Off the Needles:The pair on the left is Pair #3 of the 52 Pair Plunge. They're Monkey Socks, designed by Cookie A and took 310 yards of Brown Sheep Wildfoote. This pair brought my total up on the Limenviolet Sock Marathon to 3.3 miles. The pair on the right is Pair #4 of the 52 Pair Plunge and are made from a Knit Picks Sock Blank dyed with food coloring. This pair took 276 yards of sock yarn, bringing my total up on the Sock Marathon to 3.46 miles.
Pair #5 is on the needles and is from Socks That Rock - more next time!
52 Books in 52 Weeks/Book 29: Fudge Cupcake Murder, by Joanne Fluke. Admittedly, I've been on a Hannah Swensen Mystery kick. I've decided it's because they're a lot like Nancy Drew books, she's always saved at the end. But she's an imperfect Nancy, or maybe more perfect, depending on your view: she cooks, she loves her feline roommate, Moishe and she's having a heck of time deciding which of two men she wants to spend the rest of her life with. With all this going on, she keeps finding dead bodies, and keeps her sense of humor.
In the Garden: We've spent most of the last week in California, because our son finally obtained his PhD (has anyone gotten one of these without angst?). We came back to find even more irises in bloom.
