Time Travel

Today I treated myself to a little "me time" after I finished cleaning the house.  I popped in the DVD The Lake House and settled in with a blanket and some knitting.  Soon I forgot about my knitting and sat captivated with the movie.  From this I have realized a few things about myself. 
1.  I am a HUGE Sandra Bullock fan.  She is truly an amazing actress.
2.  I am a sucker for love stories that involve time travel.  A few examples include of course the movie of the day, The Lake House.  Others are 'The Time Travelers Wife,'  and Hallmarks' 'The Love Letter.'

I strongly recommend that if you have not had the chance to view any one of these films that you take the opportunity as soon as you can.  I promise that you will not be disappointed.

Scarves

After learning how to knit only a few months ago I decided to make several scarves to give away as Christmas presents.  Next time I decide to make my gifts I will need to plan a little bit more ahead to get it all done.  The entire week before Christmas I spent every spare moment and may early mornings knitting in order to finish them all up.

Cable scarf I made for my mother.



I made a total of 5 of these ruffle knit scarfs to
give to my sister and sisters-in-law's
