    @laimelde Awww, that sucks! Sorry to hear it.


    DAMMIT. Just saw on Facebook that some girl has successfully eaten Mad Mex’s 1kg burrito. Sad that it wasn’t me.


    @AusVintageGrrl Because I wanted the glory all for myself!


    Realised as I was getting dressed after lunchtime run that I’ve been wearing my own handknit jumper BACKWARDS all day.


    @Lauren_lolly_ Road to Golden. Only noticed because I suddenly realised the start-of-round jog was visible on my right shoulder raglan seam!


    @carbolicious Yep. I need to get some of those little tags made up. MADE WITH LOVE BY CRAZY CRAFT SISTERS, amirite?


    Damn. Lost the Food Connect recipe contest to an okra dish. OKRA. How did they get 29 people to like a friggin’ OKRA recipe??


    @DDsD I tried. Just felt dirty doing too much spamming to get folks to vote. AND THAT’S HOW YOU LOSE TO OKRA, I GUESS.


    @carbolicious @imdominating You can pitch it as “Harry and the Hendersons” meets “Twilight.” HIGH CONCEPT MOVIE GOLD.


    @carbocommander The 30 Rock parody of HatH was one of the best things ever.


    My point was not that okra is the Worst Thing Ever, but rather that it was in no way comparable to my awesome Pumpkin Chili con Carne.


    @imdominating Trying to remember what age I got mine at. I have a feeling it was 5th grade. But I desperately wanted them… 🙂


    RT @Ezzles: May the fourth be with you! // AWESOME!


    @SallyPompom Welcome back! We all missed you.

    @AusVintageGrrl That right there is pretty much why I’m sticking with my iPhone. 🙁


    @imdominating Dude! @carbolicious is makin’ the damn CAKE!


    @codepo8 The Snook agrees with you. 🙂


    @Ezzles Discovered at knit camp on the weekend it happens to many of us. Perhaps UK English language setting?


    How much of the 1st book of Game of Thrones does the 1st episode cover? Snook wants to watch but I want to read it first. Anybody know?


    @stufromoz Yeah, I’ve got it and am currently reading it. Just want to know when to schedule the first episode…


    @wheelyweb I never visit the Twitter website. So, no.


    @wheelyweb Oh, I read lots of Tweets! Just never on the website. I’m not zen; I’m just wedded to TweetDeck. 🙂


    @supercres Awesome, thanks for that. Sounds like we’ll be firing up the first ep tonight then!


    @supercres Bonus points for exactitude! 🙂

    The sun is out, and we are knitting on the wall. Finally it feels like camp! http://twitpic.com/4rnup8 http://twitpic.com/4rnuvv


    I just unlocked the “Healthy Fox” badge on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/iJaqzL


    Home from knit camp. Showered, fed, unpacked. Raging headache from beer-related dehydration tho. My bed is nice. #sleepnow

    Just ran 5K down the mountain. Woo! Now have to run 5K back up. Crap. http://twitpic.com/4r7ogo


    Luckily managed to get hot shower before power went out. Hmm. Good excuse to drink beer before it gets warm! http://twitpic.com/4r8rxa


    The power is out at knitting camp so we’re all out on the porch to catch the light. http://twitpic.com/4r9v91


    “She’s like a ninja… If ninjas wore grey garter stitch.” #quotesfromknitcamp


    Breaking News: We have no hope of power being restored tonight. We are now drinking all the chilled alcohol before it warms.


    Portrait of a Mad Knitter: @randomknits refuses to let a little TOTAL DARKNESS keep her from her intarsia. http://twitpic.com/4rc114


    RT @knitterjp: Singing before dinner #knitcampgong in the dark yes the ukelele come out http://t.co/Wbx5JKu


    Bollywood dinner cancelled due to pouring rain and power outage. Makeup and bling was all I could do! http://twitpic.com/4rdkhm


    Surprisingly great day! The only thing missing – other than the electricity – was @mrs_sockvictim! Didn’t feel the same without you, Fee!

    @cdeagle Click.


    Now I’ve got like 1hr to shower and pack for camp before @knitterjp and the others pick me up! Eeek…


    @knitterjp I’m in the truck and we are heading through King Street! Be there soon.


    Drama! We drove through National Pk and there was a tree down! And we drove under it! And we got to call and report it! (Telstra FTW.)


    Lunch by the sea on a grey, blustery day! (@ Scarborough Hotel) http://4sq.com/iClU0O


    On our way to @drkknits! Hey, where do you live, anyway? 🙂


    @drkknits We found it. There was some confusion with a similarly named street in Gordon, but we’re on the right track now.


    Made it to @drkknits’s house! Yarn-fondling is happening. Coffee and cake are imminent. http://twitpic.com/4qthqz


    @drkknits @randomknits My beer was being delivered by @knitabulous! But more is always good. 🙂


    Realization! We ALL forgot flashlights!! Whoops.


    Knitting Camp WOOOOOO! (@ Mount Keira Scout Camp) http://4sq.com/klIaxZ


    Me and @knitterjp and a whole lotta wool! http://twitpic.com/4qvgcq


    Excellent. A TV has been located in the camp kitchen. (Most of us want to see The Dress.) #winning


    It’s all gone quiet. Everybody at Knitting Camp likes The Dress. Think we’re done with this now. Bring on the beer!


    @Alacaeriel Hahaha… I said the same thing. Everything I know about Anglican wedding ceremonies comes from Jane Austen!


    See? Totally rapt. http://twitpic.com/4qwwxq


    I have strummed my ukelele in front of 20 people. Does that count as a performance? Unfortunately @drkknits is sick and can’t sing. 🙁


    My hipster credentials have suffered a blow. One of the older ladies has a ukelele. Apparently they have a Seniors’ Uke Group in Kiama.


    My sleeping bag must be rated for the North Pole. It’s freezing at camp but I still had to stick my legs out last night to avoid suffocation


    A little bit of city sophistication halfway up a mountain, thanks to @randomknits and @knitabulous. Yum! http://twitpic.com/4r5zn6

    Jeanette Berman raises the “changing your married name” issue and kicks some ass, IMHO. http://bit.ly/iBxtXE


    @imdominating @carbolicious HELL YEAH, NEVILLE. http://gallery.the-leaky-cauldron.org/picture/273698


    @imdominating @carbolicious Yup. I am clicking thorugh 80 high-res screencaps RIGHT NOW. http://bit.ly/mTyqtw


    @imdominating @carbolicious I love how batshit insane HBC looks in every single shot, even when she’s just in the background!


    @chrisgander @thezedmiester I can’t go; I’ll be in the ‘Gong. 🙁


    @randomknits @knitterjp @drkknits @knitabulous I am baking cookies INSIDE other cookies. Wheeee!


    @drkknits YOU ARE DEAD TO ME. PEEPS? AT KNITTING CAMP?


    Like Icarus, I flew too high and close to the sun. My Oreo-Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies are not a success. They are a (tasty) failure.


    @drkknits No time for Krispies, I’m afraid. You’re getting plain peanut butter cookies!


    @gusseting My regular PB cookie dough recipe is much softer, and they spread far too much. Need to adjust it to make it stiffer, I think.


    @knitness @ozquokka @knitabulous I didn’t get an email this year. I just emailed them and asked! Turns out they forgot me. 🙂


    @missamanda That’s awesome! Well done.


    Cookies are baked, and sleeping bag is laundered. That’s enough for tonight.


    Heading to Olympic Park to pick up the Snook’s Hipster Cardigan. Interested to see if that staple I saw in it caused any harm…


    It’s 9:20am, and there are like 20 people in the queue to pick up items. #fml


    Cardy procured. No holes that I can see. Now get me the hell out of here…


    @drkknits Nope. Quite a queue forming though, and lots of cars waiting to get in.

    @sharre Oddly, I don’t think I got mine removed. They just fell out after a couple weeks…?


    In the past month, 59 people have found my blog while searching for “pornographic woodwork.” Thank you Gary Gentle.


    RT @dancingman: Anyone want 2 tix to Bob Dylan TONIGHT? Great seats. HH15 & HH16. Please RT.


    Officially booked the hotel we’re staying in for the marathon in June. Less than 7 weeks to go!


    Can’t tell if I really feel sick, or it’s just because of the co-workers hocking up their lungs nearby. I need a face mask.


    Have recalled that Snook and I actually had to dress Bollywood once before for a wedding. Ready to laugh? http://bit.ly/dUdJUQ


    @Anthony_Mills I believe the look is called “this is what the costume shop gave us.” 🙂


    I was annoyed I was going to miss the Chaser’s royal wedding commentary… but it sucks they cancelled it for EVERYBODY.


    @randomknits Very nice!


    I like the Chaser too, but man, I wouldn’t want somebody snarking and crapping all over my wedding. Snark culture is starting to depress me.


    @devvyleys Ooh, thanks. Haven’t tried that song yet.


    Bollywood earrings, courtesy of Janhavi (@venks79’s missus). She also sent saris with SEQUINS. I feel glamourous! http://twitpic.com/4qap2g


    @drkknits Janhavi sent earrings, necklaces, brooches, bangles… I got extras. 🙂

    @DomesticJules Tweetbot does that. I’m still getting used to the UI, but I like the @ autofill.


    @bezthomas I should’ve taken a photo of their whiteboard with total scones made. I recall it was up over 20,000 at that point…


    I decided to go with the steek. @witty_knitter @randomknits http://twitpic.com/4poozq


    A little worried about how much dark brown the ribbing ate up. Hoping @mrs_sockvictim has a backup ball of Tango 204 just in case!


    @thisismywww I know about it. AFP has been blogging about it for a while. Not watching the feed though. Too busy knitting!


    CBD traffic sucks today. That is all.

    Ugh. I hate these Nutkins. http://twitpic.com/4p5jyd


    Made it to Olympic Park! Just waiting on @randomknits and others. (cc @drkknits @knitabulous)


    @drkknits I don’t know where to go…


    Kylie and I brave the crowds to see giant vegetable displays. @ Sydney Royal Easter Show http://instagr.am/p/DhZk_/


    I have secured 5 seats at the CWA Tea Room. Now for the tricky part: playing defense til @drkknits gets back with the scones! @randomknits


    CWA Devonshire Cream Tea procured! @ Sydney Royal Easter Show http://instagr.am/p/DhbmT/


    @wen1965 Yep. A lot of the stands didn’t open til 11 though.


    Stuffed with scones and lamington. By the time @randomknits @knitabulous & @gilmae get here, I will be in full-on carb coma.


    Enjoying a massage chair demo with @drkknits. Ahhhhh…


    Me and my cardigan with its sad lack of ribbons. @ Sydney Royal Easter Show http://instagr.am/p/Dhmyw/


    Listening as inappropriately dressed little girls gyrate while singing Bieber. @drkknits is appalled. http://twitpic.com/4p8fw8


    I got my Cheese-on-a-Stick. All is right with the world. @ Sydney Royal Easter Show http://instagr.am/p/DhwL4/


    Having a bear-y good time! @ Sydney Royal Easter Show http://instagr.am/p/DhylZ/


    RT @randomknits: Knitters with sticks! http://t.co/VYuSP9a


    @bhmulder I had to have the Snook explain that one to me. 🙂


    @randomknits I reached my Stick Threshold like three hours ago!


    Learned to “chunk” on my uke just now. It makes the Patsy Cline so sound much more *authentic*.


    @imdominating I have it ready to watch, thanks to @gilmae! Need to finish 1st book though. Also, step off. Dinklage is MAH BOYFRIEND.


    My stomach hurts. Hardly surprising, considering the amount of Junk-on-a-Stick I ate today.


    If a cardy only has fairisle at the hem and yoke, would you bother to steek or just go back and forth? Thoughts? @witty_knitter @randomknits


    @randomknits I do too, but there’s not that much of it. (I’m cardigan-izing Paper Dolls, if you want to look it up on Rav.) @witty_knitter

    Pitstop at home 2/3 through mega-long run. First bit was with @mrs_sockvictim; now running to meet @kunaal84. Going well. I CAN DO THIS.


    Massive, massive thanks to @mrs_sockvictim, @kunaal84, & the Snook for helping me with today’s long run. I DID IT! 23 MILES! 37KM! WOOT! 🙂


    @kunaal84 Also, Rodd totally approved of giving you a high-five. Ahem.


    @randomknits The real challenge will be making it to the Show tomorrow… 🙂


    @drkknits @randomknits MEDICINAL cheese on a stick. 🙂


    I know it’s not good for me, but lying prone (on couch and bed) is pretty much all I’ve done since I finished the run.


    @gusseting I showered… but I didn’t have an ice bath. I should’ve. I just couldn’t bear the thought of sitting in the cold!


    Jamie’s 30 Minute Meals #13: Wonky Summer Pasta! http://bit.ly/hI5AGd Would’ve been better if we’d pre-baked the tart cases. #facepalm


    I am sore everywhere. EVERYWHERE.


    @drkknits ANTICIPATION.


    @drkknits That’s TORNADO POTATO! They have it at an Asian takeaway near Central Station. I was underwhelmed.


    Made it to the train! About to head to Easter Show. Legs are working better than expected. 🙂
