It's Britney Bitch!

Or at least me...sorry for the extended vay-cay from bloggy-land. Just enjoying the end of summer to it's fullest!

So our floors were refinished by the man. They turned out pretty well, he does good work. I'm still searching for just the right rug for the dining room. He also scored us a new computer armoire so all this hi-tech stuff can be shut away, making our dining room look a bit more tidy and ol' fashioned. The way we likes it.

AFTER STAINING AND VARNISH:



So the Reign of Chaos is just about over. No cat tracks in the varnish and the furry ones survived a major lock up in the 2nd floor without a hitch. They are so good!!! If only they realized mere cardboard and duct tape had seperated them from exciting kitty mayhem...but alas, they were duped.

In the meantime, the Knit went ON!! I did score me some Maizy, which is a lovely fibre made of corn and I am sockin' it to the knit world! I'm still on the first sock and hope I can keep on going through the 2nd but some other fibre also distracted me and I have started a sweater (ahem, of my own design) for moi. I have 3 projects I am rotating right now. So much for keeping things simple and ending the chaos...

Here is my sock with my awesome new owl-y teapot to match my little owl-y tea cups. Plus my vegan oatmeal-chocolate chip-coconut cookies.

We are also about up to our eyeballs in tomatoes! Anyone want any? Also the eggplants have proven quite tasty, especially when served up as Eggplant Parmesan, Vegan Style!


So that adds most of it up in there. Sure, there was a visit from my sissy and Irish Fest and other fun thrown in between but one can only stand to type so much at a time. Enjoy the last days of summer kids, Mabon is around the corner and then on to Samhain. There was already a chill in the air today...
