So since this is supposed to be a fiber filled blog, before I share my crush I'll take care of a little knitting business first. TA-STINKING-DA!!!!! How cute is this?

| Check out my new bling! |
My husband beat me home tonight and had my anniversary present (3+ weeks early) that he couldn't wait for me to open. It's a little blurry but my necklace is So Cool (and so is he!!). Anyway, this is my finished Watershed in Spud & Chloe 'Sweater'. I love the whole idea of this vest but the really wide stand-up collar doesn't work for me since it's wider than my neck is long (it flops open in back unless I hold really, really,
really still. So, I figured out how to wear it with the collar folded down and I love it.
And now that I've mentioned how awesome my husband is, it seems really wrong to share my secret crush...but I will anyway. Steve Martin. Yup,
the Steve Martin of 70's SNL fame. The man is hands. down. flat. out. talented. He's hilarious, smart, witty, a funny actor, a great writer, and not that that isn't enough, the man ROCKS the banjo and can write music to boot. I stayed up past my ever-earlier-bedtime a few weeks ago to watch the season finale of Saturday Night Live expecting to fall asleep before it was over but Justin Timberlake and Lady Gaga kept me in stitches til 1:00 and then I had to see what was playing on Austin City Limits and there he was, Mr. Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers. Made it through the entire hour and even got up to write myself a note to google his music in the morning. Yesterday, my husband downloaded 'Rare Bird Alert' for me off itunes and I've listened to the album 4 times now and love every song on it. If you like bluegrass music at all (it's my favorite genre), check him out. You may find yourself with an old-er man crush, too! (
Here's a link to his song 'Jubilation Day' if you want to take a peek & a listen)
