I went home this weekend and my mom proudly told me about how, when she found out knitting needles weren’t allowed on a plane, she decided to modify chopsticks instead. Not going to let rules against sharp objects get in the way of her in-flight activities.

    Great idea! Also, I'm totally digging the psychedelic yarn.

    Actually, knitting needles are allowed; I do it all the time. However, that does not discount the ingenuity. It's something my sister would recommend and she's 2nd gen like me. And happy to be so. Once we wanted to play bocce but didn't have a set so contemplated using rocks.

     When you hear the purase prom dress they often think of some tattered, cheap prom dresses fabric held together with safety pins promoted as a prom dress gown. But some of the best prom dresses available are those only a few years old, such as the 2011 prom dresses or 2012 prom dress styles.
