Testing out new Blog Editor

I'm deciding between two blog editors: Blogo and now ecto. I really enjoyed using Blogo but I'm a bit concerned that there hasn't been much activity on the developer's blog site. Now I am trying out ecto and so far it is pretty easy. I think I prefer the look of Blogo's interface but I can get used to anything.

Here's a pic of my latest FO: Red Velvet Cupcakes in Koigu KPPM

I am also knitting this pattern up in Malabrigo Sock, Velvet Grapes colorway.

We're gearing up for Easter so this week will be filled with basket shopping and knitting up some Easter eggs and bunnies like I did last year.

Frustrating Start to the Day

My day began with a frustrating revelation at my son's new pediatrician. Apparently, I needed his new insurance card, the actual card, in order for him to see the doctor. Never mind the fact that I had ALL of the policy information. Sorry, the little plastic card is of critical importance. And why wasn't I informed of this when I made the appointment? So my morning was shot when I could have been working. Fine. The Littleman went on to preschool and I headed home to get work done (housework and work work).

On a more happy note I did pick up some Koigu fingering in an amazing colorway. These will make a super cute pair of socks.
