Well, there isn't much to show for my knitting today. Especially since it's gift knitting. But I love the color - it's perfect for this first week of fall . I'm slowly knitting away on it every chance I get. Few and far between though those moments are. Since I get so little actual knitting time I have lots of time to think about knitting and I figured out that if I knit one project a month I'll have my gift knitting finished for Christmas. It helps that I actually get a few extra days seeing as I'll probably be sending them home with my mom when they visit for Christmas ;-) But I still fear that this goal might be over reaching. Oh well, the good news is that gifts are always a good thing, even if they come after Christmas.
Reading hasn't had much more progress but I have started two of those books I brought back from vacation.
March by Geraldine Brooks is a novel based on Mr. March, off to war and therefore missing from
Little Women. I love historical fiction :)
Mother Teresa - Come Be My Light is the personal writings of Mother Teresa. So far I've only read the introduction so I can't really comment on it. I am so interested in getting to know a little of the "real" Mother Teresa, beyond the sweet soundbites that get quoted all over.
And now for
linking up and enjoying all the eye candy :)

Kate, what yarn are you using for your Christmas knit? I really love that color and would love to see if I can find it here.
I may be over reaching with my Christmas knitting, but I going to give it my best, any excuse to knit more.
It's Palette by KnitPicks and the color is autumn heather :)
gorgeous color!!! Perfect for fall!
Both your reads sound good, more to add to my list :)
What a great idea! I should have started my Christmas knits months ago, I may have to do 3 a month!
A gift for me??? Oh well, it is a gorgeous color and whoever gets it is super lucky :)
