It is the beginning of my new project, which takes a lot of yarn. 
Twenty balls, to be exact.  I am using color 24, green, same as the pattern calls for.   
Debbie Bliss's Ruby. I started last night, haven't made much progress, but am just so happy to be working on size 8 needles.   The only other person I have seen out there making this is Rebecca over at poshyarns.  Ravelry only has Rebecca listed, also.  Anyone seen it?

This weeks cookie:  Mexican Wedding Cookies.
The recipe comes from a bakery in Florida that shared the recipe and is no longer in business. 

1 cup butter :: 1/2 cup powdered sugar, plus more for sprinkling :: 2 tsp water :: 2 tsp vanilla :: 1/4 tsp salt :: 2 cups flour :: 1 cup chopped pecans (do not chop too fine,  lean on the larger side) Makes 12 cookies.  Only,12!

Bake at 325 for 20 minutes.  Immediately sprinkle with powdered sugar.

**Hide from kids, so there are more for you. Pull out dough from the freezer and bake those for them.**

My mother, sisters and I would have these in the morning with coffee and knitting.  It really makes for a beautiful morning.

Enjoy  your weekend!
