How to spend your weekends

If it's cold and raining and you're recovering from a mini plague, the best thing to do is pack up all your fibery stuff and whichever members of your family are stupid brave enough to join you and take it on the road to sit outside on your friend's alpaca farm (see? I don't really even need to blog this stuff, just send you off to linkland) giving spinning and wool combing demos all day. Really, it's the best.

Unless you're up for digging out the old prom dress (or the dress you wore to your husband's posh employee Christmas party a million years--and pounds--ago, which was most recently worn by your daughter to her prom), sensible shoes and handknits for the first annual (oh, we are soo doing this again, probably sooner than next year) Zombie Prom Date Knitter's Zombie Slayers Prom.

because I'm so lame I didn't bring a camera, again

Some of your best friends + prom dresses, shovels and knitting + fantastic lunch, coffee, ice cream sundae + Zombieland = BEST FUN EVER

Unless you're suckered into more spinning and wool combing demos by The Girl Who Knows (and is somehow related to) Everyone on yet another cold (but not rainy, yay!) Saturday at the Vicksburg, MI Historical Society's Fall Harvest Festival. "I think we're the old-timey craft demos," said Holly. It really was a whole lotta fun, well, except for the part where my kid Em was really, really sick (102.5 temp when we finally got home to a thermometer) but refused to stay home and looked like zombie girl huddled in a camp chair covered in blankets. Next time, mom rules.

Huh, seems everyone else has taken to the lazy...I can't find a blog to link. What kind of friends are you people? Oops, I did find a few photos. Rebecca's camera is as evil as Snot's.
Note to self: if you forget your own camera, you've no ability to crop out your own ass.
