I scurried home last night after work to prepare for an unexpected night on the town. Sis-in-law had scored a couple of tickets to
Broadway in Roanoke's Avenue Q and I had to quickly put something Weight Watchers appropriate together to eat and change clothes. The food had been percolating in my mind all day, and turned out well (only 4 points for a mix of diced turkey kielbasa, brown rice,
Stoplight Peppers, scallions, Yoshida Sauce (1 Tbls) all sauteed in a non-fat cooking sprayed pan till cooked through (all total, probably 5 minutes or so). I added in a serving of cooked fresh spinach (YUM!) from the CSA share, and a dessert of Pumpkin Fluff (1 point!). A SKINNY meal...
The clothes were another matter. I tend not to dress up much these days (which I suppose could change if I manage to lose a lot of weight, but for now...not so much). So I figured the base would be black jeans. I ended up with the following for accessories:

The Hollyberry Queen of Hearts Shawl, my STR Mustang Sally Knotty Gloves, and one of two of my evening
Kerri bags. I knew I wanted to also wear my STR Mustang Sally
Spiraluscious. Went thru a couple of tops and this is what I decided on:

Just a simple black T.
After that? It was just a quick swipe with the lipstick, toss on the black swing coat, throw the shawl over my shoulders and dash out the door.
A night on the town for Knitnana (aka
Nana Sadie Rose) in handknits! Whoohoo!

Lovely, inspired!
Add a holiday pin and you can revive the outfit for Christmas open house/caroling/you name it in December.
So, did you have a good time? How was the theater?
