I would apologize for the gratuitous post title...except that it's not gratuitous! "Pair of blue tits pin" is exactly how this charming bauble is described in the catalog I received in the mail yesterday. OK, so I'm aware that the Brits call them tits, while we call them titmice, or chickadees, but "pair of..."? I'm so glad I didn't follow my first impulse and chuck the catalog in the recycle bin immediately; instead I opened it to a random page and got my chuckle for the day. Two chuckles, in fact--check out the $$! ($6600, in case you can't read the small print.)
Back to posting about knitting tomorrow.
