That feeling you get when someone mentions a childhood favorite book, you suddenly realize that it's in the public domain, you find it for free on gutenberg.org and send it to your Kindle...



A trip to Laval to make an appointment with The Prefecture, because doing it online was impossible, was hard for me but I was rewarded with finds of a centime, a poor broken bracelet trodden into the pavement (Will fix and wear for luck.), and a discarded crate. Watson approves of the crate.

We were downstairs relaxing after dinner when our sweet feral Freya came by to be fed. We let her in and she let me pet her while she ate. She even purred a little. She still starts at every sound. Our goal is to earn enough of her trust to get her to the vet. Right now she still dashes back outside as soon as she finished eating or if anything spooks her. I'm hoping the colder weather will convince her that being inside is good.

I'm just waiting for some more keychains I ordered and then I'll be sending some of these cuties out to spread joy in nearby villages.

I've just finished testing this adorable crocheted penguin pattern by Laura Dixon. She plans to release the pattern on the 18th. Isn't it just the cutest thing ever?

We continue to make slow progress with feral Freya. Please excuse the shaky camera but I got excited when the kitten, whom we believe to be her offspring, came inside. I've now dubbed the kitten "Raffles." Yes, Raffles got to eat too.

Watching 'All Quiet on the Western Front' and crocheting poppies


The war to end all wars

Lest we forget


But it didn't.

And we did.
