Yummy Weekend

What a nice yummy weekend I had. Or maybe I just thought that it was so great because it started for me on Thursday!!! That could be part of it!
Had a lovely time in Michigan with my daughter's co-workers, at her shower. Fun! That was on Thursday evening, then we came home to her place and put away MORE baby things and did loads of laundry in Dreft. Yum! Then tried to decide how to fold all those tiny things. That was so much fun. I told her that I can't wait to see HIM in every outfit!
Slept in on Friday till about 8. That's late for me. Then we went to breakfast at this yummy health food resturant. One of our favorites! On the trip home I did stop very quickly at the Fiber House Yarn Shop in Grand Haven. It is under new ownership and I haven't been there in over a year and let me say that it is not as great as it used to be. Not near the stock. But I did buy enough Noro yarn to make the shawl in the Cornelia Book 2. I can't remember the name of the shawl and my book is not here with me. I choose a verigated yarn that has different soft blue and wine colored shades. Very different. Wish I had a camera! This shawl will be a very quick knit. And I plan to start on it after Karalund.
Speaking of Karalund!!!!! I started working on her when I got home on Friday, just for an hour or so in the afternoon, then the same on Saturday afternoon. And last night was able to "camp out" on the couch, watch tv, and knit! I really have not been able to do that for quite some time. It was bliss! Hubby worked at night last night, left about 4pm and so I was on my own. I have the back of Karalund finished and 2/3 of the front done! I love it. I picked quite colorful Silk Garden but I think I will enjoy wearing that sweater.
On Saturday night hubby and I went to a Mexican resturant for dinner. Yummy again, and wonderful Margaritas:)
I'm suppose to be reading for my book group that is meeting Oct. 22, with the author!, but I have not been doing very well with that. I can't stop knitting in my free time! On Sunday morning hubby and I went to breakfast at the Cracker Barrel and while we were waiting I was "shopping around", they have such cute stuff, anyway, I notice a rack of books on tape and CD. You pay $21.00 and then you may use it for one week. At the end of the time you return it and get all but $3.50 back. What a great idea!!! And I think you can return at any store. Great for traveling! Who thinks of this stuff?
Well, that's all for today. Happy October to you!
