Comments

[Stitchy Fingers]

Hi
I've meant to say how much I enjoyed your essay on Cast On and how funny I felt being able to say the Brownie promise and pledge along with you after all of these years. Then yesterday I noticed that you were commenting on Scarborough Dude and it reminded me that I hadn't come here.

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment -- it's great for me to know what's appealing to listeners, and it's always a good feeling to hear from folks.

I know what you mean about the promise and pledge -- I felt as if I'd dropped down a time hole when I picked the handbook from the library.

It's amazing how these things stick with us, and pop up when we least expect it.

[Maryjo]

oh dear -- the links to such delicious items. And the colors! Want, want, want! Maryjo more on Ravelry and your group!

[katherine]

Hey, Maryjo, thanks for stopping by!

Yes, I'm such a magpie when it comes to colour -- both sweaters are just so cheerful.

I really enjoyed the music on this podcast "episode" It has been years since I listened to the rock song "Valhalla". Thanks for refreshing fond high school memories.

[katherine]

Thanks, Heaven7 -- yeah, I was so tickled when the LedZep cover turned up and was actually podsafe. And I'm with you -- Stairway to Heaven still conjures up images from high school dance for me!
