- Tonight, I made this for dinner. (And broccoli. Man doth not live by macaroni alone.) It is maybe the best macaroni and cheese I have ever eaten and so I recommend the recipe to all of you. (Notes: I made twice the amount of pasta that the recipe calls for because the box was a pound and hell, I made the box. However, the sauce covered the amount of pasta I had completely to my satisfaction. But, if you like more sauce on your pasta, you may want to only make half a pound.)
- I have finished my green lacy socks! They are beautiful and I'm quite pleased with them. And now I get to start a new pair - I'm going to make these with this absolutely gorgeous yarn my mom bought me. It's a subtly variegated black, with shadings of red and purple and green and, mostly, looks like iridescent crow feathers. I'm terribly excited about it.
- I am nearly caught up on Haven (I have one episode left and then I will have watched all the Haven there is till Friday). One on hand, I am happy to have watched it. On the other hand, now I am out of knitting tv. Can you recommend me some new knitting tv? Preferably something not too heavy and definitely something that does require me to pay a lot of visual attention to the screen (so anything with subtitles is out, alas). Anyone?
