There's knitting once a month at Merlin's Rest. Why did no one tell me this?

Today is day three -- flower day! It's hard to imagine flowers on a grey, snowy day, especially when you're stuck inside with two shows back to back. (Especially when the audience for the first one was dumb.) On the break between shows, I ran to Target for necessities (kleenex and mouthwash), and wandered past the "seasonal merchandise" aisle.

Made some new friends, and (re)connected ( Read more... )
