Vegas without Knits

I am back from Vegas, without having cast on for my new project and without getting rid of my "whatever makes me hack and cough and not breathe" thing I have. Being under the weather did not help liven things up for sure, but I still managed to make it to see the big Cirque du Soleil production K À.

The Mandalay Bay at a beautiful french restaurant called Fleur de Lys. Chef Hubert is amazing. Despite the smaller portions, everything added up to a perfectly filling meal with tones of taste. I started my meal with the chilled oysters with champagne on top. The main course was filet mignon with lobster tails and a whipped potato that was as smooth as cream. For dessert, I chose the cheese plate along with jellies and honey comb. Perfect! Trust me. Since I don't have any knit pics, I'll give you a photo laden post of my trip.

The Bedroom with Sitting Area overlooking the pool

The entrance at the Venetian

After a tough day on the tables...lol...naah, just pooped!

The suite was over 1200 square feet with four flat screen tvs (bar area, living room, bedroom, & bathroom), a sitting area in the bedroom, a jacuzzi tub, and two separate bathrooms. If I could even have that kind of set-up in a condo to purchase in San Diego - I'd be happy! lol

So....about the bf. He's the guy that I mentioned a while back. We had a date and have been seeing each other ever since. I'll keep you posted...

Frogged Again!!!!

I am soooo bummed. I tried on my tube toporini and it just doesn't look nice on me. I'm not sure what it is, but instead of finishing it up for FOs sake, I've frogged. This is the second project in a row and with the same cottonease yarn. I'm heading to Vegas with my BF tonight for the weekend and have packed a new project that I hope I'll only get a chance to work on at the airport and on the short flight. The fact that I'm under the weather is even putting a damper on my trip. A bunch of meds later, I hope I'll be feeling good by tomorrow morning. Back to knitting....my new project is from Ella Rae - Book Seven. It's called Fusion and calls for Ella Rae Shibu which I ordered from elann.com. Please send out some good knitting vibes my way - I need to have a positive FO and I mean stat! I'll try to take some Vegas pics to post on Monday.
