Saturday Sky and Tomatoes

I spotted this view from the 12th floor west windows of the Houston Cole Library last Sunday. My first thought was, "Man, I wish I had my camera." Wait, then I remembered my cell phone was in my pocket.

Today, I have done a little bit on the entrelac scarf I started long ago. It still looks pretty much the same. So instead of knitting, a photo essay on tomatoes. I picked tomatoes and made two batches of tomato sauce that came out kinda orange. I wonder why. LOL.

Tangerine Mama plum tomatoes

Sungold and Yellow Pear

A heavy little basket of basil and tomatoes. Cookie stays away from basil, guess it repels puppies as well as Japanese beetles.

There are red Romas. The green is a basil leaf.

A photo of bruschetta in the new Herb Companion magazine led to breaking out the bread machine and making dough for these. I never got to the bruschetta, just ate hot bread. I pigged out on whole wheat angelhair pasta with pesto and tomatoes.

Not Much Knitting

Not too much going on here in the way of knitting. I got my March issue of Information Technology and Libraries  in the mail today.

March 2007, page 23.. "Checking Out Facebook.com: the Impact of a Digital Trend on Academic Libraries. " By Laurie Charnigo and Paula Barnett-Ellis.

More Holiday Ambitions

Well maybe for next year... I fell in love with the Aran Christmas Tree Skirt. The latest edition addition to my knitting library. I am having fun using the different settings on my little baby Nikon, the L4. There are a lot of cute things in the book. My knitting has been sidelined by another bout of sinusitis/bronchitis. But I got some done on Twist's sleeve at the doctor and drugstore. I told the mother to be to wash the star hat again  Even she has a cold.  Chocolate does not even appeal to me.
