    Why I Knit

    Thursday, 27 April 2006 7:34 P GMT-08
    There’s been a swirl of conversation in knitting blog-land recently around why we knit, what we knit, why we knit what we knit, and what tools and yarn we use.  Some take the position that there’s a right and wrong answer for each of

    Train Rides

    Monday, 24 April 2006 7:37 P GMT-08
    This Sunday, instead of watching other people take the Niles Canyon Railway, we took it.    Mr. Ken has been trying to get a friend from work to take the train, and as it turns out, he’d never been on a train before.  Sunda

    Distracted

    Sunday, 23 April 2006 9:23 P GMT-08
    I've been a bad blogger this month.  Normally I really try to blog at least 5 times a week, maybe more.   But in April it's been hard. Too many distractions, and not enough knitting to write about. First, the knitting.  I'm

    A Good Homemaker

    Sunday, 16 April 2006 5:50 P GMT-08
    I have no illusions about my homemaking skills.  I do OK, but I'm not a great homemaker or a Martha Stewart.  Cooking is OK, although Mr. Ken isn't always sure about what I cook.  I should point out that he cooks too, and I'm not

    Knitting! Yes, really!

    Tuesday, 11 April 2006 9:03 P GMT-08
    I take BART to work daily now, and that gives me about 40 minutes twice a day to read or knit or work crosswords or stare out the window.  Mostly I knit, but sometimes I read. Here's proof: First, a baby set made a few months ago, not on BART

    Well, it was a weekend

    Sunday, 9 April 2006 11:59 P GMT-08
    Yup, it was.  Not good, not bad, but definitely a weekend. Saturday was the usual routine, except the sun was shining!  We were stunned, and stayed out in said sun much too long.  Even with sunscreen I burned.  It was wonderful

    My horoscope is never right, but is usually pretty entertaining.  Why is it that this week there have been 2 entries that are so right on? Here's the second: PiscesWhen you feel sad, mad, bad

    I'm a Great Aunt!

    Wednesday, 5 April 2006 10:49 P GMT-08
    As of 7:11 p.m. EDT, I am a great-aunt.  Kidlet is quite small - 4 lbs. 10 oz. and 18 inches - and probably won't be going home for a whiile.  Mother and baby are doing well. It's time for me to knit some love in the form of wee baby hats

    Daylight Savings Time - Finally!

    Sunday, 2 April 2006 3:22 P GMT-08
    I love Daylight Savings Time!  From what I've read in blog-land, this is unusual.  Yes, I now get up and it's dark at 5:30, but it's light by 6:45 when we leave for the train station and the BART station.  More importantly, it's stil
