gifts and gratitude

I've been absent because of a family illness and personal mishigoss.
Today, I want to thank some of the bloggers whose contests I won in the last few weeks:

Carol, of Black Bunny Fibers, for a skein of her Unity sock yarn in "tonal shades of Democratic blue" (and another goodie) in the Ravelry fundraising raffle for Barak Obama. (There's another fundraiser in progress - Ravellers can click here to check it out!)

Serena, at Savvy Verse and Wit, for Allen Ginsberg's Howl and other poems.

Jennifer, Book Club Girl, for Hannah's Dream by Diane Hammond AND The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski.

Jill, from Rhapsody in Books for Stalin's Children by Owen Matthews.

Dawn, at She is too fond of books, for Kathleen McCleary's House and Home package. (It's amazing! Click the photo for the details.)











Thank you, thank you all, for sweetening a difficult time.

I hope you are feeling better. I know getting so many nice goodies would do it for me, so hopefully it's helping you too.

Carol's yarn is amazing. Always.
