Stephanie Wins One!

Congratulations to Stephanie for winning the movie line contest for Muppets in Space. I laughed so hard when you answered "Muppet Babies" and with such conviction. I knew you knew what you were talking about, just got the words mixed up. And thank you, Tim, for keeping the world in balance by correcting her. We do what we can.

The next movie line is:

"...and in the morning, I'm makin' waffles!"

Good luck to all.

In knitting news, I'm coming along very well on Girlie's Girlfriend's Swing Coat. Here is my progress so far: It is knit from the neck down in one piece. The picture is of the back, and shows where the sleeves are being kept on waste yarn. I'm about two inches from binding off the bottom, and then I will be ready put the sleeve stitches on circular needles and finish those. The pattern suggests an attached I-cord along the edges of the coat, which I'm looking forward to learning. I'm using Blue Sky Alpacas Organic Cotton, and it's knitting up like a dream.

There is no school today for Girlie. ZimDee doesn't have school on Fridays, so we are on vacation today. Girlie does have Brownies this afternoon, but until then we are staying in our pajamas and drinking chocolate milk and playing. I love these days.

Woo-Hoo. I could hear this as I read it.
Pajama days are my favorite day.

Thank you thank you Unka Shaina!! Um... you said that when somebody won, they could put in a request for a prize??? I was wondering if my prize could possibly be something from Girlie... perhaps one of her most beautful dragon drawings? I'd love one!! :-) :-)

Hi Stephny, said dragon picture is completed and will be on its way shortly to you. Girlie loved that you commissioned an original piece of artwork from her. Let her know when you receive it. *Love*
