Spent the day taking care of business, banking, shopping, art supplies for the Moley Round Robin, last little bits for the Saint Patrick's Day Swamp on Ravelry, which is Irish themed and green. Failed at finding new jeans tho. I am SO tired of the ones that slide off my ass. This is me, tired...Yanno, the usual stuff... Gotta tell you, I hate buying the bulbs for the over the stove light in the kitchen tho. Why-o-why do they burn out so fast? ... and me with the Black Hole of Calcutta for a kitchen...
We did have a lovely lunch at La Baguette tho. We also picked up a crafted loaf of Euro Rye Bread to go with the Nutella I bought at the Wal-Mart.
After lunch, we went to the Bead Gallery to find some Tiger's Eye beads, so I can send them to my friend, Frewen in the form of a necklace, in hopes of incentivizing her to make me a Mother of the Bride hat that looks like Tiger's Eye for the DD's wedding. We found some cute penguin earrings for the DD who is fond of penguins (which I did not know, until I made some penguin stitch markers for my friend, Becca aka KnitswithPenguins, and so she now does). She may also make stitch markers from them if she can't find ear wires that don't react badly.
Here are the penguins and here's some of the Irish Swamp goodies and the beads I selected.
