Full Weekend!
Well, there was a lot going on this weekend. It's cliché to say this, but I need another weekend to recover from my weekend!
Yesterday Oscar and I drove over to Rhode Island to meet my dad and his wife, who drove down from Rockport, Massachusetts. It was COLD!!! Apart from lunch, we did a lot of driving around -- down to Point Judith, around Beavertail State Park, and around Newport. The water was very beautiful and the architecture quite grand. I'd been to Newport once before, but it was a couple of years ago. So it was fun and we had a nice chance to visit. I was wiped out when we got home, though.
Then tonight I went to supper club. This month's theme: Under the Tuscan Sun. I took an antipasto bowl -- very easy and very good. Everything else was good, too -- lasagna, white bean and barley soup, bread, chianti, Tuscan quesadillas, and some good homemade biscotti for dessert.
I haven't gotten a lot of knitting done this week, but here are some photos of the sweater I knitted last year, as modeled by my precious niece, Helen. The sweater is still a little big for her (she'll be 8 months old next week), but my sister was kind enough to put it on over her pjs and send me a few photos:

I didn't know you like to cook... I have joined a cooking club too, but I have never gone to any of their meeting. Since I went to SnB meeting first, I spend most of my time knitting, then I have got no time for cooking :)
That sweater looks so cute on your niece. Love it!
SHe is so sweet! How can your sister resist taking pictures of her all the time?
Look! You updated and we commented! Your niece is so cute, and the sweater's not bad either. :)
