Check out i am wicked cheap’s giveaway of an Easy Lunchboxes eco-friendly lunch box system.
I have seen this lunchbox mentioned on a couple of different sites and it looks awesome. If I had one of these, I would actually eat lunch everyday.
Be sure to check it out!
My sister sent me a great email yesterday. This was the opening pic.

I saw this on Craftzine today.
It’s a clock. It knits one round on this scarf every 24 hours. This is so cool. I really want one but I think it is beyond me. For more info on the clock check out the article on designboom.
I actually started a knitting project last night. I started the gauge swatch for Sackboy which I am making for Princess Ivi’s boyfriend. He is going away to boot camp in the fall so hopefully, I will have it done by then but if not by then, definitely by Christmas. Have I mentioned how much I hate doing gauge swatches? I do. They are boring and time consuming but I guess they are a necessary evil.
It feels strange to be knitting again. Kind of like renewing a long lost friendship.
I made refrigerator pickles on Sunday. I already sampled them because I couldn’t wait the two days the recipe called for. They are good but a bit too salty. I am hoping that the salt issue is just because it was the bottom of the brine pitcher and that the first container made is not so salty. Of course, I will still eat them anyway.
