The ones I gave Aunt Pat last June. She just phoned. I was beginning to think they would never be found, but she said the birds don’t eat as much seed in the summer so she was just getting to the bucket. Now I have to be on alert. Where will the peeps turn up next?

And this too? Where DO you find the time?
Dishcloth #3
Dishcloth #3’s pattern had a lot of yarn overs and left twists which gave me ample opportunities to drop stitches, which I did often. At one point I was short six stitches, which resulted in my counting stitches as the end of the row more often. I think the next time I knit this pattern I will use markers to delineate where the transitions are supposed to be.
Three sentence movie reviews: Comedian
If not for the inclusion of Orny Adams–a steaming bundle of neurosis and uncertainty who was painful to watch–this would have been a much better movie. I understand the dramatic contrast between the seasoned pro and the up-and-coming comic could have been an interesting one, but Adams was so unlikable that I mostly just waited for him to go away. There were some interesting and also delightful moments, like Jerry Seinfeld telling the story of the Glen Miller band tromping through a slushy Iowa field, but I’m not sure it’s worth watching the entire movie to experience them.
