... *sneaks back in*
It always feels weird to make a blog post after an absence of posts. I don't know what to say, while at the same time having WAY too much to say.
Or it could be a symptom of life and all the stuff I'm dealing with right now. Some things you can talk about and some you can't.
Been busy, but before I get into all that I'd like to announce the name of my recent unnamed soup. The lovely and talented (and glowing and recently married, complete with three heart beats on her person right now!! OMG go check out her blog and her wedding photos AND news of the people inside her!!!) Rachel came up with the winning name. The others were very good also, but the soup didn't cure me a bit. (Still coughing, but MUCH better) It also wasn't as spicy as you'd think. It was more tangy than anything. So the name Rachel came up with fit the bill and is something I love.
The name you ask? Margarita Chicken Soup
In addition to the prize she will get that will be selected just for her amusement, I will also make a batch of it up for some upcoming and not too distant get together type thing. (If A is there I'll mix up a batch of the Margarita Vegetable Soup as well.) :D
It's soup AND it ties in with Resolution #10. Perfect! *L*
On the knitting front I am doing well. I am In LOVE with sweater knitting. *giddy laugh*
Oh knitting, my fibery true love, how you keep me enchanted. My passion for you never wans and even during stressful times I come back to you, like lovers parted but never unhearted. *makes sloppy wet kissy noises*
Hi, Still Weird! :P
So the sweater I'm making for Dulaan is coming along well. I started it last Tuesday (5/8/07) and I'm certain I will finish well before the deadline. :D
Here's a progress shot with George trying it on. 
I'm really enjoying the repetitive and simple knitting in the round on this. Plus it's worsted weight yarn on size 10.5 needles. (Larger needles, cause my gauge seems to be extra tight these days. Thanks stress love you too! *pokes stress in the eye* Bitch.)
It's funny how many half finished projects I have going right now. I barely have enough Know Knit, GoKnit Pouches from Scout to hold them all. *L* (Love them, highly recommend them!)
Now I could finish up some of my current projects as soon as this sweater is done... OR I could cast on for my own sweater.
We'll see. Maybe I'll finish this project and knock out two more. Then I could start another project relatively guilt free.
It will be interesting to see which projects are selected to be finished. I've got my own pile/island of misfit knits going on over here. *L*
Woo!
Busy Knitty Otter!
Loving that sweater. ♥

Glad you're feeling a little better. That sweater looks great, and what are you feeding George? He looks like he's put on a few pounds *smile*

Glad you're feeling a bit better. Even if the soup didn't help, I'm sure it tasted WONDERFUL! I love trying your recipes. Thank you for sharing them.

Wow, I'd like to thank the academy for this lovely honor...he he. That was so nice of you not to mention the large bribe I sent in along with my soup name suggestion. :) The sweater is looking good!

Sorry you are still coughing. Lots of projects give us reasons to live. Right?
