We visited a farm last month -- the sheep bells were mesmerizing.

Pillaging

Many kind people conspired behind my back for many months, plotting, and my own husband embezzeled money through his "lunch budget" to give me a very special birthday. My husband finally broke down and told me the plan a week before because he was afraid I would agree to work extra hours at my new job that would conflict with his plans.

As vikings of old, we sailed the salty southern sea to trade with and pillage from the lands of the south.

We took an overnight cruise to Copenhagen and spent 1.5 days there. The first day went like this: breakfast on the boat, walking and shopping in the center, pastries around 11, visit a yarn store, check in at the crazy hotel, visit another yarn store, pizza at an outdoor cafe, more shopping, brewery tour and beer tasting (yes I enjoyed this), dinner at a very nice organic restaurant at the old port, and a leisurely late night stroll home.

The highlight was the second yarn store. I can't believe I didn't take a business card or note the name -- maybe I can find the receipt later. It had a large array of beautiful Danish yarn -- it's the brown and pink hanks below the Noro in that bag.
