These are the things that made the drive to Missouri bearable to us all. Cheetoh's for Alice. She held that bag in her lap and it was almost as big as she is. Cherry Coke for me. Somedays I'd like to just hook up an IV. Mmmm...I love a good cherry coke from the fountain with lots of ice. The teletubbies were for Liam. We could get at least 45 minutes to an hour of semi quite time out a Teletubbie dvd. Poor little guy. He hates the car on a regular day, let alone when we are in it all day.

On Thursday I made it down to The Studio and picked up the makings for a little swirl hat. I couldn't resist the mint chocolate swirly cuteness. I'm planning on making a couple of these for Kaps for Kendall and I've already started one for Alice out of Nashua Cilantro. You can see in the picture below that I am knitting on it while on a walk with my family. My cousin thought that this was so funny, he had to take a picture of it. You can also see a closeup of my new haircut in that shot. (click here for the closeup) I've got a big day planned today with RayLynn...we're making the rounds of all my favorite places in Kansas City. More on that later!

Cute hair! I love it! It looks so great on you too!!!!! Love it, love it, love it!!
Your hat is too cute!
Have fun this holiday weekend!

Posted by: Whit at May 25, 2007 09:52 AMStacey~very cute little hat. I am making a little pink number. Where do I send it and when is it "due"? Kindly drop me an email or leave it on my blog. Nice haircut, and I like your necklace!
Posted by: julie at May 25, 2007 09:56 AMLittle Rage is all about the Cheetos right now too. I think his fingers will be permanently orange from that stuff.
Teletubbies--I remember the days. Now it's Spongebob and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends on our car trips.
That's a cute hat; have a great visit!
Posted by: Kim at May 25, 2007 10:06 AMi would have taken a picture of that too...tee hee...stacey kip.
Posted by: cristina at May 25, 2007 10:07 AMMmm cherry coke. When they don't have it, I mix diet coke with dr. pepper. Would that make it prune coke?

I am SO driving to the grocery store today!

Cute swirl hat. In those colors it makes me think of a cactus in a terra cotta pot! It was good to see you last night.
