I got this yarn on my trip to Wisconsin last month... the blue shades made me think of the pretty views of the rivers. They knit up fast!

School Daze

It's been crazy-busy around here, with the first week of school & all that. My darling baby girl is now a freshman in high school. How did that happen?!?!

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

Our recent trip to California was a little strange... it feels weird going back to a place we left a year and a half ago. Did we really drive in all that traffic? Did we really go around in that constant fog of smog & stress? Better believe it, and I am happier than ever with the Midwest.

However, the trip was not without its charms, one of which was catching a weeknight Dodgers game. Dodgers Stadium is still one of my favorite ballparks, despite the notorious history of Chavez Ravine. The Boys in Blue dropped a game to the Rockies on a bone-headed error in the eighth, breaking a twelve-game winning streak, but no matter. Dodger dogs, peanuts & cokes, cheering 'til you're hoarse, ridiculous foam finger... is there anything as much fun as a ball game on a summer night?
