I love me a good deal!

I am really loving these internet deal sites that are cropping up all of the web.  I just discovered a new one the other day called Mamasource by Mamapedia.  Like with all of these sites, you get a daily email sent right to your inbox and most of the time, it probably requires nothing more than a quick skim and delete.

But sometimes, the deals are really great!  Like today's One-Year Subscription to National Geographic Kids for only $7!  The deal is listed at $10, but with the coupon code NATGEOLK3 you can get it for only $7!

Another great feature about this site in particular is that you have the option of choosing a school to receive 5% of your purchases!  Our local Catholic schools are recipient options.  Great deals helping a great cause!

I am really excited about receiving our magazine, as I know the kids will love it!

Yarn Along

~ Two of my favorite things are knitting and reading, and the evidence of this often shows up in my photographs. I love seeing what other people are knitting and reading as well. So, what are you knitting or crocheting right now? What are you reading? Take a single photo and share it either on your blog or on Flickr. Leave a link below to share your photo with the rest of us! ~

I have been trying for weeks to join the "Yarn Along" and finally got to it!  I am currently working on this kimono style sweater for Avila.  It is worked as all one piece and easy-peasy, if I could just find the time to work on it!  The yarn is Lion Brand fisherman's weight virgin wool.  And I think it's u.g.l.y.  Can't wait to cast off and toss it into a big vat of dye.  I am thinking a nice moss green.  We shall see.

I am reading Nina Plank's Real Food, which I love.  But it is coming along about as slowly as the sweater! Andrew borrowed "Food Rules" from a colleague, so I am flipping through that as well.

Check out Ginny's delightful blog for more yarn along or to join the fun!
