only_lovers_left_alive_ver7

This movie isn’t going to set any land speed records, but man, is it captivating.  Everything is gorgeous, the actors, the sets, the music.  Swinton and Hiddleston are completely captivating as two halves of a love affair spanning centuries.

Cost: free from library
Where watched: at home.

Hunger Games Sweater completed. Again.

IMG_4403

When I finished my Hunger Games Sweater, (Properly known as the District 12 Cowl)I took it to school to show my colleague, who had been receiving updates throughout the knitting process.  She loved it and expressed sentiments that she wished her mother would knit her one instead of something for the baby. (She’s due very soon.)  Being the kind of girl who completely understands those sentiments, I opted to make her something, instead of something for the baby.  Another colleauge funded the yarn purchase and I provided the knitting.  And I hope she enjoys her new sweater.  (I also hope it fits.)
