For your consideration:

Zoe showed me this clip at work. Because all knitters love Harry Potter.

Not much going on at the moment. Inspired by the French Cafe compilation that keeps spinning in my car stereo, I bought Mathieu Boogaerts' latest album. It's finally available on itunes here in the states! It's really great, but difficult to describe. There are some very interesting things coming out of France these days.

I am also geekily excited about a recent Lush purchase. They just released this year's Charity Pot lotion. Love, love, love. It smells kind of like roses, which is curious since it doesn't contain any. Maybe that's the combination of the ylang-ylang, gardenia, and tagette's oil. My favorite part is the dry finish. It's not drying, like Potion, but dries to a powder finish while still providing moisture to the skin below. This is very important to someone who handles fiber all day and can't have lotion-y hands.

Other geeky excitement: Those with a gimlet eye might spot me in one of the Yarn Con pictures on The Panopticon. I'm the lady wearing a red shirt and an orange hat. Seemed like a good idea at the time. I got a lot of compliments on it, and now I can see why so many would take notice. That is a bold color combination.
