Holy Potluck Picnic, Batman!
I'm throwing up the knit signal, courtesy of my buddy, The Bookish Girl, to make sure you all know about the bloggers potluck picnic gathering at New Hampshire Sheep & Wool this coming Saturday.
Remembering what a great time we had when Cate organized one for Connecticut, I asked her if we could do it again. We strong armed Kellee into helping us organize and Julia offered up her advice on a spot. So, if you're interested, please meet up at Noon and bring some food to share with everyone. If the weather is fine we'll gather on the patch of grass between the dog trials area and the main festival. And if the weather is inclement (NO!NO!) then we'll meet at the covered picnic tables by the alpacas. Hope to see many of you there!
And, as further proof that the weather is crap and I can't take picture of flowers or knitting outside or nothing, I'm jumping on the quiz bandwagon.
Take MY Quiz
It was fun creating this, I can't wait to see the results!

That is a GREAT logo. (When I first saw it, in my sleey haze, I thought it was a bagel with a pair of knitting needles in it. I've gotta get to Dunkin Donuts this morning...) Looking forward to finally meet you in person wtih your celebrity husband! (You'll recognize me as the love child of Billy Bob Thornton and Pee Wee Herman.)

Can't wait!

See you then. I'm bringing a quiche-like thing. :)

I'll probably see you there! I just got the okay from Mr. Phil, so we'll be trekking up to touch the fleece saturday. I decided after the Connecticut show there was a lot that might entertain him as well. Besides, after the Kittery Fishing Expo, I figure he owes me big-time! Turkey and honeymustard wraps anyone?

I must be clicking that link wrong - when I try to take your quiz, the link takes me to an administrative site - the one where you cut & paste the html to insert it onto your page.
(not that I would have done all that well on your quiz anyway)
I hope you guys have nice weather this weekend - it is supposed to be lousy around here.

Okay took the quiz (not easy for someone with a horrible memory like me) and now I'm late for work ;o) I didn't do as bad as I expected, but I found out that I only know you half as well as I thought I did *grin*
See you Saturday (hopefully)! :o)

I still can't believe that I know about all of you and this kinda stuff AFTER I move away from NH.
*sigh*

Oh, I wish I was going. I don't think it would be good for my wallet to go to 3 fiber festivals in a row though! ;) Have fun!

So sad I can't make it :-(
Posted by: Kate at May 11, 2006 9:23 AM
I get warm fuzzies every time I see that signal! I'll be there dude.
Posted by: Bookish Wendy at May 11, 2006 9:57 AM
Oh, have fun... I love that signal!

I didn't do so great on the quiz. Have you seen the weather forecast lately? Be on the lookout for animals in pairs. Sigh. I am still pouting cuz I can't go. (And the fact that the forecast basically says "rain until further notice" does not improve my mood.)

Have a blast at New Hampshire S & W ... I;m sure there will be much laughter and lots of yarns.
Great "Knitman" signal.. :-)

I love the bat signal!
I suck, by the way. I pretty much failed your quiz. I had better luck guessing on Cara's yesterday.
Posted by: Snow at May 11, 2006 10:36 AM
Hey, that was a fun quiz! I didn't too bad given that I haven't been a long time reader of yours! Yeah!

OMG... I so sucked rocks on your quiz. Sheesh. I have no memory anymore. Will you still like me even though I failed your quiz?
Posted by: Kathy at May 11, 2006 1:13 PM
Ok I sucked too! 3 out of 10, yikes!! Perhaps you need to be more obvious with your facts hun? Well I totally stole this from you anyway! :)
Have an amazing time Saturday!
Posted by: Debi at May 11, 2006 1:31 PM
i will try to meet up with you guys! looking forward to it.
Posted by: Dharia at May 11, 2006 3:53 PM
Damn, 3 out of 10. I really thought I'd rock this one.
I'm still using my reverse psychology on the weather and predicting rain. But it rained last year and it was still fun!

Hi, first comment but I'm going to try to come as well, I'm glad someone's organizing something ;-)
Posted by: suegene at May 11, 2006 3:57 PM
yup, i sucked at the quiz but they sure are fun.
Posted by: Kathleen at May 11, 2006 6:08 PM
The blogger's potluck sounds like amazing fun! Can't wait to hear all about it!
Posted by: Susan at May 11, 2006 7:38 PM
Thanks for organizing the picnic. I'm planning on bringing pasta salad - fusilli with homemade pesto, and veggies which match. My quiz score did not suck (50!), much to my great surprise.
Posted by: Suzanne at May 11, 2006 8:15 PM
Can it be Saturday now, please? Please? Sigh...
See you soon! :)
And btw - I SUCKED at your quiz.
Posted by: elisa at May 11, 2006 8:36 PM
Waaahhh! I can't go to the potluck. I'll be in my booth. Pretty please - stop and say hi??
Posted by: Chris at May 12, 2006 7:28 AM
Shoot, I'm on the other side of the country and will miss the party. Have a great time.
Posted by: Birdsong at May 13, 2006 12:48 AM
Ok, I sort of sucked on your quiz. BUT, I totally knew Grey Goose Martini. YEAH BABY!
