breakfast and yarn.

*bloglines doesn't seem to be picking up feeds, i don't think it is just mine, but maybe a blogger issue? either way it is annoying!

over the weekend i made a batch of rice pudding. i used 1% milk and it turned out really good (ok, doesn't hurt that I drizzle condensed milk and toasted almonds over the top). this morning i had it for breakfast while taking pics of my new yarn.


more trekking? me? what? trekking 101 purchased on camano island a few weeks back. you know that this will end up on the needles sooner that it should. i can't resist. it will be my 4th pair i think (for a pic of me in my paris trekking socks friday night, head over to naomi's blog - mine are the top left, pinks, greens ).


have you heard of the duets sock yarn from a swell yarn shop yet? i can't believe i managed to get my hands on some. and my first colorway choice too (army girl)!

I have Army Girl, too. It's a great colorway.

I love A Swell Yarn Shop!!
I bought some yarn for a SP exchange there, it was gorgeous! I keep stalking it, but mostly sold out when I get there. Wahhh!!

I had bought a few weeks back the Lemonade Stand colorway (I finished the socks yesterday - on my blog) and bought 2 weeks ago the Army Girl and Merlot colorways. I really enjoyed knitting with the yarn, makes some nice socks.

I loves me some rice pudding - and yes, it is totally acceptable to have it for breakfast :). I've used my Joy of Cooking recipe for years (with 1% too) and sometimes jazz it up with coconut milk and fruit and nuts. I haven't tried the condensed milk, though... mmmmm....

Not sure how I managed to MISS the fact that you also shop at A Swell Yarn Shop! Aren't Angela's yarns super fun?! I have Army Girl.. I managed to sneak that one in on my second purchase. I just finished my Chocolate Fantasy socks last night.. am wearing them as I type. Posted on my blog today about them.
SIDE NOTE: Mind if I add your blog to my list of Blog Crossings?
