Pumkin (18+ pounds). Rustic Arrow Sock done.

This afternoon, Mom harvests a hugh pumkin (18+pounds) from the Martinez Community Garden. We also got some tomato, basil. That makes great lunch with fresh vegetables. We also have few green bean for dinner. Mom made some stuff pepers, eggplants...nice dishes.

I finished my Mistery Sock yesterday. I used 2 skeins of Purple Woolease and it turns out they are different lots and it has different tone. The left on on the picture has a deeper purple. I have 45 gm left on each skein, so I am making another pair. Each Skein was 85gm and hope it is enough for 2 pairs. I enjoy making them. It's a CO of 48 stitches and the pattern is easy to remember with knits for all odd rows.

Mistery Sock in progress....


My mistery sock (Rustic Arrow) is half done or at least the complicate part is over!!

I am working on the sweater and didn't have time for pictur today. I went to Monday night knitting group, few of us have a good time. I brought over my latest knitting book to the group; Lori took 2 and Bennie took the rest. They love baby knitting books.

Today is 911 five year mark. I always feel lucky that I have move to CA since 93. My thoughs go thru the image and how was there at the 93 bloming. Working down 68 floors and that was such a bad memories. After all these years, missing the WTC is very sad. It was the place I work and knew every store to shop, eat and got out the subway sense. When I went back in 2003, everythings has changes; no 7WTC which was another building with Salomon Brother's office building. I haven't been in touch with friends in NYC. I should call more often. Keep in touch more often. I miss lots of good time and all the year I spent there.
