Cross-country skiing is something I like. Until the icy junk hit on Tuesday, we had some of the best snow in recent memory. I was starting to feel like I knew what I was doing out there in the woods, but the ice has changed that!
Here are some other things I've been liking lately:
Moop Letter bag: I purchased this during Phase 1 of Project 333 when I realized that the leather tote I'd been burdening was not holding up under the strain. While I prefer open outside pockets (the flap covers two front pockets), the bag feels great on my shoulder and holds a LOT! The quality of the bag is fantastic, and the customer service is amazing.
Delias Thompson Eternity Secret Message Necklace: The way the secret message circle slips gracefully along the necklace's chain is far more pleasing than I could have anticipated. Delias is charming and delightful to work with, and I am thrilled with the elegant playfulness of my new necklace. It's a great way to keep your own mantra for 2011 close to your heart.
Rosebud Salve: this stuff is perfect for winter lips and cuticles.
Brooklyn Tweed's Shelter Yarn: Have you knit or crocheted with this stuff yet? As his prize for my recent contest, Drew asked me to knit a hat for his wife. I'm making this pattern, and every stitch is pure, squishy goodness.
Roasted Chickpeas: I saw these on Pinterest (are you using Pinterest yet? Why not?) and promptly made them. They are delish on a salad. Much healthier than croutons, they give that same crunch and pop of flavor.
What have you been liking lately?
hmmm..roasted chickpeas! have to try them.
I have been liking thinking about France. And getting there. And working with botanicals to get pressed effects on fabric!

I've been wanting cross country skis. Though we probably would only get to use them once or twice a year and likely there'd be a few years where we couldn't. But I loved cross country skiing in junior high.
