Amazing how fast one person can empty the jar. In fact, anything peanut butter flavored will be gone almost as soon as it's put in the cupboard. <br /><br />My lure is crunchy snacks mmm - crisps). And my taste buds disagree with those who claim carrots are a suitable substitute. I eat them, yes, as a healthy alternative. But I've never been tempted to eat a whole bag of them at one sitting. I don't keep them in the house, either. Too much temptation.stash haushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10244605573080920528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-55282160699769069372009-11-28T20:13:30.262+00:002009-11-28T20:13:30.262+00:00That ASJ is looking lovely.

It was one of those self patterning yarns and the patten was completely lost of course but it still looks very interesting...and the recipient likes it which, I suppose, is all that matters!catdownunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06959328192182156574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-87859626887624107312009-11-28T16:24:06.161+00:002009-11-28T16:24:06.161+00:00The husband of a colleague of mine is an accomplis...The husband of a colleague of mine is an accomplished home brewer... while I don't have much a taste for beer, my philosopher friend and I went to watch the brewing process (fascinating!) Anyway, while the philosopher sampled a variety of the darker home brews (being Swiss-German and all) I tried out the home-brewed cider.... it was fantastic (like you, Jean I prefer the cider). Apparently home-brewed cider is not hard to make- the brewer said he would show me how once I move into my own house and have some space the do it...Angelhttp://knittingangel.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-84148346685899087622009-11-28T15:25:15.229+00:002009-11-28T15:25:15.229+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-74072926495757521382009-11-28T14:35:34.387+00:002009-11-28T14:35:34.387+00:00The colors in that ASK are really wonderful.
