Pour me another coffee, stat! We watched the new version of Rocky Horror last night, and then the old version – just until Frank shows up and sings his first song – and now I just want to finish this coffee and then climb back into bed for another couple …
I have more than a couple thing saved in Feedly…. The Weirdest Things You Never Knew About the Making Of Flash Gordon The Art of Neil Gaiman 31 Essential Science Fiction Terms And Where They Came From Candid Videos Of Astronauts Being Dorks In Space Are Just Adorable (OK, this …
I’m getting kind of tired of people being in an uproar about BBC not making the new Doctor a woman. I’m as much a feminist as the next marginalized human being who’s ever been talked down to because vagina, but am I the only one who remembers there’s been a …
That was a tasty beer. Slightly fruity (it was the “blackberry juice” on the label that got me). — New at Ingenue Avenue, a selection of guest soaps inspired by Sarkara Sweet’s cupcake line! — If you don’t know what this is you may be too young to be reading …
I can’t believe I’m just copying and pasting this from Facebook, but… it’s where I wrote it first, and I’d rather take a long hot shower this morning than rephrase and rewrite it. #Honesty I had such a great time at ICFA I almost don’t even know where to start. …
Move along; move along.
…. uh, okay, I totally can’t think of how to end that. There is no dirt? Well of course there wouldn’t be any dirt… if you washed. But if you washed not? There would be dirt. Erm. Maybe I should retitle it. “Clean, I am!” … or… “When as old …
In nine more days, the pre-orders for Star Wars-inspired yarn will go away… and in sixteen days, the limited number of singles I’ll have will go up for sale. I should have between ten and twelve of each popular colorway, but only about five each of the colorways that haven’t …
I still have a few pre-orders available for the Star Wars yarn — through that listing you can pre-order three skeins of yarn (there are ten colors available) in two different bases (a sock weight and a worsted weight yarn). Pre-orders will ship around the first of May, to get your delivery …

1. Baby blue bathtub soap dish – back in stock! 2. Pretty in Pink in Nalo – New lace yarn! 3. Grooved Bar soap in 20 different fragrances — I debated listing them all here but never mind; you can see them all here. 4. Irish Coffee in Nalo – …
IT’S A TRAP! Hee hee hee. Anyone who has wound yarn off a swift can attest to the fact that sometimes, yes, it does feel like a trap. BUT ANYWAY! Click the link to be taken to the Etsy listing, so you can see my awesome fun photos that make …
So, a couple of months ago, I had this idea (in the shower, where most good ideas appear and then rinse away just as quickly). An idea for three yarn colorways and nine soap fragrances inspired by Star Wars. But was it really a good idea? Would it work? Would …
“I feel a tremor in the Yarn…” “…the last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master…” (Look behind you, Darth!) Oh, was yesterday Valentine’s Day? Maybe I should have gone with Han and Leia! (I actually have a great idea for that photo, but need …
The title of this one is “These aren’t the yarns we’re looking for” only… get it? It’s a Jedi mind trick! They actually are the yarns he’s looking for! Get it?! (sigh) My search for Star Wars toys for this project is coming along nicely. My Sir Alec Guinness as …
Coming May the Fourth: May the Yarn be with you.
For the first half of yesterday, I thought it was Wednesday; then I thought it was Thursday. This morning I woke up thinking it was Friday… and I just realized it’s Saturday. SIGH. The rest of my 2010 photos can be viewed here.
