Phew! It’s 44 degrees today and I’m loving it! No it’s not my 60′s and 70′s from days of LA past, but I’ll take it! See, for the last two weeks we’ve been subjected to highs of ZERO and ice and snow and winter of DOOM. Yeah ok, maybe not that bad, but it says [...]
Beautiful Fall.
This is, hands down, my most favorite part of living in the Midwest.
As the vegetable turns.
My my…. what do I spy? A growing cucumber. Some tender green peppers. A budding squash flower. Some sweet carrot tops.

This weekend we headed down to my in-laws so that Wes could finish up a curio cabinet that he’s building for his mom. [...]
Beautiful fall.
Today I put Round 3 of interviews to bed and I’m feverishly hoping that soon I’ll have good news to share. Until then I’ll leave you with (of course) more knitting and some lovely pictures of fall. The Pattern: Mega Cabled Scarf The Needles: US 15′s The Yarn: Sheep Shop, Sheep Two The Verdict: This [...]
And here comes round 3.
The big news of this weekend (well Thursday and Friday) is that I have now progressed to Round 3 of job interviewing. That means that on Thursday of this coming week I will be meeting with a whole new set of potential colleagues and bosses, including the president and CEO of the company. Let’s hope [...]
Busy today.
