to being done with this! Moody and Broody and Gray. All I have is a half sleeve left, and then I'll be ready to spend next week writing it up. I need to get moving, since school's out next Wednesday and after that, I'll be hard pressed to find chunks of time when the house is quiet and I can get into the writing and the math end of things.

Work, shmerk though. There's lots of time before fall! Summer's just about here, and I have a way summery item on the menu for you. Craig brought this home for me last week - an unexpected and welcome purchase, yes? Points for the boy.

Pink grapefruit vodka - not exactly the manliest booze to pick off the shelf, but hey, I shouldn't mock those who bring me gifts, no matter how open they leave themselves.
In this glass was a basic gin and tonic - grapefruit vodka and lime juice.
However, even better was a grapefruit vodka and sprite with lime and crushed up mint leaves.
-----------------
Before I get back to my sleeve, I'll leave you with a shot of my new yarn, which just arrived in the mail. I now have 1300 yards of this in the wings. It's deep purple, it has cashmere in it, and it's from The Plucky Knitter again. Mmmmm. Are you sensing a theme?
(I promise two of my fall designs are not in Plucky, but it really is great stuff!)

It's almost the same shade of purple as my front door and my kitchen cabinets, which I love. The girls have pointed out that if I make a sweater of this and stand still in either of those spots, I'll be perfectly camouflaged - like the grandmaflage socks.
I'm not so sure about that, but will give it a try when I'm done. Which won't be for a while.
