, Entre to Entrelac book.

My LYS: Creative Ewe Studios

Dizzy Blondes: 

Planning to take the Spindolyn to Sunnybank to spin for the Collie folks there. Thinking of learning to needlefelt.

Planning the t-shirt quilt and the Pennsylvania Dutch pattern for some hand embroidery (fraktur). A bit about hexen as well.

A bit about how to make a t-shirt quilt.

Strategy:
Learn your financial patterns. And see the section below on Apps to manage money.


Put a Lid On It:
Fiesta Salsa and Jalapeño Salsa canning for the year. The 2-day method: one day to just run tomatoes through the mill, a second day to actually make the salsa.12 pounds of tomatoes made 17 cups of processed tomatoes. 13 pints total between the 2 types of salsas.

My favorite books:

The Joy of Pickling
The Ball Book of Preserving Foods
The Joy of Cooking
The Perfect Scoop

Aw Shoot!
Daily 30 minutes on treadmill or elliptical to rebuild stamina. Hoping to get back to Running Dog podcast soon.

Something I Really Like:

Acorns and Clarity Money apps. My credit rating has gone way up since I started taking these 2 apps seriously.

Blather:
Chasing rare Pokémon birds with the Santa Clarita Valley group.

We are losing Teavana! OH NO!!!

Calendar:

August 18-21, 2017: Sunnybank again--northern new Jersey
Dec 13-17: Anaheim for Evolutions Conference!
