We've done that (needed cards for a poker game, and, oh well...)... kinda big but it works if you pull the Major Arcana and the "Page" suit cards.

It seems that When The brits had ther fingers in India they just called all of the dofferent family spice mixtures curry since that was a common ingredient. They are in fact quite different.

Once heard a piece on the CBC about curries, which they defined as spicy stews for this study on how the spicy ingredients had antibiotic properties and the closer you got to the equater the spicier you got. A lot of these recipies were developed before reliable refridgeration so you had to have some sort of power to knock out bugs. They included chili as a curry.

If they have patterns already say something like "I really like the patterns, I have one, what's the best way to submit--or here it is." If they don't "your cotton inspired me and I'd like to share this with you, here are examples of other yarns having projects." That's just off the top of my head, sales are not my strength either.

Haven't seen that one, but it does make sense. Spicy food can really make you break out in a sweat and get your lymph nodes to release all the bad stuff out of your body.

HAPPY UGLY DOUGLY BIRTHDAY.

(That sounds like a song lyric - should be followed by OOGETTY, BOOGETY)

Fishy - any preference in green, red or yellow curry for your on-playa thai coconut curry?

I'm a red curry fish. Mostly because I so totally in love with red curry that I never tried the yellow and green. and then there is peanut sauce, the nectar of the gods...

Any ideas?

I didn't see it, no - I've been hit-and-miss here in the Bar for a few days, and expect that trend to continue for the rest of the month. :-/ I actually haven't gone beyond garter stitch scarves in my knitting, yet (I've got yarn ready and waiting for a Clapotis, but $DEITY knows when I'll actually sit down and figure it out), so asking me to proof a pattern would be...a challenge. *laugh* But thanks for thinking of me!

Xta_G · Post by **Xta_G** » Thu May 11, 2006 10:51 am

Hm... you actually might be ideal.. I'm not asking for proofers to find mistakes, but people to read the instructions for clarity! I teach an intermediate class (if you can knit and purl, you can take my class) that is all about creating texture with just knit and purl, and then cables (SUPER EASY in case you were wondering) and eyelets (somewhat less easy, not but hard...)

If you're interested in taking a look, toss me an email at [email protected] and I'll send you the Word file... formatting will prob be buggy, but if you can read through it and let me know what is automatically confusing, that would be a huge help.

How about "What will it be?" for a slogan.

...said cryptically by the bartender, refering to the future,...
...or your drink?
...or both?

...pass that green stuff over here. please?

I'm a teeeeny bit of a writer.. but I don't think I'm very witty. Not one of my skills, nor is storytelling, alas.. :)

I'll work on it, though...

EDB - I like it! I don't know how I missed that on my first glance past, but squinting at the screen again, I saw it... and dig it! Hope, Fear, the future, and a drink to savour!

Nicely done :)

Heh... what sort of tone or emphasis are you hearing, TITWI? Is there a knowing gleam in my eye? A hint of invitaion? Something else..?
