Creatures of Habit

Same home-made pizza almost every Friday night for the past 14 years.




Sure, we're creatures of habit.  

But we do know what we like.

After attending a ski meet in the rain, there's almost nothing better than coming home to a warm crockpot full of chicken vegetable barley soup.



We've done soccer in the rain, but seriously, a ski meet in the rain?

Downton Abbey Mystery Knit Along

I must (sadly) admit that I have finally succumbed to the mystery knit along phenomenon.  I've resisted oh-so-many years.  This one finally nabbed my attention.




It appears it is going to be some type of gauntlet.  I came too late to the party to obtain the specially dyed Lorna's Laces yarn, so I'm using some stash Lorna's Laces in the Forest colorway.

And I actually knit this while watching Downton Abbey last night!

Now, just eagerly awaiting the clue for next weeks episode.
