New Banner

January 19, 2004

What do you think? Too busy? Nice rainbows? (Those are Italian Pace flags — I was lucky enough to catch a Venetian peace march last March.)

I can’t decide. Too sleepy to do so. You tell me what your opinion is. Pah-leez?

    I love the fact that someone in the red boat looks like they are having a fit of the vapours :0)whilst another member of the crew seems to be holding their hand on their heart in supplication. I like the banner especially as it look cold as only Venice can be in March and makes me thankful I walk by water each day not have to boat on it. Clever is also a word that comes to mind but also Sleep – you do need some you know :0)

    I like your new banner too — very colorful! But what I love best of all is your picture of the Venice Ladies – when I saw they weren’t in their ususal spot (not realizing you had moved them to the right hand column) I thought, “oh, no!”. Banners come and go, but Venice Ladies should always remain.

    It’s awesome. I’ve seen a couple of those flags up in windows in my neighborhood, or at least the old Italian part of it. Nice when you can walk by a walk-up with a Pace flag right next to a house with a shrine to Mary.
    I read a good review of The L Word in Entertainment Weekly–said much the same as you, although thought the opening credits were a bit much, with all the various l-words OTHER than lesbian flashing on the screen…is it true that “limpid” is one of them? Because that’s pretty funny.

    Oh, please leave it! This is probably the closest that I will get get to Venice for quite some time…At least I can look it when I visit your blog every day! ๐Ÿ™‚ And, by the way, I really do love visiting your blog every day to see the beautiful pieces that you are making and to read the interesting/fun things that you are saying…

    I love! Keep it. I love the PACE flag. There was one hung on my way to work this summer and I smiled everyday when I saw it!

    I say Hurrah for anything Italian. Of course it just makes me miss it all the more, but oh well! =)

    Viva la pace! Colorful and good, my friend. Let’s keep it up there. OH, and what’s the yarn on that thing Beth’s not supposed to look at?

    Love the new banner. And temptress that you are, I’ve bought the rogue pattern, even though I will have no time to knit it until probably summer. Sigh.
