knitting and a cheap room at the inn

I’ve been knitting a bit more. Still neglecting my shawl, but I have been a bit obsessed with this.

This is the start of my blanket. Just finished up the first ball of Noro today and will most likely splice the new ball in this evening. That’s a lot of garter stitch. A lot of garter. The Rav link is here.

Monday Joe and I celebrated 13 years of married life. Thirteen people! Saturday we went out to dinner (I wore white pants people!) at a new to us restaurant called Global. Great food, perfect portion sizes, and super nice staff. All that and they brought us each a glass of Prosecco on the house to help us celebrate. Totally recommend this place, especially if you like to experiment a bit with your food.

What else… oh, we booked the hotel for our trip to Savannah in a few weeks. We got a fantastic deal! Joe was perusing hotels.com and found a 48 hour special for the River Street Inn. This place was listed at $175 a night for the weekend we are going, but Joe got it for $110 a night. Score one for us! Go check out the website so you can see the luxury that will be our room at the Inn… go on, go look.

Other than that I have been wrangling the tomatoes into submission. That may be an overstatement. I think they’re winning. Seriously, I think the two plants might take over the house. I will take pictures for proof.

On that note, must go water the porch plants and get the guest bedrooms cleaned up. Cause I will actually be having guests. Well, it’s my family, but they never visit so it’s exciting.
