halloween treats
odd that for a soda brand that i don't really care for, i am now blogging for the second time about jones soda. but this was just too good to pass up, even though i knew it couldn't possibly taste good. shows how much of a sucker i am for marketing. especially 'limited edition' holiday stuff.
yep, candy corn soda. and check this out, caramel apple!
how awesome is that? they are also those cute little mini cans. too bad they taste, well, gross. wanna check them out yourself? according to the can, they are made exclusively for target.
i finished up another scarf, finally the ruffles from scarf style makes it's debut.
i used knitpicks andean silk in black. i think about 4 skeins or so. it is a little on the heavy side, so we'll have to see how much wear it really gets. and i don't like the ends with that weird split so i may sew that up.
i am working on finishing up the second broadripple sock so pretty soon it will be time to cast on whole new projects!! yeah!
oh yeah, i went and bought the rowan mag today. i didn't look at it in the store, thinking i had seen a few projects from it online that i liked. wrong. yuck, i hate this issue. HATE. bleck. i will be listing it on ebay shortly to see if i can get rid of it.
i finally made it down to fran's chocolates to pick up some salty caramels for a fellow blogger who i am doing a chocolate swap with. they will be mailed off very soon because otherwise i will eat them. seriously.
off to watch the emmys and stare at the loads of crap i should be packing and am avoiding even though i could be getting the keys two weeks from tomorrow. oh yes, you heard that right, 2 WEEKS! i am freakin excited.

I picked up the candy corn and carmel apple sodas today at Target. LOL. The candy corn is overly sweet but smells nice. I was glad they were tiny cans. Your ruffles scarf is beautiful.
My kiddos would go nuts for the soda.
Your scarf looks great. I think the Ruffles scarf is such an interesting pattern.

Your scarf is beautiful. I really need to buy that book....most of the patterns I've seen are just beautiful.
I'm so excited for you! I can't wait to see pictures of your new place!
The soda may taste gross, but those cans are great!
your ruffles looks lovely and makes me want cold weather NOW. and salty caramels sound delicious. i love the sweet and salty. and i love halloween candy. weee!
YAY! Congratulations on the condo. I'm very jealous of your first place buying-ness. After i heard what the mean price for homes/condo's in King County is right now, i almost choked. BUT STILL...fun, fun, fun for you & your new independence.
Congrats on the new abode!
Also, I got the Jones Sodas a little while ago and was waiting to drink the Candy Corn until somebody else wrote about them... somehow it just sounds entirely too sugary, but I guess now I can try it :)
I am a sucker for that kind of stuff too- did you try the Holiday Spice Pepsi last year?
I'm so excited for you with the closing! Can't wait to see pics and how you decorate, I know it's going to be fab.
Both scarves look great -- and I think vodka is an excellent backdrop. Lots of luck with the condo situation!
Amy, you've motivated me to start Ruffles again! I WILL complete it! I WILL complete it! No frogging!
Also...chocolate swap...that sounds too good to be true! I think you should start and official SWAP! I'm all in!
And your condo is looking good! Good luck on the move!! ;)
I'm having a sugar attack just thinking about candy corn soda. I'd be curious though.
Sick. Love candy corn. Love caramel apples. Love soda. Together? (barf)
I love holiday related items and have been know to buy an item or two because of too cute packaging. Last year I tried a pumpkin flavored ale, which was pretty good, except I could only drink one out of the six pack before I got tired of the taste.
