Ugh I want it to rain so bad here! It rained on Friday, but now it is supposed to be back up in the 80s :(

When you commented that you had Persian food last night, that's all I could think about. I can't wait to see the recipe!

And hooray for skype! Love Marissa!

I'm adding 'Little Bee' to my list. Right now I'm getting into J.K.Rowling's new book. She has quite a mouth on her, that Harry Potter author. ;)

Also--thanks for the store love! Hope you're enjoying your knits & knots!! Stay warm in the windy city!
