Cookie Swap 2011

This year, the annual Cookie Swap was hosted by Melissa.  She very graciously opened up her home to us for some nibbling and knitting.

Cookies to share

 That's Jamie in the corner.  Yes, sometimes we do put Baby in the corner.  Speaking of babies, Caryn is currently incubating one.  Atta girl, Caryn!

Some of us are shy

But not these two

That's Auntie Carolyn checking on the incubation progress.  So far, so good.

The usual suspects: Rebecca,Charity and Faith

Yes, it's true.  We have two of the virtues (Faith and Charity) in our little knitting group.  We are currently looking for Hope,. Patience, Prudence and Temperance.  If you know of their whereabouts, please send them our way.

Shhhhhh.  They're doing math.

Resident Yarn Taster

This is Nabokov.  He likes to chew on yarn.

Hostess in a rare moment of relaxation

This is Melissa.  She's cool but she's very particular about where she sits in knitting group.  Middle seat facing the baristas; that's just how it is and it's not up for discussion.  Of course, in her home she is no different.  This is "her" seat.  Only she (and the Grinch) are allowed to sit in the Seat.  No one else.

Oh no she didn't...
