I head off to the balmy island breezes and leave you with...miserable and cold northern climes and, you know...Victor being a putz... Don't forget to show some love to our February Incentive-Giver, Jennie Lanners of ceramicist fame. Checkout Interweave's Beading Daily as well as their new book, Simply Modern Jewelry: Designs from the Editor of Stringing Magazine, by Danielle Fox. And most importantly! Congrats to Alicia of Stone Mountain, GA! Yay you! Yay CheekyRedHead!

Updates on the surgery can be found on the MamaOKnits blog. Thank you SO much for all your support!
