A good yarn.

The Mrs. is a knitter.  I know way too much about yarn, knitting needles and casting on for a man.  But that's OK because I reap all the benefits.  Hand made wool socks.  Complete luxury.  "You mean to tell me you wear store bought socks?  Hah!"  I believe the count is up to 6 pairs.  My favorites are the red.

Another love of ours is World War 2 posters.  But not Rosie the Riveter.  A favorite of the Mrs. is the Red Cross one below.  It's been the background on her laptop for nearly a year.

We just ordered another poster to hang on our wall.  

Then an idea came from another blog.  But to make it reality it was tricky.  "Back in the day..." these kinds of posters were done by hand.  That means there is no matching font.  Thankfully, with a amateur interest in anagrams it was discovered all the ingredients were present.  So after 10 minutes in Gimp the results were this.

Now to see about getting this in poster format for one of the walls.

Panini

Great paninis last night.  Original recipe found at the Paul Deen site.  No restaurant can do better.
