40

So, a big thing happened last week: I turned 40. When my husband turned 40 in February, it nearly killed him. He absolutely hated it. I, on the other hand, am excited! This is going to be my best decade yet. Life is good!

Every year on my birthday, I start a new project. This year was no exception.
Pattern: Interpolate. Yarn: Misti Alpaca Tonos Carnaval in Surf Blue and Truffle. I expect to have it completed by the end of the week. It's really fun--the perfect balance between mindless and interesting. The yarn is fabulous and soft and gorgeous.

My birthday also brought some fun entertainment.
I used to be a HUGE Tori Amos fan, but I had never seen her live. So, we got together with some friends who are also fans, and had an amazing evening, which included dinner at McCormick & Schmick's. Sooo good!
It was a really fun way to start a new decade--great music, great friends, great time!
