shhhhhhhh
quilt in progress.
stuff on paper.
A stack of fabric.
how haiku-like.
apparently I chose a moment to upgrade this site just as WordPress itself is being upgrade. That combined with a little rustiness to cause some not so good result. However – backup has this back with a few losses tht I’ll deal with another time – categories etc. sorry!
it was a toss up for a title: “things worth reading” or “things that make you go hmmmmmm or Oh!”
But regardless, you’ll probably enjoy these two offerings from the nytimes site. And while I have you, I applaud the NYT’s decision to discontinue their for-pay-for-some-articles service based on things like advertising revenue and traffic tracking from search engines. Wow – good decisions based on real info, whatta concept!
First up: happy birthday :-)
Have lunch with Alice Waters and find out why we need to think about our food.
It’s been quite a year, and I’m still out there (some would say I’m really out there but what does it matter if you’re having a good time?
But happy birthday to me, and thanks to everyone who made it all possible!
In other news – still kicking around in Azeroth. I have a new mid-level alt, Magesty and my original toon is coming along too, she’s now officially halfway to 70. My main, QuiltMage just finished leveling her last profession! Woot! I switched her to tailoring a couple weeks ago and spent about a week getting her into the 300′s level-wise and it’s been a slow grind with endless farming for materials to get her to the end.
Why do this? Because you can get good gear like this, but you can only make it yourself. So it will hold me until I can get quest/drop stuff. But tonight I plan on making this robe, one way or another!
Next up, this! (why taking so long? only get two of the pieces of fabric, every four days…. Good thing real life fabric doesn’t work that way!
