Birthday number 52 came whether I was happy about it or not. Earlier this year I had planned an Art party to celebrate. That went the to the wayside when I hurt my ankle. So I was a little depressed at not having the Birthday celebration I wanted.
This morning My friend Amy came over with her new tortilla cooker. She brought the fixins for tacos and we had a nice brunch. The little cooker she has is great. You just place a ball of dough on the flat service and then pull the cover down and just press it and it cooks the tortilla. They were great.
My daughter Sarah made me a lovely chocolate cake from scratch. Yummm. We went out to dinner at the Texas Roadhouse and was that good. I had a Fat Tire Beer, yummy roles, the house salad which is the best in this town and a nice 6" sirloin and a fantastic baked potato. They gave me a brownie as a free dessert it was yummy.
Dave got me a set of speakers for my MP3 player so now I can sit here and play any music I want without using the headphones. That will be nice. I asked for a Nalgene water bottle from Sarah so that was what I got. Its a pretty shade of blue.
Knitting Olympics
Well I did not get very far into the shawl but I was still glad for the experience. Right now I noticed an error a few rows back so I think I will be ripping a bunch or rows out. May as well make it right.
The Mara KAL starts soon. Here is all I did on the sweater over 10 years ago. It is the third pattern I always had trouble with. This time I know a lot more about 2 color knitting. I also plan to use markers to separate the 36 st pattern repeat. I hope that will make it clearer and I will actually get to finish this.
