FO!!!!!

Hello on this mahi mahi Sunday!

I feel like it's been forever since I've actually finished something.  Now that they are done and blocked, may I present Yoga Socks #1:

Yes - I had originally intended to make 2 pair before the 2021 holidays.  At this rate, I'll be right on schedule to have 2 pair ready for the 2022 holidays! (The colors look a bit washed-out in this photo - they are much brighter in reality.)

In other news - OH needed to plow some large paths in the snow so the professional tree guys could get to their victims (they were scheduled to come in March but they had an opening - hey, they're the ones getting cold and facing danger, they can come as early as they'd like!).  The tree parts worked out great, and now Daisy thinks these paths are just for her! 

Stay safe and well :)

From the author’s web site : "As usual, I am interested in the people, their interactions and the social effects that poisons have had, as well as the science. There is an exquisite beauty in the way tetrodotoxin is made harmless to its hosts, the way a wasp moth vomits over its mate, or the way a mongoose withstands the venom of the cobra. To me, these are things worth exploring, so I do. " In his book, Macinnis endeavors to describe poisonous compounds and their science, relate which historical figures are implicated in the use of these poisons, and document how these poisons are referred to literature. He then attempts to weave all of these aspects together. Macinnis does indeed attempt to cover aspects of science, people, and all the history inbetween, but he does not seem quite able to cover everything in a consistent, coherent way. I think there is just to
