“…He had a broad face and a little round belly,That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly!..”Clement Clarke Moore – “A Visit from St. Nicholas" – 1822.
The old Smukers skit from SNL came up for me the other night. I was at a party and the hosts served a wine called “Fish Eye” wine. I grabbed a glassful thinking, with that name this has got to be the best wine ever made, by miles. (It was no better than any other middling wine on the market). Fish Eye, yecccchh!
I used to knit quite a bit when I was married. I made most of my clothes, but knitting was one thing I could do at parties while talking. Our Cuban friends had the men in one room discussing all kinds of topics and women in another discussing their children and hair styles. None of them sewed or tried any recipes other than their family’s..The most creative knit I did was a RWB pancho with many peace symbols and other things of the late 60s; I think it even had my name – got rid of it long ago. I would not consider using poly yarn for clothing now.
