Monday isn’t really the new Friday, but a fast-topic-changing Monday can make it feel like it. I give you permission to pretend the weekend starts today! Funny, after not posting for a while, I’m kind of nervous. Like, maybe I’ve forgotten how to do this! Let’s see how I do… I’ve had all four Basenjis […]

One year ago, I was experiencing a seriously rough time. Like, life-changing rough. I didn’t know WHERE I wanted to live, or HOW I was going to live. All I knew was that I was suddenly single, and that everything was changing. So much has happened in the past year. It’s so different, and so […]

Happy Independence day, fellow Americans! And welcome to the 2008 edition of the Fast-Topic-Changing Fourth of July. I’ve been ignoring verypink for the last couple of weeks, but with a decently good reason. I also haven’t been taking as many photos as I normally do, so I’m recycling (recycling, good!) some of my self-portraits for […]

ME, the PERSON of VERYPINK, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Fast-Topic-Changing Friday. I’m so glad this turned out well, since it’s a […]

I have another chapter to My Sensitive Security System…this time with photos! It all starts calmly enough. Last night I was home from teaching a knitting class, watching Deadliest Catch and knitting. Abe is suddenly really interested in going outside. I put my knitting down and open the back door. I plant myself back in […]

Sort of a Fast-Topic-Changing Friday, except I’m going in chronological order… My mom sent me this photo of my niece, Molly Renee, in the Vestee I made for her. I love to see my handknits in action. Yes, this child is adorable. Next…! Last weekend, The Knitting Nest hosted Franklin Habit on his 1000 Knitters […]

Don’t touch that dial! It’s time for Fast-Topic-Changing Friday…with your host, Strawberry Shortcake. One expects verypink to be a bit pink and girlie, right? Well, this week it’s double the long eyelashes, hair bows, and mani/pedis. Because… Suddenly there are equal numbers of boys and girls in this house. This is Mia, a girl I’m […]

The people are real. The cases are real. The rulings are final. This is Fast-Topic-Changing Friday! If you didn’t get that, it only means that you don’t watch Judge Judy. Off the needles – another One Skein Wonder, but with some modifications. Like, two skeins. I added sleeves to this one, and used 2×2 ribbing […]
