Black Friday

November 27, 2009

We’ve never been big ‘shoppers’, so Black Friday is pretty much a non-event for us. So instead of shopping, we’re eating! This morning my Mom took Sister and I out for brunch and we walked right past a yarn store. Never knew it was there! Of course, I’ve only lived here for 5 months and know of 2 really great yarn shops in Denver. Thus no need to search for a new shop. BUT Stash is super cute and super close.

Upon walking in, the owner saw Miles’ hat and asked if I knitted it – I said yes! Then she saw the diaper bag on Sister’s shoulder and asked if I made that too.

On the entry table, there was a sample scarf we admired. Crystal, the shop owner, told us how easy it knitted and Sister and I were left thinking “Gifts!” We picked out three different colors for three different friends. More to follow…

::The Name::

Five Baht Elephant. My mother is from Thailand, where elephants are royal animals. Growing up Mom would tell us to save our pennies, "in case a man came to our door selling elephants." At the time we thought it was the most absurd thing ever. Now I realize it was the Thai version of saving for a rainy day. Lets hope that we can buy an elephant for only five baht!
