It has been the busiest of weekends, Jenna, Erin and Caiden had a Sea Scout and Cub canoe polo match on Sunday and went to practice on Friday night and Saturday. Caiden scored two goals, the seniors came first the juniors came second, so wonderful! I managed to also do some book work on Sunday and designed a pattern for a South African Meerkat. This pattern will be going into my book, I am enjoying the book writing process very much:)
Erin has been making seed pictures with cold glue and various seeds. She just drew a picture on a piece of card, drew over the pencil with cold glue and added various seeds, she loved doing this.
Help!
I have been trying to add the ’embedded comments’ feature to my blog so that I can reply to everyones’ comments as they come in, I have managed to add this by changing comments to ’embedded comments’ on Blogger, but when I click on ‘reply’ to comment, nothing happens. I was wondering if anyone has ever experienced this and perhaps added an ‘html’ code to make it magically work? If you did and succeeded, oh please, please could you let me know how, I have been trying to figure out what to do, but alas, no luck yet…
******Update******
Thank you so much to everyone for their help, the ‘reply’ commenting is working! Just wonderful!
When I did it, I followed online instructions. I didn’t end up coding, but rather changed some of the blogger settings. If you want to go this route, let me know. (Like this: http://www.spiceupyourblog.com/2012/01/threaded-comment-replies-blogger-blogs.html )
Love the meerkat! And my husband recently received a kayak. He is loving it and we want to eventually outfit the family.
Thank you so much, it’s working.
I am so happy!

I didn’t know you were writing a book Linda! How exciting and wise of you as you have so much talent to share! I can not wait!
PS-The meerkat is adorable!
Proud Mama,
Thanks so much, I will go and have a look, I think it has something to do with my template. It isn’t a standard template, I have altered it.
Thanks about the Meerkat:)
Natalie,
Thanks so much:)
I also did not realize you were writing a book. I can’t wait to see it. The meerkat is fantastic. I want one…or three. I guess I will have to wait for the book.
Thanks for sharing.
Tracey and Natalie,
Thanks so much!
Yes, I am writing a knitting pattern book of African animals, it will be published this year. I am really enjoying designing all the new patterns:)
Linda, my friend, I just can’t wait for that book of yours to be published. I would just love a signed copy to treasure…All the best with completing your book. The meerkat is just perfect. Noah adores meerkats so very much.
Amazing meerkat…..love it! Can’t wait for the book.
My favorite exhibit at the San Diego Zoo is the meers! They also love my umbrella and follow me back and forth – and when people are taking pictures they ask me to ‘over here’! So I go over there and the meers follow me. Soooooo cute.
Wish I could make one of these – you’ve captured the look to a T.

Your Meercat is adorable, Linda. Looks like a fun weekend.
Oh me oh my – the meerkat!! My husband loves meerkats and that pattern is so perfect! You always come up with the best ones <3
I soooo can not wait until your book comes out. I’ve been looking forward to it ever since you first mentioned it awhile ago. Your Meerkat like all of your other patterns is just adorable. You, are brilliant!
Good job on figuring out the ‘reply’ thing. I’ve been wanting to do the same but haven’t figured it out so well done!
Looks like you have all been having lots of fun 🙂 And your meerkat is so cute!!
Very cool Meerkat – his expression is perfect. He really looks like he’s just heard something and he’s paying close attention!
