Where Did The Weekend Go?

Another weekend has passed us by.  I'm not sure what I did all weekend, but it was gone before I knew what happened.  On Friday my mom found out that she got her house - thanks for all of your thoughts.  She's just over the moon, and she should be because it's a really cute house and I know she'll be happy there.  I treated myself Friday after work and got a pedicure.  It was long over due and now my feet look (and feel) great.

I finished blocking the SSS and I'm quite happy with it.  Now if only it fits the recipient.  Keep your fingers crossed. 

I couldn't resist and cast on for the Zip Cardi over the weekend.  I really like the licorne and the teal color is good - something different for me, but I really like it.  The licorne is so soft and silky and I'm doing better with my gauge with this yarn.  I'm excited about this cardigan because I think I'll be able to wear it a lot this summer (if I ever get it finished).  Ronnie is still coming along.  I worked on it on Saturday at the eye doctor and on our drive to pick up trees.  I'm almost to the armhole shaping on the back.  I think I'll try to finish the back and then dedicate myself to the Zip Cardi until it's finished.  I just don't do well with more than one project (not counting a sock in progress) - I'm too easily distracted and need to be able to just focus on one thing at a time.

I finally found something for the center of my dining room table. I really struggled with this because I didn't want anything too impractical and silk flowers aren't really my thing, but anyway, here's what I settled on.

The runner is from Target and the sugar mold is from a little specialty store in town.  What do you think?

Have a good Monday.
