Me in Words…

Filed under: Moi, Lemming — Kristi at 7:09 am on Wednesday, October 17, 2007

I ran across this at il Bloggo who got the idea from A Little Imagination and Pile of Junk… In summary, it is a list of things you are currently into. It was originally to aid in gift giving. I thought it an interesting exercise.

fibers and yarn; clogs; plum butter; orange hues; nutmeg; dark chocolate; muddied green hues; fun socks; baking; photography; creativity; music with rich vocal harmonies; singing; high contrast color combos; grapefruit scent; vintage fabric; Charles Rennie Mackintosh; learning new things; cozy mysteries; stranded colorwork knitting; molasses; tea and coffee; scent of jasmine; love; sushi; all things Swedish; all things pumpkin flavored; knee highs; vintage buttons; guitar heavy music; craftsman era; mixed CDs; gardening; deep and rich plum hues; knitting lace and cables; pewter buttons and clasps; lime flavor and scent; spinning fingering weight yarns; bubble baths; piano heavy music; cardamom; Willa Cather novels; being challenged; basil; peace; cinnamon; candles;

Fascinating. You’re a very well-rounded person and I’m not surprised to say that we like a lot of the same thing.

I saw your comments on Limedragon’s blogs you’re coming to the Twin Cities. Our main spinning shop is closing and we are kind of light in the spinning front. Depth of Field is near the U of MN area and has weaving, knitting and some spinning. There’s a lady west of the cities who works out of her house so it’s hit and miss if you get her available. We’re not strong in spinning right now.

Some winning words there! I love your color choices and hadn’t realized we shared an appreciation for the Craftsman era… have you heard of the four-woman group called Blaming Sally? I just heard a bunch of clips of their songs on the radio, as they played down in Sacramento last night, and they fit your musical interests.

It is an interesting exercise. I’d be interested in seeing how that list changes with the seasons.

I like your list. Not a bad exercise at all. I may have to borrow the idea…
