Upsidedown Christmas trees???

Apparently, upside down Christmas trees that you hang from the ceiling are in vogue this year. I think it makes sense, especially for people with little apartments or tiny doggies that like to bat Christmas ornaments off the bottom of the tree.

While I've been lounging around eating too much good food, I've been making more hats for the Mitten Tree at church on my Knifty Knitter. It is so fast to do once you get the hang of it and it's a great way of using scrap yarn that doesn't involve making a bazillion granny squares. I just started my 25th hat today. I wrote all of my sister's students' names on mini x-mas stockings in glitter paint today as well. Writing with glitter paint is a talent that takes a ton of patience and a steady hand.

S. picked me up so we could go eat dinner at Chili's and I about died because he was wearing white knit shorts. OMG--to all the men out there that might read this, don't wear white knit shorts--they show way too much in a non-flattering way. Once I recovered from this horrific fashion faux paux we did chow down on some good food that was actually cooked properly and I snagged some new holiday coasters for my collection. Sounds nerdy, but they are handy and I only snag the ones from Chilli's. Then we went to Wal-Mart so that S. could buy Golden Girls season 3. I went to Hastings to look for a book for my sister, but they were out of it but they did have the new holiday issue of Bust with Rose McGowan on it (dang i wish i looked that hot) and there was a feature on male knitting and several of the guys with knitting blogs that I lurk on were featured or name dropped, so I thought that was cool.
