Trying to be more diligent about posting...lets see what's going on in our world. I've been knitting a tiny pence jug, which is not looking as perfect as I want and I'm annoyed with that. Also my super dry and snaggy hangnails have caused some of the knitting to be fuzzy and I'm royally annoyed by that.

My garden has taken off. Lots of zucchini, yellow squash, and enough cucumbers for two rounds of pickles so far. Tomorrow hoping to make garlic dill pickles. The irony is I don't like pickles so I keep hoisting them off on other people and asking for feedback. 

The next costume event remains Belvidere, which is only a month away! O.O I should get my arse moving in that direction. two dresses in a month doesn't SOUND like a ton...but it totally is.

I saw a bunch of people started knitting pence jugs. Is it part of that Facebook KAL? Sorry yours isn't coming out as nicely as you'd like. At least it's a beautiful color.

And two dresses in a month DOES sound like a ton to me! Good luck.

yeah I started as part of the KAL, I'm a sucker for a team project. I like to feel connected :-D

It's not horrible just...clearly there's a learning curve with 0000s and silk thread. I'm used to the cotton I think.

Sally Hansen cuticle massage cream. You can buy it at any drugstore. It smells like apricots, and it makes me feel pampered when I find time to use it.
