Sock Wars II, the 411

Wow! I am getting tons of hits about sock wars from my post about last year's event. This year I participated but didn't even post about it. I'll post my death socks soon (I didn't win, but I lasted pretty long in the competition).

Apparently the Wall Street Journal picked up the story and published it on the front page of their website which, of course, has stirred up interest. You can check out the article here.

If you are interested more information about Sock Wars, you can join the Yahoo Group to be put on the notification list for the next tournament in the Spring. I do not have any additional information, nor am I the moderator or group organizer.

I received my Sur la Table catalog last week and it is completely dog-eared now that I have marked it all up with the things I want. But what caught my eye the most are these Italian Ottimista/Pessimista wine glasses. I think these would make a great gift with a good bottle of wine. They are perfect for me because I hate stemware.
