Being partially colorblind, whenever I see a skein of yarn that I’m pretty sure I actually see all its colors, I get excited. Wasn’t planning on buying yarn this trip, but this beautiful ‘madtosh’ at Soft Horizons in Eugene changed my mind. I’ve already picked out a pattern on Ravelry for it too.
Gouda is one of my go-to cheeses. I told a group of Automatticians that Gouda was probably my ‘desert island’ cheese because it’s good in almost every context. I normally can’t get Edam back at home, but I knew it was similar to Gouda. When I saw some in the cheese counter at Kiva grocery […]
