I knit more on the entrelac scarf project last night and I only have 8 more blocks to sew before I can put the quilt top together. I did manage to get some work done on the blocks but they are not yet near being finished.
It went down into the 40s again last night. It is just becoming light outside
Could it be the morning for French toast? I’m going to think about this for a bit. :) I have another busy day in front of me so I will leave you with the best quote of the day - from President Obama:
“Governor Romney seems to have a tendency to shoot first and aim later,” he told CBS News for its “60 Minutes” program. “And as president, one of the things I’ve learned is you can’t do that - that, you know, it’s important for you to make sure that the statements that you make are backed up by the facts, and that you’ve thought through the ramifications.”
The best poster for the day:
Have a good one!

US President Obama condemns 'shocking' consulate attack - this is exactly the way this situation should be handled. Needless to say Mittens doesn’t fair as well with his response - just confirming that he is not qualified to have the honor of serving as a President of the US.
