I also received the Rob Thomas CD, a National Geographic DVD about Polar Bears, new slippers and some dark chocolate. I <i>love<\/i> Dark Chocolate. I got all excited when I heard the US was bringing out Dark Chocolate M&#038;M&#8217;s for Star Wars. When our special edition Star Wars M&#038;M&#8217;s came out, I raced to the supermarket, but all we got were plain old crispy M&#038;M&#8217;s in a new package. Ripped off! (The only M&#038;M&#8217;s we get are plain, peanut and crispy)<br \/>\nAnyway, I had a lovely day. \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\nEm made me a birthday card.<br \/>\n<center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"dollyandcard.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/dollyandcard.jpg\" width=\"398\" height=\"299\" border=\"0\" \/><\/center><br \/>\nAnd as you can see, I finished the Dolly dress. <a href=\"http:\/\/nadajknits.typepad.com\/nadaj_knits\/\">Nada<\/a> made a good observation when she compared it to knitting with styrofoam. One more to go, thanks heavens they&#8217;re reasonably quick!<br \/>\nSo today was back to the sewing grind. This is what Twinkie does every single time I lay out fabric to cut.<br \/>\n<center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twinkiefabric.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/twinkiefabric.jpg\" width=\"398\" height=\"299\" border=\"0\" \/><\/center><br \/>\nI&#8217;m sure she thinks she&#8217;s helping. She has nearly lost one of her ears before, coming up close to see what I am doing, and laying her ears on the cutting line.
