My mom is visiting, and she has requested socks :) I've been meaning to make some for her forever (and even had this yarn picked out for them). She looked through my sock knitting books and picked out these ("Sam" from Cookie A's Sock Innovation for those who are wondering). Will be a fun project!!
New yarn!! I need more sock yarn like I need a hole in my head, but I just couldn't resist these gorgeous colors. These are from Fireweed Dyeworks (out of Anchorage, Alaska), and they are both self-striping. Because William and I love Alaska so much, that makes me love this yarn all that much more. Perhaps I'll knit up a couple pairs of socks to wear the next time we're in AK! Did I mention that colorful yarn is super fun to photograph? :)
the morning passed quickly
(probably because, uh, i wrote my first query letter).
and then, after work, a date:
veggie grill and her.
Today, one of our stops was the Butterfly Conservatory. The butterflies gave us tons of opportunities for pictures, but this was one of our favorites - the Cairns Birdwing Butterfly. We loved the vibrant colors and the fact that this one appeared to be a bit more rare than the others they had (which were all quite beautiful by the way). One of many fun things we did today!
23/ 366 - Ride in the park. Way overdressed! TWC claimed it was 38 but "felt" like 28. I ended up unzipping my coat and taking off my gloves halfway through. Definitely much warmer!! I rode with +Doc Billingsley to campus and we picked up Worlds Fair donuts for later ;) Then came home through the park. Very quiet-- saw two other bikers, a handful of runners, and one guy belting out "I Believe I can Fly" way off-key :)
Playing around with my new lens (i.e. the Lensbaby Spark tilt-shift lens). I'm still getting the hang of it, but I totally love the effect it gives me on pics!
Also, roasted asparagus=yum. Easiest veggie ever to make:
-Pre-heat oven to 400F
-Snap off the non-floret looking end (don't worry, it will naturally snap where the asparagus goes from tender to woody)
-Line asparagus on a baking sheet
-Drizzle olive oil, and sprinkle salt and pepper on asparagus
-Roast for 10 minutes.
That's it!

299.365 - October 26, 2013 - My son Carsten had another marching competition today and they didn't allow spectators to take photos or video, so I took a picture of my daughter and Krista. Krista is the daughter of good friends of ours from church and our two families do a lot together.
do i ever note that it's friday
without saying "finally"?
probably not.
the evening by myself,
full of whiskey, music, voyager, and pizza.
Hora de ir pra casa. Hora de pegar a estrada. Hora de deixar 2012 começar.
