Girls Night Out was GREAT


I have had a great weekend nice long weekend. I took yesterday off because it was my birthday. I paid a visit to a very nice yarn store in Greensboro StitchPoint. I went to buy yarn for my partner in the Wild and Woolie yarn swap at Crochetville I hope my partner likes my choices. I ordered online the last skein of yarn I need to make the graphic granny afghan the first issue of crochet today! magazine also brought at Hobby Lobby today yarn for another afghan in the Feb/Mar issue of crochet today! I will start that project tomorrow. I will post pictures of my progress. Tonight was Girls Night Out we had a great time we went to Arigato Japanese Steak & Seafood House. The food was great and the chef was awesome service was wonderful. I am posting a picture of the chef who prepare our meal. When my partner receives her yarn and extras I will post a picture of what I sent to her and I will post a picture of what I receive. Happy crocheting and knitting.

Long time since my last post

Well it has been a long time since my last post. I have not crocheted I did start reading a book Playing My Mother's Blues, by Valerie Wilson Wesley. I like the book and I think if I put my mind to it I can get it read quickly. I am participating in the 50 book challenge hosted by a member of Crochetville. I have a crochet project picked out to start this weekend and it's also girls night out this weekend and we are trying to find somewhere to go that we have not been. I have my partner for the Wild and Woolie Swap at Crochetville so now the search begins for the perfect yarn to send and the extra. I received a great puffy from my dish cloth partner from atmyhouse@yahoo.com posting a picture. I am sure all Harry Potter fans know that the release date has been set for the 7th and final book in the series I can't wait. Friday I plan to visit Barnes&Noble to see if you can put name on the list for a book or if you will have to prepay. In the past you could just request a book at Books a Million you have to prepay to get a book that night. I will have to go to the last midnight party this will be my third party. I did not get started from the beginning with the parties or the books. Happy crocheting and knitting.
