Secret Pal Questions of the Week

Well I've not been answering these when they've been coming up as I have kept forgetting to look at the blog. I guess its more because round 11 switched over to Ravelry and it wasn't updated that I've let it slip more than any intentional so here are the questions and my answers. Not sure whether they'll be any good for my upstream SP but here goes nothing:

Question 1: What is your favourite summertime drink?

My taste is drinks never vary. I'll drink both hot and colds drinks in summer and winter alike so coffee and pop here.

Question 2: As a kid, what did you look forward to most about summer vacation/break/holiday?
The long break from school lol I can only ever remember us going away for summer holidays coincided with the Olympics (not for going to see the Olympics either lol)

Question 3: What would you consider the perfect amount of stash?
So whatever I needed for a project was in my stash and in the colours that I needed.

Question 4:
1) What yarn (that you don’t have/haven’t used) would make your stash “complete”?
I have no idea and if I knew I would have bought it by now ;-)

2) What yarn do you never want to be without?
Plain yarn by which I mean the non-fur/non-fluff varieties. Much more enjoyable to use :)

Question 5:
1) Where is your favorite place to go for vacation/holiday?
When I was a child 99% of my holidays were spent on the Isle of Wight. As an adult I rarely go away on holiday so guess the childhood one would have to be the answer here!

2) Where is one place you’d like to go?
I'm going to have to plump for two here - Disneyland and Disneyworld but only if I could take three people with me ;-)

Question 6: What is your favourite type of project to take along on holiday/vacation?
Any time I do go away from home I am always up and doing things so something plain that I wouldn't have to think about and there wouldn't be problems if I went wrong and had to frog.

Question 7: What is(are) your favorite place(s) to knit? and What supplies (besides yarn & needles) make the setting perfect for knitting?

In my hands as I've yet to learn to knit with my feet teehee. Coffee and biscuits ooo and cake :)

New Arrival

Well MonsterMog arrived safely home today. It was his first time in a carry case and let's just say it is not an experience I want to repeat again in a hurry! No sooner than I had taken him out than he settled down and he was most vocal about expressing his dissatisfaction about going back in!

When he arrived home a certain person was in bed but I guess the meowing woke him up. I then got asked "who's that?" promptly followed by "awwww" so the grumble moan groan grumble I guessed was going to happen didn't !

Here's pictured here with his "I've been travelling all day so I'm tired!" look.

Birthdays

Just dont seem as fun as they used to when you were young. Cake, balloons, parties, cake, presents, did I mention cake?

A proper update blog post will come next week when I get back from the family with "presents"

1

Well July has flown by so far. My crafting mojo isnt around much for obvious reasons. MM's birthday came and went yesterday. The one good thing about it is that I can prod and poke him about the fact that MM is ten years older than me now :)

Monster Mog

Here he is aged 3 1/2 weeks looking sweet and I've a feeling he's going to be quite a bruiser!
