Everybody's a Weiner
In Tuesday's Caption Contest, after much dachshund deliberation, we are pleased to announce, after checking our stash, that everybody is a winner! Sock Yarn prizes for everybody! Send yer snail mail addresses immediately! Special notice and Grand Prize Winner awards go to Susan ("Della says, just because Valentine's is over doesn't mean you can't give your loved ones some tongue.") and Cari ("What's this weird taste? Why does my right upper lip taste different than my left upper lip? Wait. Lemme try it again. Nope, still different... oh... squirrel in the yard? Food bowl? Belly scratch? Wait, my lip. It tastes funny. What's this weird taste? Why does my right upper lip taste different than..."), both of whom will receive something Grander than Sock Yarn when they send me their mailing addresses. Thanks for making me smile, all of you!
Clarification: Everyone who ENTERED wins sock yarn :-)
So! What's on your agenda for today? Mikey is busy deciding whether to trample the cyclamen or the narcissii.
We hope you have a lovely Friday in store!

You May Have Already Won
The dachshund prize patrol is still on a roll; you are all so good at captions that we've decided we can hardly decide on a winner! But we're trying. Stay tuned!
Some knitting eye-candy that we missed somehow; maybe you did too. Marsha has a new book listed, Knitting with a Smile, with 30+ original and modernized stranded knitting designs. And, we're mightily intrigued by Dejavu Knits, especially that Sanquahar Sampler and the Peruvian Chullo (follow link; scroll to the bottom).
Della would like to know what's so funny....
Happy Wednesday, you clever knitters!
Oh! P.S. Meg Swansen speaks!!! Scroll down for audio file!!

Last refuge of bloggers
A caption contest:
Since we've got nuttin' here, we'll let you make with the clever talk. The caption I like best wins a nice prize specially selected from my overflowing stash. Actually, since my stash is still pretty much packed up, you'll probably win a 100 g ball of sock yarn. My choice of color. Also my choice if I decide to send a ball of Eros or something else. In fact, everything about this contest is my choice except whether or not you participate :-)
Happy Tuesday, all. We're very busy here, but thinking of you.
