Weekend Wrap-Up

Sunday afternoon...Super Bowl Sunday afternoon...the clock is ticking...before long...KICK-OFF!

Sure hoping the Saints can win today. The latest polls show that most folks are rooting for the Saints but predict a win for the Colts. We'll know in a few hours from now.

I had the pleasure of attending a 'Luau' yesterday with my youngest daughter. Two of her girlfriends celebrated their birthdays with a Hawaiian/Luau theme. How perfect for a dreary, winter day! There was hula-dancing, limbo, music and laughter. Authentic food and (best of all!) pineapple upside-down cake! Remember...I'm the cake lover. Cake is good! Pineapple upside-down cake is better! Aloha!

I've really been enjoying my loom-knitting. Waiting for the arrival of two looms; a sock loom and a 'single rake' loom (particularly good for dishcloths I've heard). I've made a throw, scarves and hats. Also just finished the knitting portion of a shopping cart/high chair cover. I'm fascinated with the idea of making socks and dishcloths. My family doesn't understand that one but apparently I'm not alone. There are tons of knitting books out dealing with socks and dishcloths. The only down-side to loom knitting is that there are a lot of different types of looms one can acquire, and, of course...I want them all!

Oh well...ready to settle down in front of the tv for some football and grading school papers. Hope your team wins!
