I’ve always thought it was interesting that we have Martin Luther King‘s birthday as a federal holiday, but no standard way to celebrate. There are quiet memorials in many places, yesterday many church sermons focused on the message of peace and civil rights, someone somewhere is reading “I Have a Dream.” This year, I am eating peach cobbler. Dr. King was a native Atlantan after all.

welcome
Welcome to Blogland and the Alabama Knitbloggers list, Heather!
You Bet
Michael wanted to do a baby pool (pink/blue and the date) from the beginning, but we talked ourselves out of it. Teyani has talked us back into it.
He’s decided to handle bets by email (which I suspect might be a mistake). Visit his post (here) to see the details. Basically: email Michael (ivey at gweezlebur dot com) with the subject line “Baby Pool,” your pick for pink or blue, your pick for a date (the official due date is in the middle of February), and whether you would prefer Regular (for non-knitters) or Extra Fiber as far as prizes are concerned. To win the Grand Prize, you’ve got to get both pink/blue and the date. It looks like there will be a smaller prize for just getting the date right (if you are only right about pink/blue, you will receive the good feeling that you get from a well-made guess). Multiple right answers will be entered into a drawing.
One guess per individual, please, so choose wisely! The book will close on February 8, 2008.
