Okay, I missed a few days, but they have been pretty interesting. First, on Saturday I took my daughter and her friend to see a presentation at the library from Black Creek pioneer village- a period park here in Toronto. The woman showed them how to cart wool into fleece, and how to use a drop spindle. I really just used them to get it- I really wanted to see it myself… it was very informative, and it makes me much more interested in spinning myself!
I also learned there that I’m very glad I have girls. There were quite a few boys there, that were mightly annoying. Asking silly questions, jumping up and down, interupting… I knw I would have loved a son, but girls are just easier.
Then on Sunday we went to the Santa Claus parade at my home town. Smaller and more traditional than the Toronto one, but also less crowded and more fun because of it.
Here’s my crew:
The two on the ends are mine. Aren’t they cute?
Below is the only shot that I took of the parade. I love that the klingons come every year (I’m not a huge star trek fans, just its cool for such a small town).
So back to the real world today. I went shopping, but I’ll write about that tomorrow
