A Happy Christmas Message

Here's a little giftie for all my favorite knitters (that would be you - yes, just you - no one else...)

I ripped it from the movie Miss Potter, which was lent to me by Kathe at KnitWitz.

I watched in my hotel room night before last, and it was a WONDERFUL movie (two thumbs up - waaaay up) Or, as Mick La Salle at the San Fran Chronicle said, "A Beautiful and Enchanting Movie" Yes it's very, very good and I'm glad I watched it.

Unfortunately, I found myself dissolving into tears - I didn't realize that Beatrix lost her love suddenly through illness - that was a shocker.

Begin alone in hotel rooms makes me more weepy.

And there I was, running to the tiny bottle of Bailey's Irish Cream I keep for such an emergency.

So enjoy - and keep your Bailey's dry.

It was a lovely movie and is one of my favorites. I, too, was moved to tears.

I hope Gerry, Hannah, and Max are all doing well. Enjoy your time at home and have a wonderful holiday!

I had wanted to see that movie when it came out but, if it was at our local theatre at all, it was for a week & I missed it. I'm gonna go buy it right now! (Actually, I meant to get it for one of my daughters for Christmas - she's a huge Beatrix Potter fan.)

I love "Miss Potter". It's one of my "watch over and over especially when I need to feel good" movies.

We loved the movie in the theater and now own it. Thanks for the "giftie". It made me laugh. Hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season and an even better new year!

About Christmas, I ordered the "Twist and Loop" book for my 15 y.o. granddaughter. She has decided she hates to knit but likes to crochet and is a fashionista so I hope she likes it.
