What's new? What's new?

Well, this summer has been pretty heavy, that's for sure. A lot of emotional events took place - for the full story, you'll just have to ask. However, one thing is for sure: This is a summer of transition.

Tom and I are about to move into our own place - 3 Days left in The Countdown! I'm a mess because of it, but Tom's cool as a cuke, so there shouldn't be any worries [tell that to my tummy]. We're moving just a few miles north to the Buena Park/Uptown area, back to the lake! It should be just happiness :-D We've only a few more rooms to pack up here, and we'll be on our way.

So, I've seen others blogging about the items they've knitted, and I must say...it looks like fun! I've decided to add some updates and pics from my ravelry page.

Here we go, with my latest project, a woman's scarf. I found the pattern in the Vogue Stitchionary, Vol. 1. It's Pattern #30, The Moss and Diamond Brocade. I think it turned out rather lovely! But, please, share your thoughts!





Lovely, no? Next up, a really cute hat...it'll be something that is fun and simple, while allowing me to try out a new technique I've learned. After that...I will start Christmas Stockings [I hope!]!

In other news, I've downloaded the Google Chrome. I'm loving it. 'Nuff Said.

I've also purchased the Lacie IAMAKEY:



This little, tiny USB Flash Drive is literally the size of a key. It fits right on to my key ring, and is VERY durable! I still can't believe that this little thing can do so much - if you're shopping around for a new jump drive, I recommend this one!

What...else...


Tom, his mother, younger brothers and [our] friend Maria all went to see Julie & Julia. I can't stop raving about the film. Meryl Streep - just beyond herself! Her chemistry with Stanley Tucci was just a delight! Amy Adams was more realistic in this performance than any other of hers that I've seen. And the food was just beautiful. I've said it before, I'll say it again - I can't wait for this to come out on DVD. And YES, I'll be one of the many, many people who go out and buy an edition of Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Vol. 1. Bite Me.

[WELL...not me...the delicious food I'll be preparing...]


That's about all for now, I'll try to begin posting more regularly once we've moved!
