Can a sweater get impatient for buttons? Soon, my little buttonless friend. Soon.
I'm working on a "Things I like" list as suggested (ages ago) by Carrie. She's probably thought I have forgotten by now.
So.
Things I like!

It was so great to meet you last night, Sandy! I hope you'll come again - maybe bring the Anemoi Mittens? I'm dying to see a pair in person!

At last the beautiful green sweater has buttons! Soon the perfect sweater will be blocked and buttoned! So nice to have you at Knit Night.

I love Pachelbel's Canon in D also. Sigh.

And You, too.

You know how to enjoy life, my girl. Even the little things. And that makes you special.

Drat, I forgot to pick up baby carrots....

Great list! It made me smile.

I have made a similar (mine includes historical info too) list/page called "MORE About Me" on my blog. It's a work in progress and LONG but was fun to do.

Thank you for sharing yours!

Great list! I have to give credit to BigAlice,though, she did it first. (I just hassled everyone else to play.)
YAY new sweater!
And inre: Pachelbel, if you haven't heard this, check it out. It's hilarious. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdxkVQy7QLM
