Prada and Crochet: Oops!

Crochet in the News

My mistake. It's not Prada, it's John Rocha... scroll down the article and you'll find mention of crochet, AND, if you want to see it, go here:

John Rocha

and click on the arrows up to pictures # 7, 9 11 (maybe it's knit), 21 (the purse might be crocheted). I must say that this person has an awful sense of fashion... in my opinion, and I'm entitled to it.

Crochet in the News: JC Penny


So, there are lots of news articles mentioning crochet, and here is one of them. I'll post the one about Prada in a few...

Another Awful Headache

Yesterday I had such a bad headache, I couldn't get up. I'm so glad I had picked the boys up from school before it got worse.

I almost couldn't believe it, Danny offered to make dinner, and it was his turn to do dishes yesterday. It's not like him! And both my boys did what they could to make me more comfortable. I think I'll keep 'em!

Shining City


“I’ve spoken of the shining city all my political life. … [I]n my
mind it was a tall, proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans,
wind-swept, God-blessed.”


President Ronald Reagan, farewell address, Jan. 11, 1989
