The "I'm not posting"-post

Well, I wanted to sit down this afternoon and write another catch-up post. But I can't find my camera, my sewing machine is broken and I found my current knitting project in the dirty-laundry pile this morning. (I desperately need to knit up a hat for Elizabeth. It's really getting ridiculous. The newborn cotton knit hat just isn't cutting it in November. Any hat-makers for hire out there?)

And what I really want to do right now is toss another log on the stove, sit down with a cup of tea and catch up with all of you. I see the number 617 glaring at me in my feed reader--(I've switched to a new one, by the way--NetNewsWire. I really like it!) I miss reading your blogs. They bring me so much inspiration and sweetness and peace. So forgive the no post-post, but I'd rather hear what you have to say today.

In the meantime, thank you so much for all your etsy suggestions. I've written another handmade holidays feature and there will  be plenty more thanks to all of you.

And I'd love it if you'd check out my latest post. I think many of you will get what I'm saying. (and thanks to those that left comments this week. you have no idea how good it feels to see some familiar names over at my new gig.)
