- It was a BIG week for food! Kathleen brought a dip that Lisa thought it was my humus. It looked like it but was not, it had blue cheese in it which Lisa does not care for. She did not say anything until later in the meeting where she commented about how she wants to like blue cheese tries it but cannot seem to like it. Same for beets with her. Oh well, more dip for us!
- JoAnn brought a cheddar cheese with cranberries, very tasty!
- Lisa brought some shrimp cocktail, with some Tequila Lime cocktail sauce which we all seemed to enjoy!
- I brought some cookies from the Haddam Junior Women's League cookie swap, many I had not tried yet.
- The wine was Ravens Wood Pinot, very good and always a good choice.
Knit Projects
- Forgot my camera so I missed out on taking some pictures of Margi's three finished stockings, they looked outstanding especially the green one with the crystals on it!
- Moebius was the topic again. This time Margi had taken the class at YDU and made two true Moebius scarfs that has the 180 degree turn, very clean looking and will get a picture for next week. In case you wanted to know, here is the Moebius Cast video to make the scarf. Here are also a few Moebius Scarf patterns to try if you are ambitious.
- I finished another Celtic scarf, orange and gave it to my sister-in-law for a birthday gift. I started the vented sweater in green.
- Kathleen was trying a pattern which she seemed to be have some difficulty casting on according to the directions, I told her to bag it but she will be going back to the yarn shop and ask them....."What the #*^k are these directions stating????" I swear our trash mouths come out and Lisa has instigated it. With affection of course!!!! Kathleen did add a very sweet felted flower pin to her bag shown to the right, from Etsy , one of our favorite shopping sites!
- JoAnn was working on a sweater project that was a very neat design, picture is worth a thousand words here because I cannot describe what it looks like! When it is done, you will understand!
Topics Talked About
- Obama's speech and how it effected people we know
- Kathleen went on another job interview with the same place, not sure what will happen but seems to be no pressure on her to get it or not! ow nice is that!
- How can you not talk about Tiger.....who is not out of the Woods yet!
- For the NYY topics, Bryan Bruney was traded to the Nationals for a player to be named later.
- Kathleen brought the Sports Illustrated Derek Jeter issue, my daughter scooped it up and looked at all of the pictures, telling me there were a lot of stories in it about him.
- We decided upon our Christmas party plans, to be held at Kathleen's house with appetizers to be done.
