A new book for me to read!

This morning as I was drinking my coffee and reading news online, one headline caught my eye...

"Sweet Valley High" Returns 10 Years Later

OMG! Really?

I blogged a long time ago about my love for '80s books - such as Sweet Valley High and the Babysitter's Club.

From what I have gathered, the book revisits the twins 10 years after the last book. There are promises of betrayal and love.

I think that once I am done with my current book, "Water for Elephants," I may have download this one to my iPad!

My Weekend

I had a very busy weekend! Between watching my son pedal his way around on his Big-Boy bike (he just learned to do it by himself last week) and fitting in a yoga workout, I am bushed!

It was a beautiful weekend! For the most part, the temperature was mild and partly sunny. My BF got a lot of yard work done and he finally cut down the ugly Spider-looking cherry tree in my front yard! (I helped a bit too.)

Also, on Friday I got my latest yarn fix from Knit Picks. Yeah...I am addicted to yarn. But I couldn't resist. I needed more happy colors in my life!

These colors remind me of Springtime!

I have some projects lined up for these colorful goodies! Can't wait! But first, I must finish my Riff Socks! (I am so close...)


Also, this came in the mail for me:

I recently discovered Debbie Stoller from an online book club that I order books from. This is the 2nd book of hers that I own. Her books (Stitch 'n Bitch) are entertaining and very informative! Plus, the patterns in her books are so creative - I can't wait to try them out. Definitely money well spent. Visit her website: http://stitchnbitch.org.

You can actually find local SnB groups on her website where you can meet other knitters in a group setting and well...bitch. I would love to look into this and start my own group (or join one)...hmmmm...

So here we are at Monday. Back at work for me. Happy Monday!
