Socks and honey

IMG_5219Slowly, but surely, with little minutes here and there.  The gussets are nearly done.  I think I’m a slow knitter because it takes me 18-20 hours to do a pair of socks -time dependent on how much cuff and how many stitches I drop and have to pick up and how many times I have to lay the project down and pick it up again.

No photo, but I spent an hour in the dentist chair this afternoon having 2 small cavities filled.

On the way there, I stopped and bought 2 gallons of honey from a friend who has many hives of bees and has them at various people’s farms.   I learned that our hardware store now sells food grade buckets for food.  And guess what,  their logo gets spread around.  DH believes that everything one sells should have something to help sales.   This qualifies.

The last thing to purchase was a storm door for the hoop house which will be recovered this weekend.
