Since my knitting is the same old boring stuff (which I’ll subject you to, anyway), I figured I’d take a cheap shot today and show off my kid’s knitting. (Other People’s Knitting must be fair game, right? Especially when said Other People live in your house and don’t have their own blogs…)

A summer Sunday with no plans or obligations whatsoever. Another indicator of heaven, right here on earth.
You may have noticed that I have been taking the easy way out of late, posting shots of garden flora and not always replying to your lovely, and so appreciated comments. It’s summer, you see. Although I must by necessity sit [...]
The coreopsis are blooming, right on schedule.
Have a great day, everyone!
Suspend your spiritual beliefs briefly, and imagine that our trip through this world is our only shot. Whatever we do, however we behave, whatever our experience, that’s it. It’s what we get.
I recently read Here if You Need Me by Kate Braestrup, a Unitarian minister who works as a chaplain to the game wardens for the state [...]
I’ve been enjoying various renditions of Ten Inventions that Make Life Easier this week (officially it’s the Ten on Tuesday for the week, but I was busy then). Here’s my take on ten:

The other night I made an oldie but a goodie for dinner: grilled pork tenderloin. I’m not sure I can legitimately call it a recipe – it’s maybe more of a method, but whatever it is, it’s tasty. Here’s how I did it:
First, have the Family Grill Meister get the grill going – if you’re [...]
As promised, I bring you the report on Sunday’s 10K run. It was a lovely day – sunny and reasonably cool. Perfect for running, and the RF and I indeed had a great run. We stayed on our pace the entire time, felt great, and finished strong. I even had some sprint in me at [...]
As most knitters know, Saturday was the first day of Summer of Socks.
In honor of the day, I cast on for a … well, not exactly a sock.
I have two different pairs of socks in progress. One is the purple toe-up I showed you last week. The other is the second Meilenweit ribbed sock I wanted to finish [...]
I’m off to run my 10K . Full report on Tuesday. Tomorrow, adventures in knitting – including my inexplicable decision to cast on for a non-sock project on the first day of SOS!
Have a great day!
Today, it’s not as blue as it has been the past couple of weeks…
…Still, it is certainly nice enough to hop aboard this…
…to ride to the farmer’s market, and find this…
Salad for lunch!
Happy Saturday everyone!
