Happy Anniversary!

Today is my dh and my 9th anniversary!  It is hard to believe that 9 years has gone by already.  He picked out a Citizen watch that I gave to him and he let me choose this:

 

It is wonderful – grinds the beans, tamps the shot, pours the shot, dumps the grounds into an easy to empty cup.  This one is much more deluxe than the Saeco I had for 4.5 years before this one – it has a bypass doser and it has an electronic clock with auto on and off.  Very quiet too. 

I’ve been busy busy busy working on crocheted dishcloths for my etsy store:

The white dishcloths definitely don’t photograph well – the yarn is the same weight as the colored yarn, but when photographed with a flash, they look less substantial than they are.  I’ve had a few requests for all-white cloths – even a couple of sets special-ordered – because you can bleach them.  I just wish that they photographed better. 

I’m going to work part-time for the school district here next year, so I’m off to get my TB test read!
