Mother's Day at My House

Yep...the Mother's Day Gift was great! We've worked out a nice little system in our house: I email Hubby a link; he saves the link in his gmail folder titled "Kim's Gift List"; he orders from this folder when an occasion approaches; my sister receives something via UPS or USPS on her doorstep; Hubby picks it up and wraps it the night before and the next morning I've got a lovely gift waiting for me at the breakfast table! He's happy to have direction with his shopping. I'm happy because I get something I'd not actually buy myself but really, really covet. But Hubby is especially happy he doesn't have to actually go into a store to shop. A win-win situation all round.

And as for the Knitter's Block. Oh my gravy! It's the bees-knees in triplicate. See the cute blue shrug in the picture?

It's been very wet since it's bath on Friday night. Drying on towels that are stacked on the washer in our dark, airless little laundry room just doesn't cut it. But now, thanks to Hubby, I'm "cooking (or should I say blocking) with gas!" In a few hours the cotton shrug is drying nicely. Wacky Auntie will not be late for this birthday present!

Mosey...honey your shrug is on it's way!

So for any other Hubbys out there: Knitter's Block...now...makes a great gift for the Knitter you love!
