A Little Sumo Season
Gentle Friends, you may know or not about me that I can become obsessed with some things in my life. One of these things is Sumo Citrus Season. It's a short season from about mid-January to the first of April... that these delicious oranges are around. I started stalking the produce at the two Safeways we go to and even the fruit vendor I get things from over in the Richmond District... well they came in this past week and we got some this morning... here's a snap...

A Little Start for the New Year and a Last Snap of Christmas...
Gentle Friends, I had kitted up a few projects anticipating a start once I finished up the SAL and my Christmas piece...I started one of them and got a bit stitched and became less enthused with the linen with every stitch...so I frogged that sucker all out, put the linen back into stash, and couldn't come up with a replacement from the pile, so I moved on to the next piece... I'll get back to the first one, after a trip over the Bay to Needle in a Haystack for a piece of linen that will work for the piece... here's a snaperoo of the piece I did start... a sampler...
