It's been a fun weekend around here. I worked at the office job on Saturday morning then dragged Rob to the Habitat for Humanity Restore just to get out of the house and browse. Well they were having a 75% off all green tags sale (for the Eagles apparently) and I found two cute vintage hats for a steal! I didn't NEED them but...hard to pass up for under $2 a piece. Then on the way home we were about to pass my local tea house and HOLD ON A MIN IS THAT AN ANTIQUE MALL I'VE NEVER NOTICE *screeching change of lanes* Rob was a very good sport and wandered around with me looking at oddities. I ended up buying a pair of white leather gloves and another ADORABLE hat. This one was a few more dollars but it reached the level of NEED IT. So maybe I'll try and sell on the other two to happier homes to justify my hat purchase.

Hat #1: A lovely navy velvet number with some kind of spazzy feathers I thought were derptastic.





Hat #2: is a hilarious pink straw with a GIANT flower. It looks fairly stupid on a head but when I put it on with hair it actually filled out and was kind of charming.





and Hat #3 that I just HAD TO HAVE:









Then today I packed up the rest of Christmas. I had taken it down and piled it on the table but still needed to really repack into the tubs I bought. It over-summered down in the basement in cardboard and a lot of things got moldy and I had to throw out a bunch so not going back there this year. Then I settled in and had a delightful time knitting on a sontag I started for ktlovely


Good models are hard to come by.

I also snuck in a few rows on my pinball! I'm enjoying having a big easy, needs no thought project to alternate with the tiny needs-my-full-attention project.



And I shall leave you with a picture of Rob and I modeling what I have called the poop hat but sadly that did not come home with me.
