This has already started to be one of the hottest year's on record, not just here on the east coast but all over the Globe, India, Australia, Brazil, Eastern Europe and Asia. So we are trying our best to stay as cool as possible. We finally got some rain on Saturday. The grasses and plants could sure use it. It has started to rain just now as I am writing this post. YaY!
Last Thursday we made our first visit to The Manning's in Bristol Pennsylvania. Only about 2 hours away. We went up early in the morning. Our good friends Jana and Diane are going to be leaving the area, so we thought this would be a great way to spend time together before they leave us. We made a stop at The Woolstock Yarn Shop in Glyndon, Md on the way home. It is a cute shop with lots of yarn and they carry a large selection of koigu. The highlight of our trip was Sydney's Restaurant, located right down the road from The Manning's. The food was gourmet and quite delicious. Definitely worth the trip.
Okay not to much at once here. I will tell you that we are having a blogiversay coming up soon and there will be giveaways(Woolmeise) so stay tuned about that in a up coming post. We decided that our yarn stash is starting to get out of hand, so why not share it ♥ Happy Summer~

grounds of the Manning's
As always there are move photos on Flickr
that you can check out.
Have a great week. I hope you get to do something you Love♥
Update: I just found out that Carol over @ Meir Cat, Chats and Fiber video taped a portion of our Sit and Knit Celebration. She has a very cool blog that warrants checking out. I always look forward to reading and seeing what she is up to, whether it's about her crochet skills, or her 3 adorable cats, Jake, Maus & Moshe'. She has a great sense of humor and is the best writer I know♥

Just found your blog and am looking forward to more posts, learning to knit and enjoyed your writing, and sense of family. Thank you.
Always good to here from you ladies. Seems like you all have been having a wonderful summer. I'm also trying to cut down on yarn purchases. Especially after the Stitches haul.
Yeah, you two have returned ! I see you had a great time on your road trip and that dessert is lovely !

Happy Summer to you too and Happy Belated Birthday. Looks like fun was had by all and your dessert looks interesting and I'm sure it was delicious.
I just love The Mannings. That's where I bought the yarn for the fair isle sweater I made. It's on Ravelry. A girl could go mad in that store! Liz
I miss you all soooo much!
Awwww. we had a ball at The Manning's. It was a great way to spend a summer afternoon. I enjoyed Sydneys too and the shops we visited on our way out.
Big ups to Dianne for making our trip to woolstock work.

Hey! You enabler! Thanks for the info on the new yarn shop near Duppont Circle! Now, I suppose I have no excuse not to be able to buy yarn or needles or patterns.
