It is a gray and rainy day. To further bring on the blahs, my laptop has an as-yet-diagnosed problem! collective wail!. One of the dogs knocked it off of the coffee table and now it makes a wierd little humming sound. Also a small spark sets off anytime I put the adaptor into the back of it! it seems serious to me — Boar is going to check it out tonight.

What does this mean for you, Dear Reader?

It seems that I am not an intrepid blogger — if I can’t surf the internet with my arse in a comfy chair, well then – we are both out of luck! The chair in front of the office computer is a hard wooden one – something a Puritan would sit and blog in.

I will tell you that I went to AC Moore last night and partook of the 25% Off Feast. I got enough of this to make a pullover for myself! It is a Sirdar Yarn and I chose the colorway called Plum Marble. With all this rain, I am itching to start right in on it — but I have remembered my Vest Vow.

Although my behind is going numb from this chair, I have still attended to your quiz needs:

A lovely Easter. I hosted an Easter Brunch, and it was a success (if I do say so myself)! Shall I regale you with the menu?

Beverages:
coffee
chai tea
orange juice
bloody mary’s
breakfast lemonade punch with champagne
Entree:
Spiral sliced Ham
Croissant
Cheesy Breakfast Casserole
Three Onion and Potato Casserole
Almond Cinnamon Toast Featherbed
Roasted Asparagus
Fruit Salad
Dessert:
Lemon Pound Cake with Strawberries and Fresh Whipped Cream

Most of the recipes came from the book A Real American Breakfast by Jamison & Jamison. It is a wonderful cookbook — full of great recipes and interesting bits of history!

Did not get too much knitting done over the weekend. The Vest has a turned hem, and I did manage to get that turned under and stitched. Saturday evening I planned to pick up ye old needles. My pal C. came over for some knitting and movie watching — she needed lots of help with her project (her first pair of socks), so not only did I not get any knitting done, but we didn’t even watch the movie. It was all worth it though for the amount of laughing we did!

Tonight, I am going to a new craft store, AC Moore. I have heard that they have a wonderful yarn selection and it is 25% off!!! Thanks to KatyKnits for the heads up!
