Sunday Seven

I like this idea. Here are the seven things, with links, that I am thankful for this week:

1. Hand Knitted Socks
2. The fact that I don't seem to be allergic to superwash wool, baby alpaca or cashmere.
3. Stitches West takes place near my house so I can afford to go, and it's during President's Week, so I can take the time off.
4. The Secret Garden, by Francis Hodgson Burnett. I read it again every so often. The weather here is getting more springlike and things are popping out all over.
5. Koolaid is good for something.
6. The fact that my husband doesn't like football.
7. Counterprogramming on TV against the Super Bowl (see item #6 above). I got to see the National Ice Skating Championships which I missed in January.

Hi there, and welcome to Sunday Seven! Yea! You're a charter member! I enjoyed reading the seven things you're thankful for, and I love the title of your blog.

Great list. I do like football, but did not get into the pro football season this year. I checked the score on the SB occasionally Sunday, but we watched the Closer instead.

The Secret Garden has been a favorite of my family for many years. After reading the book with my kids we also watched several movie versions, listened to the recordings of the Norman/Simon Broadway version, then saw that production when it came to the Fox Theater in Atlanta. Two years ago I got to sing/play Archibald in a local production. Both my daughters also were involved - my elder sang the part of Martha and my younger was Rose.

Isn't life great!? We all have so much to be thankful for! I wish I lived close enough to take some quilting lessons.
