Things I learned tonight.

December 23rd, 2007 Leave a comment Go to comments

Grocery shopping late at night just before Christmas is good, in that it cuts down on the crowds, and bad, in that the produce selection is awful.

Hot cocoa with peppermint schnapps is delicious. Thanks for a lovely evening, Rachel!

In other news, I’m taking a Jayne break until after Christmas. Currently on the needles is a non-Jayne order, a dinosaur/dragon hat like the one pictured at left, but for a baby. Instead of the Lamb’s Pride worsted pictured, I’m using Karabella Aurora 8 for machine washability. There are about a million ends to weave in on these, but the end effect is always worth it.

Also, Christmas-themed stitch markers. Here’s hoping it warms up soon, because what I learned from these is that the vapor from the sealant really doesn’t dissipate indoors, no matter how many precautions you take. Is that tipsiness from the schnapps or the sealant? The world may never know!

    Hey! I just went shopping tonight between 9:30 and 10.

    And yeah, it wasn’t so much the produce for me, it was, well everything else. The bread aisle was practically empty. 🙁

    Look at that giant head!

    Meredith now wears that hat and informs everyone that she’s a dwagon (roar!). If you ever wanted to sell a girl version let me know.

    Have a happy Christmas!

    Heh. That giant head is chock full o’ brains!

    If I did a girl version, what colors should it be? That yarn has a lot of color options, as you can see.
