Made of Sugar and Spice

Yeah! Baby Noor is doing well. One benefit of the war.

Yesterday morning, I saw a nummy looking curry recipe on livejournal. I was restless today, and decided to make it. I had everything except fresh ginger and an apple. So after a bit of shopping, I started cooking. Pictures up soon. Jorge's comment was - *cough* that looks like something Tom would cook *cough*. Giggle.

Being Productively Lazy

Decided to get outside while the weather was half nice (high 50s), and walked a short hike near Clinton Lake. It was nice. With few animals and plants around, I focused on listening to the birds. I got a couple of shots of a neatly decaying hedge apple.

Then found Drop Dead Gorgeous for cheap at Hastings. I've been watching silly movies and knitting. I'm up to about 2 inches long of a scarf. So I have a question to all my knitting readers ( andsometimes_ and missdoom, I'm looking at you), why do I keep getting one more stitch each row I add? I don't need a trapezoidal scarf.

Edit: I think I figured it out. Miscounted.
