I won't go into the stuffs that has been going on the last year. I'll just say I was busy and most of it was life stuffs I don't blog about. That and computer issues.
:P
I'm posting from my new computer now actually. Just got it last week. LOVE!
Though I'm a bit weirded out by how different TypePad is now... again. o.0 That'll teach me not to wait 7 or 8 months to update. Sheesh.
In knitting news I am knitting my first pair of gloves. The pattern is Knotty. :D The yarn is Sundara Sock, colorway Marina over Icicles. Love!
Yesterday I made super yummy pies. Well the pumpkin is yummy. Haven't tried the apple yet, but the crust looks faboo. It's the first time I have made my own crusts. Soooo nifty!
I'm making some French Vanilla Ice Cream to go with the apple pie at the moment. YUM-E!
I recently cashed in some credit card reward points for gift cards to Williams-Sonoma. I am the owner of a super cool Cobalt Blue Kitchen-Aid Stand Mixer. I got the ice cream attachments and the pasta attachments. Wheeeeeee! I also got a proper rolling pin, rolling pastry mat, a Blue Le Crueset 6 quart dutch oven and some other fun toys.
I hope to start posting more, but don't hold your breath and I won't beat myself up if it doesn't happen. There is lots going on and I'm just happy to have some time to knit again.
Life is all about balance and I'm still looking for mine. ;)
good grief, that mustabeen a lot of points! /heading over for fresh ice cream...

Welcome back! Congrats on the mixer -- our kitchen aid is going on 20+ years -- may yours serve you as long (or longer) and help you churn out lots and lots of yummies!

You're going to LOVE that Kitchen-aid mixer. It's my favorite kitchen gadget. And I'm totally jealous of the pasta attachment. I've tasted the pasta it makes with the Williams-Sonoma pasta mix and it is fabulous. Think I need to go check my rewards points...
p.s. Love, love, love the entralac scarf pattern and made tons for Christmas presents. Thanks so much for the pattern!!!
