What does my pie say about me?

This is a photo of the traditional coconut cream pie that we all enjoyed on Thanksgiving Day.

Dinner was at the Colonial Inn near Ligonier, Pennsylvania.

I have found (so far) that restaurants in Pennsylvania can be counted on to have coconut cream pie on the menu.  Alas, this is not so closer to home. But I will keep looking.

BUT – Look here on BuzzFeed to find out about your favorite pie is saying about you.

What am I knitting?

October 10, 2013

I know, the title of this blog is Gunsmoke and KNITTING and I have not posted much on either subject lately.

This one, however, is about knitting.  I recently traveled to Pittsburgh to see my brother and other things.  My brother lives in Ligonier, PA.  Ligonier is really a charming town with a lot of little shops – including Bo Peep Fine Yarns.  I had to stop there.

So this is the sock yarn I purchased there:

And I bought this yarn because it was pretty and sparkly.  I don’t know what I am going to do with it, but would appreciate any suggestions:

More yarn shop – They are winding my sock yarn into a ball here.
