Food related, sort of. And knitting, too.

Food related, sort of. And knitting, too. Granddaughter, Samantha, has received her Associate of Science in Pastry Arts, magna cum laud from Johnson and Wales, Providence, RI. She is continuing on studying food service management and accounting. Sami left HS at the end of her junior year to enter J&W. She completed her HS requirements at J&W and went back to graduate with her HS class. We are all very proud of her accomplishments. Finished knitting the Lois sweater jacket last night. It joins two others in the sew-it-together line. Am putting together the classic 24/7 jacket so that I can wear it at the knitting retreat in Fredricksburg, VA this coming weekend. Knitting, shopping, wine and new restaurants, what can be bad about that! I will be so disappointed if the waitstaff asks: "How are you guys doing?" Arrrgh! I don't expect him/her to ask what I want to drink before I sit down, another biggie here in our Southern Maryland Paradise. After all, we will be in VA. I've started boot toppers in NYU colors for granddaughter, Sarah. If winter doesn't get here soon she won't need them until next year. It was in the low 60s here today, the grass is greening up and it isnt even Feb yet! Ospreys will be here soon. Found pork chops on the bone, amazing. Guess it is not cost effective to ship bones, generations to come will not know what they are missing as fewer and fewer cuts of meat come on the bone.
