1. Please remember to keep the bathroom doors closed. 2. If you can’t find something, check the backyard.

Last night I was talking with my friend, and the conversation turned to dogs. That just happens to be one of my favorite topics. He said that dogs don’t feel “love” the way humans do, and to assume that would be incorrect and a personification. He expected me to disagree with him – but I […]

…orange stars, and green clovers. This is the first ever not-so-fast, fast-topic-changing Friday. Instead of lots of topics, I offer you lots of pink. You might think that it’s all pink, all the time here at Verypink Headquarters…but it really isn’t. Just on Valentine’s Day. Let’s take a look at some of the pink things […]

Fast-topic-changing Friday! Double the topics for the same low, low price! Snow. Not really, but probably the closest we’ll get in Austin. This is popcorn material that used to be on the ceiling. It took a lot of scraping to get it down. What a messy, messy job! There was popcorn and dust everywhere (including […]

Today’s Early Bird Special – a fast-topic-changing Friday. I’ve said this before – I’m a stashless knitter. I am not a yarn collector. I buy yarn, I knit it up, and then I buy more for the next project. Here is my best definition of a knitter’s “stash”: Yarn that is purchased by the knitter, […]

Fast-topic-changing Friday ahead… Yes, a milestone birthday – but not me. (Not yet. Three more months.) Today, Ike is 10! Happy Birthday, my sweet Munky. He and I have a lot of history together, and I’m so happy we found each other. He is as active and spry as a 4-year-old. Next…! Carrie test-knit the […]

Welcome to fast-topic-changing-Friday Island. While I was drunk with power and in charge of The Knitting Nest (and having crazy sales that involved extra discounts on pink yarn), Stacy was at TNNA in California buying new stuff for the store, driving around in a convertible, and getting a tan. It was a win-win. Stacy also […]

Rest in peace, finished object. Bye for now. Here’s the story… My FAVORITE socks. Finished back in April of 2007. Toe-up pattern, Socks That Rock yarn. Approximately 26,680 stitches. So vibrant, so young, and such a bright future ahead of them. The other night I was enjoying some downtime with my homey-dogs, wearing my favorite […]
