9 Haunted Girls: July 2008
http://9hauntedgirls.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Loosely about knitting, cooking, personal thoughts and reminiscences, and other ephemera. Sunday, July 20, 2008. I drive because I have so much money to burn. Not really, but sometimes it seems that way. This week NPR ran a story about how Tucson AZ has the lowest gas prices in the country. Meanwhile, the Pac NW seems to have some of the highest. But here I am, throwing caution and money to the wind! Not only do I commute by car 2 hours every day to and from work, but I also drive on my weekends! Because...

9 Haunted Girls: September 2008
http://9hauntedgirls.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Loosely about knitting, cooking, personal thoughts and reminiscences, and other ephemera. Friday, September 26, 2008. Today I made all the chiles I picked earlier this week into a nice green hot sauce! And I found these great little 'woozy' bottles at the local homebrew store this morning. Here was my recipe, of which I made 4 batches:. 3 - 35 cups coarsely sliced fresh chiles. 1/2 onion, coarsely chopped. 3/4 cup white vinegar. Boil these in a pot for about 30 minutes. Remove from heat and add. I haven'...

9 Haunted Girls: Woodland Creatures
http://9hauntedgirls.blogspot.com/2009/06/woodland-creatures.html
Loosely about knitting, cooking, personal thoughts and reminiscences, and other ephemera. Tuesday, June 30, 2009. I think this is the darling that started helping itself to my garden recently. As my friend Jenny says, it's a good thing they're cute. I've been spraying deer repellent to keep them from devastating my plants like they did last year. But poor thing, it looks so skinny. I kind of feel sorry for it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Recent reviews by Angie G. A Girl's Gotta Knit.

9 Haunted Girls: October 2008
http://9hauntedgirls.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Loosely about knitting, cooking, personal thoughts and reminiscences, and other ephemera. Sunday, October 5, 2008. It's been rainy and cool for the last few days, so yesterday I decided I would go hiking in the rain and mist at McLane Creek to look for banana slugs. That park is just as beautiful in the rain as it is in the sun, and I actually didn't get that wet hiking in the trees. I wandered off the trail at one point and almost stepped on this little guy. And so my attempt to reprogram myself to the ...

9 Haunted Girls: Eggs and other Adventures.
http://9hauntedgirls.blogspot.com/2009/09/eggs-and-other-adventures.html
Loosely about knitting, cooking, personal thoughts and reminiscences, and other ephemera. Sunday, September 27, 2009. Eggs and other Adventures. Recently and it's inspired me. Maybe it's that now I'm reading Amster-Burton's Hungry Monkey. Or maybe it's just an avoidance tactic for dealing with the real stress of the wedding. I'm not sure. Whatever it is, it sure tastes good. The poached egg comes out perfectly. There's a great tutorial on Chow.com. Without ever quite succeeding. Fan-freaking-tastic.

9 Haunted Girls: Day Trip to Astoria
http://9hauntedgirls.blogspot.com/2009/05/day-trip-to-astoria.html
Loosely about knitting, cooking, personal thoughts and reminiscences, and other ephemera. Friday, May 29, 2009. Day Trip to Astoria. On Memorial Day we headed down to Astoria, OR to meet up with a couple friends, fellow Tucson-transplants Andy and Chiara. Nico was excited to make the pilgrimmage to the town where much of The Goonies was filmed. I was just happy to cross another thing off the to-see list and hang out in the sun with friends. The first thing we did was head on over to Fort George Brewery.

9 Haunted Girls: The arithmetic of the damned
http://9hauntedgirls.blogspot.com/2009/05/arithmetic-of-damned.html
Loosely about knitting, cooking, personal thoughts and reminiscences, and other ephemera. Wednesday, May 20, 2009. The arithmetic of the damned. 8 hours of sleep 2 hours of getting ready in the morning 1 hour commuting 8.5 hours of work 1 hour commuting = 3.5 hours in which to have an actual life and fulfilling relationships each day. What's your damnable arithmetic? Labels: feeling sorry for myself. I think the math is not too bad on mine, it's just the starting time that's awful:. A Girl's Gotta Knit.

9 Haunted Girls: Something Old (warning: soppy)
http://9hauntedgirls.blogspot.com/2009/05/something-old-warning-soppy.html
Loosely about knitting, cooking, personal thoughts and reminiscences, and other ephemera. Thursday, May 28, 2009. Something Old (warning: soppy). I've been giving some thought to buying myself a nice handmade hankie off etsy for the wedding. I have a soft-spot for quaint old-timey things and I figured if there was ever a time I could justify buying a lacy hankie, this might be it. I'm just a little hankie. As square as square can be. But with a stitch or two. They make a bonnet out of me. When my mom pac...

9 Haunted Girls: At last the hellish experience of dress-fitting is over.
http://9hauntedgirls.blogspot.com/2009/08/at-last-hellish-experience-of-dress.html
Loosely about knitting, cooking, personal thoughts and reminiscences, and other ephemera. Friday, August 28, 2009. At last the hellish experience of dress-fitting is over. I just got back from my second/final dress fitting at, where else, David's Bridal. Whew. You know, going to try on the dresses was actually fun. My sisters were both in town, we got a great saleslady, and the dress seemed perfect. Thanks, Sedentary Job, 2-hour Commute and Depression! And she did laugh, a little. But the rest of the...
