A Very Merry Christmas

OMG, this is the best Christmas ever!!!! In fact, it is so great that everyone should make charity donations in lieu of gifts for me next year because this can't be topped. Here are the highlights...

Books-
Domiknitrix
Knitting Rules
Craftivity
Sew Subversive

DVD's-
Office season two
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (BBC series!!!)
Delicatessen (finally!!!)

Other-
Fiskars Soft Touch Scissors
Fiskars Pinking Shears
Coffee grinder (for flax seeds and spices)
Emersion Blender
Handmade Beaded Necklace

Oh yeah, and I got the Ashford Traveler that I have been drooling over for almost two years now!!!! Yes, this is the best Christmas ever. Thank you everyone and I hope you liked your gifts as much as I loved mine.

BTW- For the curious parties I will be posting pictures of my Traveler as soon as I finish assembling and applying the finish.

Wowza, nice haul. You know we expect book reviews, right? ;)

I will post reviews as soon as I have time to read all of them; my free time right now is going into the spinning wheel. What I can tell you is that all of these books are pretty fabulous. I have been reading Sew Subversive at night before I go to bed and I am learning a lot (which is saying something since I have been sewing without instruction for about 15 years.) Some of the patterns are pretty basic, but it has great tips and is very well illustrated.
