Before I start posting updates, let me post this pix that I promised last Xmas. Never got around to post it on my blog due to busy-ness around here. They’re my Jenkins mini boat shuttles in Figured Maple and Oregon Myrtle, the top most is my low profiled Bluster Bay by Terry. Enjoy you fiber fans of Edward and Wanda Jenkin’s exquisite woodworking, (NAYY!)

So here, my insomniac spinning saga continues… some Superwash Corriedale and California Red wool

No photos of Chinese New Year in action although we did go for our traditional CNY dinner, eat noodles of longevity and get to see the lion and dragon dance. It’s the Year of the Golden Pig so it is a lucky year to bear offsprings now…go go go make some babies, it is supposed to bring you bountiful of health and wealth! Meanwhile these are the Kasugai Japanese gummy goodies I had over CNY. I love them they’re just so juicy and yummy especially on Chinese New Year.

President’s Day was spent at the Fabric Store to peruse new designs. I wanted to sew some things for myself and the girls. It’s been a really long time, really since I touched my sewing machine. Dear hubby made me sleep the whole weekend because I have been working too hard at work and on top of that he’s so concerned about my insomnia albeit being tired…something’s keeping me awake all the time. On President’s Day we went to Cafe Adobe and got some yumm Mexican food. I had a Taco Salad and he had Seafood Enchiladas, sorry no photo of the food – I was too hungry to take any but here’s some photos of the girls. Nadya Anne across the table and as you can see Dave reveling in the tortilla chips and dip!

Nadya decides she wants to smile and asked me to snap another photo.

The girls had lots of rice, and some meat off our plates, as you can see Petra is real happy with her meal.

So cute …she’s just learning to eat rice with her fork.

Then off we were to the park. That’s Dave and Petra Ava

I love this shot the most; she’s too sweet…

Dave, multitasking swinging Nadya and carrying Petra on the back

She later got tired of it and wanted to be on the big sister swing, there she looks quite nervous as Nadya attempts to help her.

Yay, I did it she says …still in baby language as Nadya watches from afar

Nadya and her new found friend. It was a hard time to let go.

Wow! It’s been quite a long while since I seriously post any fibery news on my blog, but hey life especially on the work front has been crazy as usual. However on the fiber front it’s been spinning long nights and early mornings. Thanks to my bouts of insomnia lately. Just finished another gigantic bobbin full on my production wheel. It is a lovely superwash corriedale in a lovely hand dyed berry colorway.

So, what did everyone get for Valentines? This lovely bouquet came over our house eve of Valentines Day. So sweet! Of course it is from none other than the love of my life.

valentine2.jpg

It came in this super chic super mod red box delivered by the DHL man. Got to love him as well… took such great care of the box.
