Infinity Scarf...

Well, my weekend project was fun and easy and it's finished. I started it friday night and by monday night I was done. I am really happy with how it turned out. I wore it to work today and it is so warm and soft. 

Below you will find the video tutorial for it.

Weekend Project...

I love this yarn...

It is so soft and the color is beautiful.

My friend Lisa found a really interesting video tutorial for an infinity scarf (which she has started for herself). It is my weekend project.


I figured, with a three day weekend, I should be able to get it done. (Fingers crossed)

On a side note - I finished reading The Kite Runner. It was fabulous and wonderful - I loved it.
Now, to watch the movie...

Books I Love...

I had a lot of time to read this past week and wanted to share with you two books I love.

Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger. She wrote another of my favorite books, The Time Travelers Wife.

I picked The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini is up at a thrift store and it's what I am reading now. It's really good - I can't put it down...

I love to read and wish I had more time for it. I have wanted to buy a Kindle but can't bring myself to do it yet - I just love real books and keep finding them at really good prices...

Mountain Trip...

We took a trip to the family cabin at the beginning of the week. There was lots of snow still on the ground and cold air. It was fun and relaxing, even with the outhouse (yes, outhouse) and the skunk that we knew was spending the winter under the cabin. We had beautiful scenery, lots of time to read and play cards, lots of snacking, a nice warm fire 24 hours a day, snowman building and sledding and fun walks. I love family vacations...
