Quilt Fail

Blah, I tried to make a baby quilt, but it was a bit of a failure. Everything is off (Although the only reason it looks lumpy in the picture is because I haven't straightened out the batting).

Crochet Fail

Apparently I should have stuck to crocheting scarves for a little while. I had hat failure.

I took a stab at making the Lush Angora Crochet Cap (sans the angora, which makes me itch). Things didn't start off well when I realized I didn't have the right size crochet hook (needed a 5.5 mm, had a 6mm), but I kept on trucking. And this was the result:



Don't know that I mentioned it before, but I dyed my hair darker. The hat was a bit of a disaster, the stitch pattern is all fudged up. The color doesn't help; I feel like Kermit the Frog.

And because the first picture was a bit mean looking:



Still haven't decided between the Kindle and Nook. Although I appreciate your votes. Kindle is currently in the lead.

Kindle vs. Nook

First, thanks to Carolyn and Phil for your comments. I am still torn between the Kindle and Nook.

Some of the important (for me) pros and cons I have noticed for each include:

Nook (Pros)
Replaceable battery
SD card
Screen (Reading is more comparable to book page)

Nook (Cons)
No Barnes and Noble remotely nearby
Software is still bit slow and buggy

Kindle (Pros)
Book selection
Software more stable
Ability to re-download deleted books

Kindle (Cons)
No memory expansion
No replaceable battery

I am going to give a poll a shot. My primary hangups right now are between the battery and the software. Although I do want to retain that book "feel" when reading, which the Nook seems to offer, I haven't really seen either to know. So, opinions please!
