I don’t know which is MORE EXCELLENT. But $1.97 for all those needles is CRAZY AWESOME.

Ohmygosh! Wonderful dragon!!!

And that needle collection…wow. Now you can have 39 works in progress going at once! (er…maybe not)

No problem, Rob. I admit, I love the word schadenfreude and try to use it whenever I can. But it’s only fair to then also use its opposite as much as possible too!

And Marsha, although the costume is super-cool, I am pretty amazed by your circular find. :-)

@Katie: No costume changes this year. Sylvia’s still planning to be Kiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiki%27s_delivery_service). She informed me the other day that I have to dress up as Jiji. Hmmm.

I know all of those enthusiastic comments are mostly about the costume, right? :) Truly, I wish there was a grown-up size on the rack next to it, ’cause I SO would have bought it.

Thank you for teaching me the word “mudita”, Imperiatrix. :-)

That is an AWESOME thrift store find!!!! Those needles go for at least 6 bucks a piece! Woo Hoo. The dragon costume is so adorable too.
