We had a good holiday. It was SO much better than last year I don't know where to begin. Best Christmas gifts EVER = Tiffany's holiday pattern tea cup & saucer. Seriously, tea tastes better in it. I'm totally determined to have a table set with this entire pattern at some point in the future! It's so beautiful!
Also got a pair of my favourite Ugg slippers. I haven't worn them yet because I need a bigger size & the store is still out of stock! Uggh [pun intended].
Finished boyfriend's socks after New Year. Oh well. He loves them though; wore them about 4 days in a row. Which was followed by, "I need a Danish pair of socks."
Boyfriend is Danish and for him, it doesn't mean some sort of fancy Scandanavian patterned socks - but just something simple in red and white [the colours of the Danish flag]. I thought Trekking XXL made some, but alas no. So, went to Etsy and found Sunrise Fiber Lodge Studio - which had the perfect red & white yarn.
I can't wait - it looks so fabulous - and is self striping! It's superwash merino, bamboo & nylon so it should be super soft. 
This is only the 2nd time I've purchased something from an Etsy shop. I think the items people have to offer for sale are nice, but I really dislike the search process for looking for items on it. Think it could be better - the search engine that they use needs to be improved IMO.

happy new year. red cabbage with cream. has that been forced on you yet? that usually gets a giggle.
and am in the process of tagging you.
Red cabbage yes. But nothing about cream. Hmmm, will have to inquire. Though for Christmas dinner we did have ris lamande [sp?] - the rice pudding like dessert. Yum.
And the yarn came in super quick! Very impressed so can't wait to start knitting!
We're late - but Happy New Year to you as well!
