I’d be disappointed by the results, if I didn’t like Myrna Loy so much! I adored her in the Thin Man films. And then, of course, I get to co-star with William Powell and Cary Grant, and who can argue with that? They’re both dreamy!

Have you ever just quit a project while in the midst of it? (We’re not referring to UFOs here, rather projects that you know that you’ll never work on again.) Why? What did you do with it—throw it out, give it away, put it away?
I don’t remember ever putting something away with the intention of […]

I followed a sig line link from a post to the Six Sox KAL list, to Jody’s blog, Killer Peach, and there I discovered some beautiful knitting (love your Ambles, Jody), and a fabulous cardigan sweater pattern, Samus, from Knitty that I’d ignored before because of the orange the model was knit in, and the […]

We had rather a full day on Saturday, what with the filming and all at our house. Our playwright (Johnna Adams), the crew, and a couple of the actors showed up at 8 a.m., and everyone else arrived after 9. People got into their costumes, makeup was applied, the film crew set up lights and […]

I thought it was about time I answered this set of questions. So, here you go.

Are abridged books a good thing or just plain awful? For the most part, and for my purposes specifically, I can’t stand even the thought of abridged books. The first time I saw a Reader’s Digest volume of condensed stories […]

Ice cream or yogurt? Both, but different times, different moods, different flavors. Favorite ice cream: French vanilla. Favorite yogurt: berry blend. Favorite frozen yogurt: fruit medley.
What’s your favorite board game? Monopoly.
Do you play video games? No.
If you were given a chance to change your name, would you do it? I changed my last name when […]

I’m a bad, bad girl. Not only did I order the next three Mercedes Lackey books (The Mage Winds Trilogy), but I also ordered the wool for my Kiri. I’ve been debating about what to get for it for seeming ages, and finally decided on the color yarn. I ordered three skeins of Alpaca Cloud […]

I first heard of moebius scarves when I was a regular reader of the knit list back in the late 90s (that sounds so strange!). At the time, no one on the list had been able to figure out how to make one without simply making a basic scarf, putting a twist in, then seaming […]

I have a friend who, when she’s not writing proposals for her employer, writes plays. She’s getting a reasonable reputation with some of the small non-equity (not professional) playhouses in the area. She contracted to write a play for a small local playhouse. The play is nearly done. The first performance will be in November. […]

I posted a plea to the Townsend Sock KAL group, and got a ton of cool sites to go look at, drool over, and get bag patterns from. Thank you ladies! I haven’t had the chance yet to spend the time all these links really deserve, but in looking at them long enough to get […]
