Remember girls jumping rope?

This ain't that.  Just keep watching.  I was sure glad I did.

The sheer athleticism these kids show is just amazing!

Pie baking time..

So, where actually, does the pumpkin come from, you may inquire?




Now go bake some pie.

Talking cats...

Ok, this just made me wanna curl up with my kitty's, not that's a likely possibility any where in my near future, but I digress.
Check it out.

I changed my mind about the puppy...

I know, how could I??


Well, I took a trip to the local animal shelter here with my son to see what they had and you can predict the rest of this story.
Except that it was a kitty.  Er, another kitty, in my case.
A very, very cute boy kitty.


Please allow me to introduce to you all, Mr T.


Still, fresh in in box.  Which I assure you, he has left.  He is now hiding behind my bookcase.


I really don't know how anyone can go into one of these shelters and not have their hearts broken by all these poor cats and dogs!  Not to mention, taking one home!  Of course, only if the necessary desire is there to provide a good home.

So, now Ms Snickers will have a playmate.  As soon as I can arrange a meet date.  First, I have to coax the fierce and mighty Mr T out from behind the bookcase.

Might be a couple days.  :)

Easy as pie!

And, viola, Apple Crumb pie!  Yet, just another reason why I workout.
Albeit, a delicious one.

Two socks and one little hat...

Part of the storm of knittin' :)







Now, get out there and knit something!

Me no bloggy long time.

Yeah, I've been lazy.  Pretty much.  I didn't workout or run for the entirety of last week!  I don't actually know what I did.  hmmmm...Well, yeah I do...I was lazy.
But it was the kind of lazy that you earn.  Ya know, the lazy you get to do after a spell of some really hard work.  Like say... painting walls and ceilings.  Or heavy lifting whilst doing the work of the yard variety. 

I was, however, knitting up a storm.  I shoulda snapped some pic's.  I will, later.
I'm in sort of a sock frenzy.
Oh, and I was watching the Tudors, courtesy of Netflix. 
We did get some stuff planted.

One Katsura tree:


One Paperbark Maple:


A Lemon scented Cypress in a tres' heavy concrete planter placed on a tree stump:


Lastly, I didn't plant this, but I would of!  I love Autumn Sedum! 


Next up I promise to post on all the projects I've got going.  Whether of the knitting variety or other!

See ya!
