 Tonight was my night to answer the phones at a fundraiser.  It wasn’t bad (for those of you who heard me whining about having to go) … a friend of mine came to keep me company.  I knit through part of it until the phones started ringing.  I had planned to do a different heel, but I cannot knit mindlessly while learning a new thing, so I just reverted to the old standby eye-of-the-partridge heel, which I do like.  This sock is moving along quickly for the little time I’ve spent on it.

While hanging out tonight, though, my friend reminded me of the little surprise birthday party we put on for a friend of ours.  I think we are running out of ways to actually surprise her but we always bring her a tea party to her gift shop.  We bring it all…tea, tea pot, cups, table cloth, the works. 

The big question tonight was what to get her.  I volunteered to make a linen face cloth but given my track record lately, it may be challenging to actually get it *finished*!  Now that I have offered, though…it’s what we’re going on to build the rest of the event.  It’s always challenging since she has the one cool gift shop in town…but somehow we always manage to come through with something we’re satisfied with.

Soooo….tomorrow I pick up a new project!  eeek!
