Today, it’s Tuesday, so you get a list:

1)  Ok.  So enough about the crappy weather.  Guess what I saw the other day?  The turtles from our pond were sunning themselves on a rock!  That HAS to be a good sign, right? RIGHT??????

2)  In the meantime, to break up the monotony of my Second Story Tee, which is coming along nicely, I started the Lophelia cowl:

I think it is very pretty, although it’s hard to see, really, while it’s on the needles, and not terribly far along.  So, go click the link and see the pattern picture.  It has short rows, so there is not a lot of bulk in the back of the neck and it hangs nicely in the front.  Kind of like a necklace.  Kind of.  I’m using Periwinkle Sheep Watercolors yarn in the Rhinebeck 2010 colorway.  Yes, I have had it for 4 1/2 years, waiting for the right project and this is it.

3) I changed my phone ring tone and text alert tone to the “popcorn” sound because I love popcorn and I love that it is named popcorn.

4) I made this:

Martha’s Cheddar Topped Shepherd’s Pie.  So. Very. Yummy.
