Alpacas and tomatoes
As I twittered yesterday, Dennis & I went out and about on a couple of errands yesterday. We went back to the farmer who we had bought those tremendous tomato plants last year. You know the ones, they grew about 5 feet tall and 4 feet wide and gave us tomatoes well past the first frost. You remember:
That’s about a third of what we planted…
See here, here and here for the whining and photos.
So we picked up some new plants and then took the scenic route home. We went through Vermillion, Ohio and lo and behold, right there in downtown, an alpaca shop! Who knew? We went in and came out with – alpaca. No, not the animal, just some roving. AND, it was 20% off my entire order.
Tried spinning it last night. It went okay. I did some internet research, and as always, came up with inconsistent information. Spin fast, spin slow, overtwist, not too much twist. Sigh. I’ll just have to play with it and see.
