Thank you all for your kind words on my last post, everyone. After I hit publish on that one, I put a dent in a box of tissues, and can now put my sadness away for a while. If you're looking for a happier post, or just want to ogle another knitter's stash, I think … Continue reading 2016 By The Numbers
Happy New Year, everyone. November didn't have a post a day, as I had hoped, but I managed a respectable 18 posts, more than any other month last year.

Then there's the Pilgrims. I definitely don't have … Continue reading Thank Goodness
Hello again readers! This November has been a busy month. There has been travel, and adventures, and yarn, but very little time at home. To center myself tonight, I dove into my other craft: cooking.
