Word of the Day

Destinesia - The experience of purposely walking to another room with the intention of doing something then realizing you have no idea what it was you were going to do.

I went out blackberry picking. It had been so hot and humid and now it looks like the picking season is over faster then one could imagine. As I was picking the last of the blackberries, I noted that it smelled like Fall. The leaves aren't changing. But a cool front rolled in and I notice that it's only 68°F today. I better get out and pick the beans. They must be as confused by this weather as the tomatoes.

Sweater Project Update. I started on the sleeves. The cuffs are finished and I've completed eight inches beyond the cuff. It should be interesting to see if I can make all the increases called for before I reach the underarm length that they call for. Oh well...I have really long arms so I'm sure I'll have knit the arms longer then they ask for.
