Look what my Saucy Pal sent me!

I'm a lucky gal, I received my Saucy Spring Swap package just a bit ago. I had just written about wondering when I'd get my package, and there it was. My Mamacita teased me because the mailman brought her a couple packages and she teased that it must be for me b/c she thinks I spend too much on getting packages. Ya, well, I may, but I don't go to Marshall's every day and spend money and it's kind of the same thing. So anyway...I got the package and knew it was from my Pal and could tell her, that this was a GIFT, a swap, and I didn't order anything. So there.

My package came from Lisa in Washington and I cannot find a link to a blog, so sorry about that. Look what she sent me.


The socks are just lovely and they fit perfectly. She also sent a Mary Engelbreit writing pad and some french vanilla soap. The knitting is lovely and I love the colors. Thank you Lisa!

Wordless Wednesday, etc.

Wordless Wednesday





There still is time for you to sign up for the Saucy Spring Sock Swap! Just go here on Swap-Bot and sign up. The pattern is free and really lovely. You knit a pair for your pal and receive a pair that was made especially for you. I can't wait! I'd love to knit a pair for you!


Join Us! Sign up by end of Friday April 11
Here is a pic of my Lace Ribbon Scarf. I really like the yarn, it has this pretty pink, with touches of green and even gold in it. It reminds me of Spring.Oh crap! I thought I'd get to bed early again but I forgot that Hell's Kitchen is on tonight! I LOVE that show and will try to stay up to watch it. I'll take my cough medicine AFTER the show.

Please.....PLEASE... comment if you are reading this, I'm feeling bloggy depression... It seems people are reading, but not commenting. Can you tell me why? Is there a reason? Is it the way I write that deserves no comment or does not invite your comment? I'm just wondering....

Pay it Forward!


I got this from my new friend Ada at Dutchknitting in the Netherlands...


"I will send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment on my blog requesting to join this Pay It Forward exchange. I don't know what that gift will be yet and you may not receive it tomorrow or next week, but you will receive it within 365 days, that is my promise! The only thing you have to do in return is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog."


I am in! How about you? ?For the first 3 people that respond I have a handmade goodie I'll send you.


What do you have to do?


  1. Respond on this blog and give your email address so that I can contact you for your address.

Are you a joiner?

Hi, I joined Secret Pal 11 tonight. Have you ever been involved in a swap? If not, I'd encourage you to go to the link and check it out. And if you are a pro at swaps, come join us too. It's really fun and a great way to get to know someone. It's been awhile for me, I think I was in SP4 or 5 it was over 2 years ago. So I'm ready for another one and I'm looking forward to meeting others, my pal in particular and enjoying the swap. Come join us! The deadline for sign-ups is July 31st.
