Two New Pairs

The yarn I used for these socks was from On Your Toes. It's bamboo and wool - incredibly soft and works up beautifully - so beautifully that I'm considering making a larger garment out of it.

These are the socks I made for my friend, Barbara, after she sent us a cute do-rag that she made.

High summer

The tomatoes are ripening, the lettuce and beans are done for another year. The flowers need extra fertilizer. The other crops in our garden mature slowly under the blazing August sun and the frequent showers. Roger and I celebrate twelve years together.

How do you delete blogs you're following?

cause I'm sick of the one I'm following. Cheesily metaphorical, amazingly self-absorbed. I know that's what blogs are for - to provide a place to promote oneself, right? Anyway - if anyone has an idea how I can get rid of this honey, let me know.
OK - this is how you do it: go to Blogs You're following, hit settings and follow the instructions. Ha! I really cracked that code, didn't I?
