I was feeling like I had nothing to show. Nothing at all for the past 4 days. Well. There are a few things, just not necessarily knitting. I still have precious little knitting time it seems. I did get a smidge done last night. Here is where I am on the sweater:

Pitiful little is done. I also don’t have the cable charts written up. I will have to do that this morning in the hopes that I make it to Knitting night at The Knitting Experience and get more done.
I wish I could say I’ve been spinning up a storm and that’s why I have nothing to show. But really I’ve only plied another hank of Cosmo and worked on some singles. Nothing at all worth showing.
I have been doing a lot with food lately though. I got Kefir Grains on Tuesday when I got this. Jennifer Moore is a fount of knowledge. Especially where foods are concerned. She passed on some Kefir grains which are happily feasting on some Rice milk right now. They are happy little guys and they are doing their job. I also have some videos to pass on. I think it was from a Peter Jennings HD special. It’s now 5 episodes on You tube.
Episode 1
Episode 2
Episode 3
Episode 4
Episode 5
All of that makes me more solid in my desire to can more foods for my family. I got this done yesterday:

I’ll be working on Marmalade, Salsa, Green Beans, Dilly Beans, Summer Squash and Zucchini in my “spare time” today. Ok, my time is a delicate balance of multi tasking. One of these days I’ll describe the crazy dance of multitasking that is my life.
And then I’ve been working on our curriculum. School starts Tuesday. I feel like we’ve hardly had a summer. Still, getting back into the regular school schedule will be nice.
Last but not least. I got the skeleton of my Mom’s website done. King’s Treasures and the Blog. Not that my Mom or Aunt have time to write much in their blog. But hopefully they’ll have some quilting goodness up soon.
I think that’s about it for me. I need to start my Marmalade so my multitasking all works in unison. I hope you have a good Holiday weekend (if you’re in the US) and I’ll be back on Tuesday with a recipe, I promise.
