Have you read any of Diane Mott Davidson's cozy mysteries featuring Goldie the caterer? I've begun another, The Grilling Season, a fun cozy mystery set in the fictional mountain town of Mountain Meadows which seems to be based on an actual community not far from where I live. It's always a joy to read a book with a familiar setting as I can pick up on recognizable details. 

p. 56 says, "He banged the phone down and regarded me dolefully. After a moment he said, "You look terrible, Mom." 

"Thanks."

"Why don't you cook or something?"

I'm joining the "Fibers on Friday" posting at http://wonderwhyalpacafarm.blogspot.com My newest WIP is this "But I'm Biased" scarf at http://ladyochron.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/sept-09-v1point2-pdf2.pdf It knits in a jiffy with an easy two row pattern that creates a lacy, mesh-like fabric. 

I am using Malabrigo worsted, Red Java #79, and size 9 circs. I wonder if they even make this color any more because I've had this one gifted skein for a few years now. This pattern seemed to call for it. 

What are you making this weekend?
