I am knitting another Thermis cowl, a very addicting pattern. Once in a while, you get those kinds of patterns, once knitted, you want more. Normally for me, once a knit a pattern, I don't want to do it again. There is another one called the Eternity Scarf. Here's a picture of the scarf. This scarf I've knitted 7 times and promptly gave them all away, except for one. That was for me.

On our last visit to San Francisco, we got some Kara's Cupcakes. A day later, they were all gone. The chocolates were for Matthew, Emily and Danielle got the vanillas, I got the Javas, Dad got vanilla/choc, and Joel got carrot. Yumm.
