Cake or Death....Lego-Style

Eddie Izzard slays me. Have a few hours to waste? Check him out on YouTube. Come back, after you waste much time over there.

Warning: do not drink anything while you listen. You will snort liquid out of your nose. I promise.


My New Toy!!


The Crop-o-Dile II! (I'm thinking of calling it Audrey II, but that's too obvious...)
Although not often enough, I do scrapbook, and make cards. So when this was sold on HSN a few weekends ago, I decided to take the leap into eyelets, grommets and snaps (oh my!).
It's addictive to use. And it now sits on the table, instead of holding it like a hole punch (and like the previous Crop-o-Dile). You can get right into the middle of a 12" page, too. Lisa and I used it at Melissa's crop last weekend, and loved it. There was none of that incredibly annoying banging to set eyelets (which is why I never used them till now). Now, everything that sits still long enough is going to get Crop-o-Dile'd!!!!

It's Like They KNOW Me!!!!

OTNs - Febbawerry 2008

On and Off the Needles this month...

  • DONE: A funky scarf for Jess that was supposed to have been a Christmas present. Only two months late, huh? It matches her rollerderby costume - she is one of the BEST of the Providence Roller Derby team. I forget the name - it just changed. Will add a link to their website when I get the info!

  • DONE: A cute chunky cap for Anita - again, a late Christmas present.

  • The Einstein coat is progressing nicely, although the garter stitch is going on FOREVER. Finished a third skein, on to the fourth, of Wool Of the Andes Bulky from KnitPicks.

  • And, one last ribbed cap till next winter - this one is for Cris for snowblowing.
