I'm planning on switch blogs. Soon. I actually started one on
Vox just for fun which I'll probably use for posts from my vacation in Portugal (next Wednesday--yay!) My plan is to post,
but who knows if I will have time or computer access.
BunnyFest in Old Town. We we're good--only bought a baseball cap and some hay.
Check out this fluffy bun who was part of the
clicker training demonstration which is something I'd like to try with Luna. I like working with animals and Luna likes to get into
trouble so this would be a good way to channel her energy :) The buns were running back and forth over an obstacle course
with hurdles that were getting progressively higher:
Meanwhile, I haven't been up to too much. Obsessing about food and things French after having read
French Women Don't Get Fat. It's all about eating good food in reasonable amounts. It's also all about an attitude change which is the tricky

On that note, I tried a fun recipe last night. Fun, because it involves blanching romaine lettuce leaves and wrapping
them around fresh mozzarella and grilling the package.
Also, of a similar nature, I found this
Wine, Chocolate and Cheese diet by Marie Claire which has some really delicious looking lunch ideas. Eating well at lunch is one of my biggest
problems.

On the knitting end, I'm still working away on the straps of the Roundabout Leaf Tank. And I won't even be done
while it's still summer :( I also started Orangina but it will definitely be put on hold soon so I can work on wooly
things. I've also been swatching for the Backyard Leaves scarf from Scarf Style with some Elsebeth Lavold Angora
yarn.
I want an excuse to buy this yarn from Elann in the Lichen colorway:
Peruvian Sierra Aran. Ooohhh...I just found one! Check out ChickKnits
Ariann. I have a ton of stuff that I want to start working like this beautiful but seemingly complicated
Weekend Pullover from the
Fall Interweave Knits. I also like this gray sweater from the Fall Vogue Knitting:
