Knitting Update

I finished a sweater this weekend.
Honesty from the Rowan book A Yorkshire Fable.
This is destined for a lovely woman who goes to my church.
We had an auction at the end of Spring to benefit the church and the choir and she won my labor to make a sweater.
With the exception of my school-clothes-making frenzy I have been working on this steadily since the 2nd of August, according to my Ravelry notebook, and it is finally finished.
It has been officially fall for a week now and the weather is cooperating today with chilly, windy weather. Perfect sweater weather, I must say.
I guess I got this sweater finished just in time.

Lame

Sorry web folks, I lamed out on color week. I didn't have any photos of anything plum-colored in my archives and I think my camera needs to see the doctor so no new photos either.

Thanks for all the nice comments about the cookies, the recipe for the cookies is from here (with non-dairy substitutes) and I used the filling recipe from the chocolate whoopie pies that I made the other day which is 3/4 cup each of butter (I used vegan buttery sticks), marshmallow creme and powdered sugar with a tsp of vanilla.

The pumpkin cookies are also quite tasty on their own or with the glaze in the recipe.

Have a great weekend!

Chestnut Brown

The battery in my camera is dead, so here are some more from the files.
Tomorrow is Plum (I may have some trouble with this one...)

Somebody Stop Me

In an effort to use up some leftovers this afternoon, I made some pumpkin whoopie pies.
They were really tasty, but too easy to just keep popping one more...
I had to pack up the bulk of them and take them out of my mouth, I mean house.

O.K. New Rule -
No more marshmallow cream in the house.

Tomorrow Chestnut Brown

Burnt Sienna

In looking through my archived pictures today I found these examples of burnt sienna.
A baby orangutan and donuts.
Tomorrow is Goldenrod.

Fall Color Week

Meg at Elsie Marley is hosting a color week this week and today is brick red.

I have been working on this piece for some time, and some parts still kick my butt (pianistically speaking)
Tomorrow - Burnt Sienna (the theme is crayolas)
