Scarlet Hamster: January 2009
http://scarlethamster.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 23, 2009. Revolution via Facebook in Egypt. In response to the military action in Gaza, several Egyptians have been using Facebook for their social activism. Sunday, January 18, 2009. I feel exhilarated from today's cooking efforts. I had a strong urge to cook, so I made:. S Chinese-style egg flower soup. This recipe is an old favorite of mine. Also her "Delicious Stock" recipe with dried black mushrooms, carrot, lettuce, and bean sprouts. I anticipate making nyaeng myun with it. The ingr...

Scarlet Hamster: January 2011
http://scarlethamster.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 07, 2011. Using Skype for long-distance romance. Really great article in today's paper about college students sustaining romantic relationships with video chat and technology. The implication is that the Turkey Drop (dumping boyfriend during Thanksgiving break at home) is no more with all this connectivity to keep the love alive while apart. That may be true, but I also suspect that the technology keeps some relationships on life support much longer than they should.

Scarlet Hamster: July 2009
http://scarlethamster.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 27, 2009. I've made great progress on my baby coat dress. The alpaca is a beautiful pruney color. It's sheddy as alpaca is wont to be, but I think the softness and color make up for that. I need to sew on the arms and buttons and then wash and block the thing. PS I decided to move all my blogs over to free blogspot hosting. So I have layers of broken links everywhere. bear with me please. I've also started a side blog about statistics for user experience researchers. I am a user experience r...

Scarlet Hamster: February 2009
http://scarlethamster.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 18, 2009. Yummy cold Korean soup noodles. Side dishes of kimchi, pickled ginger, and fried mushrooms. My first from-scratch attempt at this dish. Sunday, February 08, 2009. I finished the Ripple Scarf a while ago. It is lovely and soft and just a tiny bit sheddy because of the alpaca. I am tempted to make another lacy scarf or smoke ring soon with qiviut (muskox down). But I am not sure I need to fork over $90 for a skein at this moment. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Scarlet Hamster: Knit frenzy!
http://scarlethamster.blogspot.com/2009/02/knit-frenzy.html
Sunday, February 08, 2009. I finished the Ripple Scarf a while ago. It is lovely and soft and just a tiny bit sheddy because of the alpaca. I am tempted to make another lacy scarf or smoke ring soon with qiviut (muskox down). But I am not sure I need to fork over $90 for a skein at this moment. Here's what the sweater looks like flat.

Scarlet Hamster: More goofing around
http://scarlethamster.blogspot.com/2009/07/more-goofing-around.html
Monday, July 27, 2009. As a good recessionista, I have decided to give up official web hosting and domain names. Blogspot serves my purposes, and it sure is easier to use the canned templates than for me to dredge up some HTML from the dark corners of my memory. Hence this new domain name. I've also started a side blog about statistics for user experience researchers. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Stats for UX Researchers. My free knitting patterns!

Scarlet Hamster: Peanut butter jar camping lamp
http://scarlethamster.blogspot.com/2009/08/peanut-butter-jar-camping-lamp.html
Sunday, August 02, 2009. Peanut butter jar camping lamp. I made this lamp based on instructions from Made by Cynthia Rae. I had all the materials and tools hanging around aside from the battery-operated candle light. Since peanut butter jars are rather difficult to come by, I've been experimenting with other containers. Plastic is key because broken glass is no fun. I got a square salsa jar that might work. hmm. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Stats for UX Researchers.
