Lash Envy ~
A couple of weeks ago we went to my sisters for dinner. Knowing you love food/recipes as much as I do, I’ve been meaning to share some pictures and recipes of a must-make salad and dessert.

My sister, she sets a pretty table.

Pomegranate – so messy but sooooo good.

Herman Heimer (or Herm for short. That was her nickname, growing up. She’ll love me for posting that) she makes over-the-top, fantastic salads. Warm Wilted Winter Salad.
The market was out of escarole and radicchio, but any hearty, leafy lettuce will do (as the dressing is served warm thus rendering a more delicate lettuce very, very wilt-y).

I make the dessert – it’s my thing. Yogurt Lemon Cake. Make it. You’ll be glad you did.

Total lash envy. Is it just me or do little boys always get the most gorgeous eyelashes?

Will definitely try the lemon cake recipe, thanks!
And no, it’s not just you. My two boys definitely have longer lashes than my girls!

You’re on my List Of Ravelry Favorites, and I often share your stuff with my knitting friends.
I am writing everyone on my Favorites List with a couple of questions. If you can answer them for me, it would be a HUGE HUGE HUGE favor. Really HUGE.
Thing is, I am writing a piece on Ravelry for my college magazine. Topic is WHY Ravelry is such a huge success. I need opinions from fellow Ravelers like you to back up this claim I am making.
These are the questions:
1) Why did you choose to join Ravelry?
2) How did you learn about Ravelry?
3) What does Ravelry give you that other sites don’t?
4) Absolutely anything else you’d like to share with me on this subject.
My quandary is this: I love the site and come here almost every week to look for knitting tips and ideas. (I haven’t joined yet, as I am too shy to talk of my own work…)
I want to understand why others do the same. Each person must have his or her own reason and I am very curious to understand this trend.
Once I write the piece, I intend to send it across to Bob the dog. Maybe, he will post it on the site to encourage newcomers or even use it for other promotion purposes.
Thank you in advance
Keep writing, keep sharing, keep creating
Warmest regards
Cynthia
