That's Some Bouquet!

This arrived for me today:

Pretty awesome, huh? PLEASE stop by and help me eat all this fruit! It's from my office and is quite overwhelming. Almost too beautiful to eat.

Not much going on with the recovery and all. Today was the first time I ventured out on my own and drove. It did feel a little weird, despite only being two weeks since I last drove.

I've got so many knitting projects I want to work on. The latest is a new technique I taught myself called "entrelac". Basically, this project started at the bottom right corner going left with triangles and then the second tier of blocks was added moving right. The third tier is added going left and you can see how the yarn color changes as you go along. Pretty cool, huh?



I also did a little shopping, even though I'm really trying to keep this to a minimum:

Last week, John was fiddling with adding channels to our DirectTV and stopped on QVC. They happened to be selling craft stuff for scrapbooking and such and one of the deals was for this cardstock. 160 sheets for $27.00. Usually, this stuff sells for 99 cents a sheet! I couldn't pass up this bargain, so I ordered it.

Being home recovering from surgery has also allowed me to get back to cooking dinner. When we were down at Breton Bay last weekend, I got some crabs for my folks and got some extra for me too. Susan, Ron and Karen came over and we had a nice time catching up and eating crabs. Tehre were lots of leftovers and I spent Monday afternoon picking them to make a Thai style crab fried rice for me and a crabcake for John:

OK... so don't forget to stop by and help me eat some of that fruit bouquet and THANKS to everyone at the office who sent it!
