I realize that I haven’t updated my site for awhile which is really not a good thing, partly because there’s no sense in having a website and taking up space on the ‘interweb’ if it’s not going to get used but also because I really wanted to use this site more often to let everyone know what I’ve been up to.  So, to prove that I haven’t been completely idle, I thought I’d put up a few pictures of my recent projects.  Of course, everyone knows about my crocheting:

I’ve also kept up with the sewing too:

And I’m back to the wine making too.  The 2012 Concord grape harvest has finished fermenting and is now bottled.

From looking at the labels on my wines bottles, you might realize that I’ve taken up yet another new hobby.  I’ve been playing around with calligraphy since last summer and even though I definitely need more practice, here are some samples of my work:

Finally, I should probably report that there’s something else that I may start getting into.  Robotics, computers, and DIY everything is really becoming more and more popular.  It’s hard not to get online and ignore some of the amazing projects dreamed up.  I’ve always wanted to learn more about both computers and electronics and Arduino seemed like a good start so I jumped online and bought myself a starter kit.  I’ve slowly been going through the tutorials on the Arduino website so stay tuned for more!
