Can we talk about the weather? I can. The first true gorgeous New York weekend of the year, and Hart and I took full advantage.
Saturday morning we woke up and hit CafĂ© Mogador in the East Village. It soooo didn’t matter what we ate or how good it was (but it was) because we were eating outside.
We hit the dog run at Tompkins Square Park (it’s seriously like going to a zoo- people just hang there for hours watching the dogs), then stopped by Downtown Yarns to browse, and then landed at DBA at 2pm to meet Crimenotes.
DBA, how I love thee. We were there for, seriously, 5 hours. Hart, Crimenotes and I played Scrabble and then two of CN’s friends showed up and we played hearts.

And that’s me up there, just after scoring about 7 points for Yarn.
Speaking of Yarn, my silence has been multimedia related. I have taken about 25 pictures of this gorgeous yarn below- it's Blue Sky Alpacas - Alpaca and Silk - in Spring. It it so light that it's just not very photogenic and I just need to call it a day with trying to shoot it.

I haven’t given up on Rusted Root. She’s resting. But in the meantime, I’m working on this shawl from the latest Interweave.
If you have it, the yarn and the color I’m using is featured on the cover of Last Minute Knitted Gifts.
Anyway, Hart and I ended our weekend in Battery Park yesterday, where we kicked off our shoes, did crossword puzzles, and I started my shawl.

Why isn't Hart's moniker "Navarre"?
Because Hart is better, and it's a word play on Heart, duh. Sadly, you read this blog more than Hart does. I'm not sure he even knows this is his new name.....
I haven't played hearts in ages. I used to meet up with some girlfriends for hearts and beer at least once a month.
Fun! Gorgeous images... wow.
