knitting for the aged

I. want. to. knit.

No seriously, I really feel like knitting. I ran out of wool for a baby sweater that I haven't worked on for weeks, for exactly that reason.

I'm tired of wearing this beanie that I knitted about four years ago, and I have this absolutely wonderful ball of wool at home and a beret pattern, but it's so faaar awaaay... I just want to knit. I'm starting to have wool fantasies.

Thankfully I am going home soon. This weekend, in fact.

I'm really glad to be home on Shavuot. Having two consecutive Shabbatot in a row, in res, would be torture. Whoohoo, no torture for me, thanks. :)

I want to bake chocolate cheesecake. The last time, and also the first time, that I made chocolate cheesecake, was on my sixteenth birthday. It was gooood. It was so rich that I haven't felt like making it again till now. Two and a half years later.  Somehow being eighteen seems young old at once very young and very old.

I should go do something constructive. Other than knitting. Like studying or something. There's an idea.
