The Grass is Greener
It's been, LJ, is the nicest way I can put it. I've tolerated most of this madness, but the last three months leading up to the "oh no you dih-ent" moments have pushed me away. This will be my final post to you, probably likely. I move to greener pastures today, and over time, my history will move there as well. If you ever feel lonely in the dark ( Read more... ) -

It's V-Day!
Well, it's not Valentine's Day just yet. But today marks the first day of a 14 day special wherein I offer FREE SHIPPING on every order placed by February 14, 2012. Normally, shipping costs $4.95. I do 2-day Priority Mail shipping with those fancy flat rate envelope/box thingies. Keeps things simple. And, in the event that I have a zillion orders, ( Read more... ) -
The World of Click-Throughs
Thanks to some A.W.E.S.O.M.E. friends (you know who you are), I got a ton of traffic to my shop yesterday. With any luck, the mass of click-throughs will result in at least one or two people passing the word on to their friends, who will then share it with their friends, who will share it with their friends, and so on and so fourth. Eventually, ( Read more... ) -

Who is Grover Norquist? Politicians at their best!
It's a question that's been burning in my mind for several weeks now. Actually, many months. And today I finally felt enough burning in the frontal lobe to do something about it.
The Question
Grover Norquist. This man is talked about pretty much non-stop when "REPUBLICANS" and "TAXES" are presented in the same sentence.
"Who is this Norquist guy ( Read more... ) -
Yard work in pictures
Ahhh. Fall. The season of panicked yard work. Snow is knocking on the door and the tree still hasn't dropped any leaves! What is a girl to do?! They MUST BE RAKED before the snow covers the world. Otherwise, you'll have an utterly disgusting mess to deal with come spring. Yuck ( Read more... ) -
I Lovecraft
A week or two ago, I embarked on a mission. I discovered something I loved. And I loved making it. And it loved me. And I loved it. And Frank loved it. And I love money. So, with great enthusiasm, I have created something that is very much a labor of love for the means of making more love for me. And by love, I mean money.

Honeycomb Beanies!
It's pattern day! Posting something I've had written since last December but have been dragging my feet because I really wanted to implement instructions for 2 colors as well as provide a handy chart. Chart was a pain in the ass. And the 2 colored hat model was never finished. Maybe some day I'll just post it as a project using my pattern up on ( Read more... ) -
Irene
Irene came and went. Boy. Did we get lucky. She degraded into a low-quality category 1/Tropical Storm as she made landfall in New England (again? Does Virgina count?) out over in the NY/CT area. Whew. Instead of having sustained winds in the 75 - 80 mph range with 100+ mph gusts, we had 40 - 60 mph sustained winds with gusts up to 90 mph (at the ( Read more... )
