This past Saturday, CostumeChick, WifeMomKnitter and I went to Anphoe‘s for some knitting and chatting, and also for some dumplings!

Anphoe made the pork filling and I made the tofu one. They were YUMMY! After that, we knitted and played some Wii. Well, let me just put this out there first – I’m not big about playing video games, because 1) I’m not very good, 2) I’m not a good sport about losing. But this Wii thing… It’s addicting! And so much fun! You can see pictures and video on Anphoe’s blog.

So besides playing video games and eat, I did make some progress on the MoonDance:

Chart B is almost done!!! Which means this stole is almost done! :) You can’t see the edging in the pictures, but I can assure you they are all there.

On the other news, I bought a scratch ticket and the result:

I won $25.00!!!!!!! The biggest one I’ve ever got!!! I think before that, the most money I won was ten bucks! Well, I’m one step towards winning big, right? ;) A lady I worked with won $200,000 on a scratch ticket not too long ago. Yeah, you read that right. Then shortly after, she won over $8,000 at Mohegan Sun… Only if I have her luck! But I think my risk taking level is too small to win that level. I guess that’s why I’m an engineer.

So I bought couple of Alice Starmore books from amazon not too long ago and they finally arrived, along with Beyond Wool with a trade from Ravelry.

Only if I can find a copy of Aran Knitting, there are so many patterns I want to knit but I just can’t afford the book! Too rare. ::sigh::

Speaking of books, I have a duplicate copy of this one:

I posted this on Destash book forum on Ravelry, but I figure I will offer this to my friends as well – I”m willing to part with it for $8.00 + actual shipping (if required).

Well, I’m off to go over the new books and complaint about no progress made on MoonDance to the dogs.
