The weekend was over far too quickly, which seems to be a theme in the blog world. Of course, losing an hour did not help. But, it was packed full of good things here at Casa del Katknits…
Things like Friday Happy Hour, which was extra good since Steve made wings.
And, martini’s, of course.
And, there was spinning, or more specifically – plying this gorgeous Dorset Down roving from Sheepspot.
There was knitting and the short rows are getting longer and I am closer to binding off! Which is good because Easter…
There was also lots and lots of basketball, which facilitated the knitting and spinning. Which brings me to Monday Madness and getting my brackets set, and trying to get my internal clock reset.
Pass the coffee, please.

Some months ago, we picked up a bottle of
Wigle Hopped Whiskey, I liked it a lot. Steve liked it, but not as much as I did. Well – paired with
Quince & Apple’s Rhubarb Hops syrup it made a wicked Hopped Manhattan. And, Steve liked it just as much as I did! The mild sweetness from the Rhubarb pairs nicely with the slightly bitter hops. If you are a beer lover, this is the Manhattan for you!
Happy Weekend, Gentle Reader, let’s get it started on the right foot!
