Tea And Me

Knowing that I am pretty spoiled by my family the other 364 days of the year, it seem silly to have a whole day dedicated to spoiling me. But they did. Breakfast in bed, mimosas, the day to do whatever I wanted, a cocktail and appetizer hour, and a homemade dinner. But Jon, being one of the best gift-givers ever, put together this lovely "tea-themed" package that just thrilled me to no end.
A tea infusion pot, infusion stick, tea bag squisher, a beautiful cookbook, and because he knows I'd never buy it for myself . . . . (that's my story and I'm sticking to it!) . . .
. . . two skeins of Claudia in "Eat Your Veggies" colorway. This should make the next 364 days just perfect.

To Me, From Me

It's no big secret that I purchased a little bit of yarn at the new yarn store while out visiting on Wednesday. But it was just two things: ten of one thing and one of another. Yes, that might sound like eleven things, but it's not. Trust me.Hacho, from Marisol Yarns in color 300. I liked this sweater but didn't think I needed to spend $20.00 to buy the book to make a 3x3 ribbed cardigan. Maybe because I have this handy, dandy software to do the hard work for me. There, saved $20.00 plus tax. Second purchase was a lovely skein of Kureyon Sock yarn in S92. I scoured the Internet, Ravelry, Chris' project queue, for hours about two minutes and found the perfect pattern for this yarn.
There, saved tons of time. Which I'm going to need. The Wollemeise inspector is here. Looks like I have some chasing to do.
