I've Got More Booty Than A...

I can't think of something to write in the title because I am anxious to tell you about the goods from the mini prge! I received the package yesterday from Obsidian Kitten and it included: the Punk Knits book, Cherry Tree Alpaca, Sugar and Cream in beautiful greens (perect for the wash cloths I plan to knit), some handmade magnets, three beautiful purple pansy candles, a lovely candle holder out of blue/purple potter, some super cool stitch markers, and some lovely smelling soap. I am so pleased and appreciate my gifts so much! They are lovely, just lovely. I read that Ms. Obsidian Kitten is not feeling well. I hope that she is feeling much better soon. Hugs and kisses and well wishes and all of my gratitude! (links to be added later)

8. What would you like your pal to know that is not covered here?
I am pretty easy to please. I am a horrible speller. Right now I am consumed by sock yarn and sock knitting. I love reading, visiting museums (I used to work at two in LA), yoga, listening to music, running, going to concerts, beachcombing, visiting Montana, swimming and sewing. I am a stay at home mom with two amazing boys. I don't like pina coladas but I do like getting caught in the rain.
