Milestone!
No contest though. Not yet!
Surprise!!!
Yes, that’s the person behind this blog.

One thing I’m not quite comfortable revealing is my real name. So, I’m simply Yarn Hungry [...]

After Port Orford, we headed straight down to Gold Beach in time to book a room at Jot’s Resort. Every time we go to Gold Beach, we always stay at Jot’s Resort. The whole property overlooks the Rogue River on its way out to sea. I always associate Gold Beach and Rogue River for its [...]

The last couple of days of summer found me and my hubby at the South coast of Oregon. Just came back from an overnight trip there. It’s been awhile since we have hit the South coast. It’s always been to the north. Not sure why. Oregon coast, from Brookings at the very Southern tip to Astoria at [...]

September is a good month! It’s still warm enough to do outdoor stuffs. And yet, you can tell that autumn is just around the corner. As much as I love summer (sun-deprived as I am), autumn has always been my favorite season.
So why is September a good month? Because of these:

Ongoing obsession.
Pickled Garlic. Not just any old pickled garlic.
HABANERO PICKLED GARLIC!
It would bring tears even to spicy, hot chili pepper-savvy people!
It’s torture to taste buds! But I love it!
If you want to see the heat scale on these hot chili peppers, click here. Habaneros are not even on the top heat scale. HOOO BOY!
Why I Avoid Sock Knitting?

Because:
They’re such quick knit but you have to knit it twice.
Once they are done, they’re more expensive than if you just buy them from the stores. I know, I know. It’s not the same as hand-made.
People I know aren’t into socks, so who should I give them to. (Not you Lampaii!)
