Really? Another hobby?

woohoo! it's the weekend! it doesn't feel like it's been that long of a week though. the main thing i've been working on this week is my latch hook rug. my goal is to get it done so i can post it on the finish what you have flickr pool .
oh and i've picked yet another thing to become obsessed about....canning and preserving! actually this i've been turning around in my head for awhile. ever since i saw them can pickles on creative juice. it just looks like so much fun! canning and preserving. yeah...i want to learn how to do that next. if only i had a yard so i could grow my own veggies. i want a garden!
i think i'm going through my "i'm tired of this city" phase again. it happens every few months. i start to wish i had a house. and a yard. and more peace and quiet. like right now....i hear sirens and car alarms outside my window. plus we live really close to the airport...so yeah...add planes flying overhead. well..maybe someday. but that's no excuse to not give canning a try! at least i have access to the farmers market in union square and the chelsea market. that's where rachael ray shops! so maybe my next big purchase will be a pressure canner.
