Follow the Mome Raths

Yesterday was a great "spree" day. I went to West Ed, and first went to check out the formal dresses, since the one I'm sewing for Top Hat is not working out. I bought nice new pale yellow sheets to match my quilt, 50% off. Fabric to cover my plaid comforter, and to make an apron since I can't bake without getting flour all over me. It's a retro 50's pattern, I'm making the large one in the middle with a "bib". I got neato material too, also very 50's, in horizontal blue and white stripes with green vines and pink flowers. I also got two pairs of stain-resistant khaki's from Old Navy, absolutely identical because they only had one colour. I didn't have any work pants so that was a problem. I have to go back this weekend to get work shirts. I also got wool to make a scarf (those of you as obsessed with LOTR as I am should recognize it). After all this I went to Chapters, picked up an Agatha Christie, and went and had lunch at Moxie's. Came home, studied, made up my bed with newly washed sheets, and cut out the apron pattern. A profitable day.

Today does not promise to be as exciting, unfortunately. I'll be studying Carbonates and Mapping, cutting out my apron (and possibly sewing on it), and dropping off my roll of film at London Drugs so I can give Curtis his camera back!
