Caramel Swirl

I did finish the socks....last weekend. I meant to post a picture earlier than today. I also started on a new pair of socks for my sweetie, but he's out of town with his camera so I don't have a picture yet. I can tell you that the yarn is from twisted, a shop on etsy, and this is the yarn I'm using. It's gorgeous! Unfortunately, as some men do, my man has some big feet...so while I cast on 80 sts on size 1's for myself, I cast of 104 (I think) on size 1's for him. It's going to take a lot of determination on my part to get these things finished! At least I have a few months before it's cold enough to wear wool socks.

Fruits of Labor

Well, vegetables anyway:

This was the first radish I decided to pick....the second one was much prettier, but I ate before it got anywhere close to the camera. They were both really good and spicy! The radishes were the only thing that I could eat...got tomatoes growing and squash, and I cannot believe how many hot banana peppers and jalapenos I have growing!

My Garden


My Garden, originally uploaded by Synknits.

I've always wanted a garden...and now I actually have one! It's been exciting, even though we bought most of the plants as plants and only planted a few things as seeds. We've only had two tomato plants take a dive (one is still holding on) and one squash plant(trampled by a dog). But all were replaced and I'm having a great time watching everything grow.
