Shedir hat started

This hat (Shedir  see page 3)  is densely cabled and will take a little long - and many many stitch markers. (One for start of row, one set for first cable pattern, one set for second cable pattern, one set just to make sure I'm making the purl stitches in the right place.)

It has rained here, lightly all day. We were supposed to have heavy rain, and might still for all I know. Tom made osso bucco today and it will gently meld flavors overnight and we have it tomorrow. I'm surprised we have not posted the recipe and will take care of that tomorrow. We dearly love osso bucco (veal shanks) and are so pleased to find a great source for them at a butcher's in Boston's North End. But we don't know too many other people who really like them.

In World of Warcraft news my mid-40s BELF hunter has taken to wearing the Admiral's Hat and has spent the last session slogging through the great out doors to find Flight Points. Travel is harder on the Horde side. But fishing is easier and I just got Nat Pagle's fishing pole and finished his fishing quest (woot!).
