Puffy Checks Socks update:

I promised to let you know

when I reached the straight foot section

of these socks.

The decrease section on both socks is done,

and I have am halfway to the toe section on my first sock.

It feels like real progress.

Swinging at Grandma's house

Fireball and I did some assembly today

and are now ready to provide some ice cold drinks

at our next family get together.

This is one of the two fruit boards my DIL and I collaborated on

for our Memorial Day and Indy 500 family gathering.

They were a big hit.

We went to our first farmer's market of the season

and were still there when the vendors

started breaking their booths down.

We went out late in search of specific things.

The above items were not found,

but we did find the stores quite free of crowds.

I feel like these socks are coming along like

The Little Engine That Could.

I'm done with the heel flaps

and these adorable little pink heel turns on both socks.

Now I am going to be chugging away

at the gusset decreases for a while,

but I know if I keep chugging, I'll get there.

I'll let you know when I get to the straight foot section.

If you weren't sure,

the picture yesterday shows magnetic water balloons.
