Punkin

Look at my sweet little punkin head. This is his 8 week old photo. We pick Enzo up tomorrow. We're still trying to come up with a cute Italian middle name.

I'm working on a little red/white striped sweater for him for his modeling debut. His big brother is going to get one too for their family portraits. I can't wait 'til those two meet. Posted by Picasa

GigantaBunny!

Posted by Picasa "Rabbit" Artesina, Italy 2005
This giant knitted bunny was debuted last year and there has been much promo about it. I think it's hysterical and amazing. I'm actually going to be in this area in June...I am desparate to get to go see it...can't wait.

Borrowed text from the artist's website, (more photos there): The things one finds wandering in a landscape: familiar things and utterly unknown, like a flower one has never seen before, or, as Columbus discovered, an inexplicable continent; and then, behind a hill, as if knitted by giant grandmothers, lies this vast rabbit, to make you feel as small as a daisy. The toilet-paper-pink creature lies on its back. a rabbit-mountain like Gulliver in Lilliput. Happy you feel as you climb up along its ears, almost falling into its cavernous mouth, to the belly-summit and look out over the pink woolen landscape of the rabbits body, a country dropped from the sky; ears and limbs sneaking into the distance; from its side flowing heart, liver and intestines.After almost 5 years of knitting the rabbit found its final place in the Italian Alps. You might even take your time or check back every now and then as the rabbit will wait for you 20 years from now on.

Another Quizzy Poo

What kind of shoe am I??? Well of course I'm a hot heeled leather boot...gorgeous. I want every single pair of those. But, I'm cut-off...no more shoes or handbags forever. And, I have to agree with my husband...I do have to many and do not NEED anymore. It doesn't mean I can't want or put on my wish list for special occassions.

I've been in jury duty this week...whoo hoo. Got out early today so back at work...doesn't look like I'm working yet huh? Get to be on a jury in the morning...should be interesting. I'm getting lots of knitting and reading done though.
