eight they muddle their money but I never happen I've never heard it I had that but I've never had the money okay they're checks and you melt like peanut butter and chocolate together usually the money buddy is that so the traditional already buddy is checks and like peanut butter and chocolate melted and you you know throw it in there and then you roll it in confectioner sugar yeah why I might like sticky and so when you eat these little checks things they're just like a bite full of chocolatey peanut butter there's a nice peak but it's hardest no it's like Oh see - oh it's young I think I mean if you watch Kate Plus 8 he's got a likewise keep was like with me she was crazy she's like ah like bulk sighs not my body have to right now she had all those children I don't think I've ever had my sister-in-law makes something like that what if you go to lay down like the chip I or the bright I'll there's a god we made Chex Mix money and you didn't even know the minute I do not believe you money buddy I care I'm upset with my parents yeah well I grew up my buddies neither well how did you learn no because I went to high school and normal people got stuff and my where is grown up I don't know about it back then ya know I think it's a new earth okay this is an outrage I don't mean abasa me I don't think they were around when we were kids and if they were I could tell you this family no I was lucky if I got like please you were way more luckier oh I know cuz you had like Kara instead of a like no yes here you go sorry Kara batteries are just like chocolate no arable it does not taste like chocolate no it doesn't I would I would be so upset with my parents I mean I was or or how about what we went to show you glad I was like you know only have vanilla seriously we don't know they're safe we're not don't know either please no no that's not true when you're a little trust me I'm older than you no I know but then it was strawberry then maybe chocolate and honestly for the longest time I thought those were the only flavors they have ya know before you could meet when we'd go to Chanel and until like could you read the menu tendency guy this is a local diner near to us we got to test it with Shay Clinton she has a local diner and it's famous for their cheeseburgers and it's seriously stuck in the 1940s yeah so no way it's old and they never redecorated nor did they get new work uniforms but I mean they've updated that they're new but they're older nostalgic yeah yeah no I think they're the original know that I used to work in so I'm not working - yeah but anyway it's super yummy yeah absolutely ice cream flavors and the menu is on the wall how did you not read oh no I knew there was other ice cream flavors I just don't know you could do a milkshake with them cuz i all i knew was your options were chocolate not even you know well we have strawberry chocolate now except to talk yeah cuz we would I would always get a chocolate line cuz that's the best flavor let's be real and I don't even love chocolate the best flavor anyway the point is that she was only allowed to have vanilla and I remember being like oh brother yeah I mean it's like we're talking about like Halloween give your candy away for Halloween yeah that's the kind of this my mom wasn't my mom wasn't like that is she watching sorry tom I love you what Rosa we love you but wow that's wow it's borderline evil it is a little so why would get the candy and then what will you do would give you the candy so it wasn't it was okay they got the candy I did I used to have my grandparents what need a muddy buddy now well we were not raising money no as a Charlie back to this money but you know like those original rice cakes the original brown rice no salt like cardboard yeah that's what I was raised on I don't love them I do every once awhile I get one I go I twitch I feel like I'm back in those days where my mom picking off the salt off my pretzels and throwing away my bag because I couldn't have salted my pretzel oh yeah oh yeah I thought I was bad I couldn't have sugar at cereal but no I well we didn't have a lot of sugar cereal you kidding me

okay oh whatever no no no and I would get juice box next to me was Bridget with her freaking hostess cupcake with the fake white stuff coming out and I was like oh I want that but I was then I was I was the one step up on the sugar scale like in the ladder compared to like they were way down here I would like something about you guys and you know where's my parents and they're from my mom learned it from her mom that's how I think that was that influence yeah and my mom's younger yes Wow so yeah Wow so yeah homemade peanut butter no thank you nobody knows so I won't eat it just because

sightseeing I went we went to New York we saw that the pic store was there I went to pasta with yeah oh we went to Boston I went that wall actually going back to New York I've never been to such a Liberty had only gone like I'm gonna like the ferry around it like long really good couple Nevers well no never stood on the earth that she's on so we did that we went up to the pedestal that was really cool it was emotional I almost actually cried did you climb the crown you know that was booked out till October we were able to get to book it oh yeah you have to book it and you and it's sold yeah okay I may have been up there and I went to the pedestal and that we lucked out we were like there just happened to be like three or whatever four or five tickets whatever it was and we basically just got them last ones but um that was really cool we did that wound to Ground Zero I hadn't been to ground zero since Wow 9/11 like the for 9/11 I've never been there I'm just kinda like anti going there and so would you think I'm going back I like my sister I was wondering if that was where I should go I think you should I think you should because it's impressive and it's really it's really well done and I also feel like it's cool to see people remembering some yeah that I think it was part you know it's profound that what in April and no was it maybe it was December we were there for my cousin's wedding we all went and it's it's pretty me because also it's wintertime it was cold yeah windy and yeah you get that chill in here and there's a lot of cool architecture around it yeah no but at but it's you get profound yeah okay so you know you should go yeah I think feeling it's cold like right there next to it is also that very modernist pizza finnish architect it's like a mall yeah underground mall it looks like kind of skeletal yes like ribs yeah yeah that was really cool we went just checked it out that's there and then also to there's one of the oldest then gillies in that mall to just so we don't mean oh I think we didn't go in in really but there's also Church there like I think George Washington like went to like it's super old and it's like what's good I don't know how many things in that space like between the fires that happen in New York and then also 9/11 9/11 was a big thing so it's kind of like a small little like colonial church you know and that's kind of just still there you know and that was kind of cool just to see something's withstand time you know so that was cool and then we did you know your typical who to the park we went to the Natural History Museum and whatever oh we went to a milk yeah that's it that's like remember name now toasty Christina Tosi is that she's a she's a baker she's yeah by the way they're yummy smells really what up I've never been there yeah it was good so we got they have like she kind of created milk flavored like you know when you have cereal after you're done eating cereal the milk the flavor that cereal leaves in your milk she made ice cream flavors like that international and it's a little different it's its flavored with the corn flake like aftermath you know max was kind of like no hi Griffin was like yes you know so it was kind of like it grew up and grew on me make her feel loved it max it not but anyway it's a good cookies so that's all I did and I went to Boston and I went to DC just recently and while you guys were in New York the MDC yeah okay so tried to get into the African American Museum and that's the newest Smithsonian on there on the in the mall and no lie you have to because all the museums are free um the Smithsonian's you have to pick a time slot for that it's so popular it opened up last year and to this day I've no lie 630 you can start trying to book you get queued into like a call in like an online call in for like let's take camp frame or something literally like like 6:45 every ticket for that day wow he's like it's like almost impossibly did not get in like I tried multiple days like literally it's that popular and it's supposed to be fantastic so so I'm gonna get to do that but I went to the Holocaust Museum you did oh that's incredible I cried that's incredible that's an incredible place I was that was crazy for me that was my first Holocaust my first Holocaust Museum I haven't won in Paris as well yeah that's so but the one in Washington DC this is well done it's really well done yeah yeah yeah it's crazy cuz they make you feel like you're with the way you go through it yes makes you feel like you are part of they have like get up the cars the train cars and but not only that just that the building structure and everything you feel like because how and you also have to get a ticket for that like it and you don't it's like a you don't pay really but to see it you can't just show up it's that popular and it's easier to get to but you basically are walking through with a lot of people and you feel like you are experiencing what they may have to may have they may had that man that rehab they know had because we have had they may have had may have had they may have experienced experience period man oh my gosh was so bad but anyway it was was moving yeah I got to the shoes and shoes yeah yeah and I've seen the shoes before and it's like exhibits like it's like single exhibits but that really was like too much so but it was good and they give you a little booklet yeah they give you of your personal person who you are as a Holocaust either survivor or not they say oh you like have that story you step

it's a good vibes I've worn it I've worn this three separate times because I'm a cold person I have no at once because I'm hot so if I'm in air-conditioning I'm vibrating this pop it on yeah no I am jus very into this no I didn't do buttons I'm not gonna do mine I made up the buttons like Oh nothin it didn't quite to the copper okay it calls for just being open but I felt like I'm adding length to it so idea wanna like yes and you don't need to and if you don't watch it no yeah little detail you don't even need to button it pop it on I'm telling you you don't even need to button it yeah I am oh yeah it's comfy it's cute I I need to talk about mine cuz alright about yours yeah so that is Q badly on you I I love this sweater it looks good on you it looks good on you great collar and specially this is a good color for you do you wear this color I captured that gosh do these that that is exactly yeah here kitty keep it already from the cats well this is mine oh my gosh color color and I stopped under by that color what are you I love it I didn't think about it and my bees lined up a set of those two bees yeah yeah when it's supposed to kind of supposed to stagger and my hubby's did not stagger here and I did not think about it and I you pay I separate for sleeves and I literally was like but you were just I'm gonna keep going and then I was like no my bees and they were fine there but they're okay so here they're fine here but they're not fine here don't sleep okay so here's the thing I stopped yeah because I really was gonna rip back just this part wasn't too much mhm except for I was freaking out about like thinking about where to rip back to I was like I don't want to deal with this I don't wanna deal with this so I was like I was too new off the whatever my psychological issues I had with knitting so I just thought I'm gonna keep going but then I was worried with like what about when I altered like how do I like you could just start alternating now that's you yeah but now I'm worried that that because on the cap it's wrong it's gonna always be wrong down the sleeves no if you don't saying oh no because I'll pick up yeah yeah okay why don't you I just leave that no why don't you just leave this at my house next time maybe together I'll have it fixed for you are you sure yeah yeah because what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna put your sleeve stitches on needles I'm gonna cut your thread know this thread what not that the thread you have holding it yeah you're holders and I'm just gonna rip back just this part yep how are you gonna fix it with it's like how you gonna fix it with isn't this lined up - no yeah it's lined up it's lined up in the back see oh sorry mother that's what I mean and so like now I'm worried like the whole thing is gonna be messed up you just have to tink back a few rows I don't want to that's my problem I don't want to because I didn't want to think back to where the heck do I stop here like I don't know where you stop right here you can see it yep else right there in there great it's right there I don't wanna think it's too much for me right now that's why I put it away honestly and I want to finish the sweater but I'm now I'm thinking about ripping it all out and that's kind of what I think I would end up doing but I'm sorry I can find a knight and then I did the thing is is like why did this happen to me I didn't think overthinking I literally went back to the first set of bees again because that's literally what because it's a spacing thing that's all yeah I had I'm always look and I would I had to let you switch there ya go back well I have to say that's my complaint about this that because I felt like I wasn't overthinking and I didn't know exactly what she just start the B pattern again and I started the beat pattern again and for whatever reason it worked out for the front but not anywhere else and I don't understand why it did that if I was trying to keep so that's questioning to me so I've stopped so now I feel like I want to just rip it out and I don't know if I'll rip it from rip it out I'll go back to it because frankly you're frustrated yeah yeah okay so you think about this while we're podcasting yeah you want me to fix it for you I can't we have to fix all this so it feels like you have to rip back everything I can fix it for you hmm all right well you can decide that's up no you decide that's up to you would you carry on if I fixed it I mean if you yeah I guess so but then I also feel like I just rather just rip it out over you have to decide yeah is more power ya feeling because I know that back to the I'm see like the next time I that you've betrayed me feeling well and it's also that it's already you know like when you put something down for so long you're just kind of like okay not going to think about the pattern man yes and I have to think about like even double think about the pattern okay I might as well just like to start over what it's up to you yeah so I don't know I'll see awesome your ice this is beautiful yarn I will have to say the color the colors and this happened to me before the fourth just say no so I was on track yeah I was like I was like I'm gonna have this done by the 10th yeah I was on like I was gonna I was on a mission and this is a lot of work this is a lot this was only one and a half days like literally I cranked on it like I was like I'm gonna do this I'm motivated and then that happened so I'm not all that bent out of shape about it but I am upset because I'd like to sweater I see it on you guys and I like it I don't have this yarn yeah well you think about it so I will fix it for you if you want yeah I don't beat up on this I think you'll really be happy here's the second so that's where I'm at oh that's sweater but yes I love the color it's called a ladybug oh my gosh so pretty it's so so pretty I love it yep so that's that so this is this okay that's what I'm working those you're my opposed lady I

this is the Molly girl it does although it is it's the backlight that's so cool it's got Selina and I can't remember the name I love the color you placed on the bottom yeah so I bought two skeins and this wasn't enough I brought only two it was a two skein so why don't I guess for her this wasn't enough and I knew it was not gonna be enough even if I had done it when I could have done it back cuz I bought this when I buy this about this in New England Europe he's new in one last this them this last year oh haha yeah the camera because that's got so many amazing colors yeah and we bought that

these two they they black light specials they have still another fingering and so because I don't have enough of this and I forget what it's called I think it's called like dance girl dance or something like that I don't know I'm for making up stuff now but anyway the point is is it's not enough so what I'm doing is is I'm making the sleeves bright yellow - Oh that'll be so cute the neck so that's what it's gonna be a lot I love it here at the door so and of course my cousin every day it's like so you get a lot with that yeah so I started this on my down time which is not realizing pen much and it's fingering so it's going really slow for even for a little girl's sweater I'm like well shank 10 inches of that sound boxes that's generous but you know what that is going to be beautiful the drape it's going to be so worth it yeah she's very excited about it so it's um look out fun I'm excited about the color is I think that's why I was saying to hold it up I it's really really really pretty I love that that's what I'm doing and then the only other thing I bought this when I went to laughs with my cousin okay I wonder with you another thing I did I love that yeah see Madeline

everyday knew they could tell that I was working on when they saw it and I'm like oh this vibe and I'm like I say this is vague but I think it's Kristy glass did an interview with Caitlin hunter and actually having a cute the cars like saying how do you pronounce all your pattern pattern yeah and yeah yeah so I'm I finished my lace oh wow very I mean Lutz not really like me actually I don't know if I've done blue let not lately lately lately that's right lately oh my God look at all those little closer if you can I think so too these markers are worth every so take another stuff bottle I know so you know I'm gonna pull the needles out I mean whatever so and I didn't bring I mean I know we talked about it but I didn't bring the yarn label for the blue um what so what I'm proud of myself for is I'm using both hands to knit alternate all the colors oh you fancy lady so you know I do the anything that that's Oh cuz you're still doing I thought you were done but you still know I have I have that I just started to UM right there's a little over look yeah and it's like little rectangle at the right angle yep so awesome you know they're excess excess parts I think I might do how you did it on the body and not the sleeves yeah because I don't think it needs on the sleeves I've seen it on the sleeves I think it looks great but I love mine without it personally I don't think it's necessary either but but I don't think you can go wrong if you do you know it's not overkill but I don't think it's necessary yeah so okay go see what else did what do you have fun okay so I'm gonna after I finish the cardigan I started which I'll show you in a minute a Caitlyn hunter pattern Guthrie oh yeah in that awesome but it's slow but the cult color works so I was like wait a second Sophie just made this mom in a seemed like Sofia makers pretty quick so I was like you know what I need another quick project after the beekeeper I just wanted to like have something what is this yeah so this is is that Madeline Tosh its Madeline Tosh this is what I got epic webs alright it is so pretty after Christmas last year and I got it to make the comfort fade cardi whatever its called which I know I have yarn for that too I got this yarn but I got two skeins and this is the Wildwood series which is a limited edition hmm and there's no more this is it have you checked on the round you can do I check no I did finally not joking it's gone you know there's a color but I love love but I have one skin over that I want more I have a similar situation I mean I have no project for it yeah and it's a Madeline Tosh yeah I mean they have this colorway in a different I'm sorry baby you know I'm not it's so anyway okay even on Ravelry no one has it for sale one person has it stashed not for sale so I was like I'm gonna fade it eventually but then that's really just gonna be stripes so but I still have to do something so then I found this mm-hm or just make it a crime what is this Technic like between II oh this is technically the ma-ma-ma-ma-ma alright yeah and I can do like 3/4 sleeves I just fade out stripes like you do that you're um right whatever oatmeal or whatever that was jamming so Ellie is this ok how much have you used so far let's talk about it where you want to save some for the slaves don't you yeah yeah I'm saving this yeah not so not for the sleeves oh I'm not gonna finish it okay I was skiing downstairs is this DK of the smeller know of something pretty similar really you may be okay looks like a anyway we totally will check I'm gonna make this work but mmm and maybe you could that's one skein now maybe you could make it a short sleeve something mm-hmm and I think one more scheme because I'm trying to just use what I have so I mean I don't look but that's tele diving yeah all right I will gonna look at that skein I have downstairs and one kind something similar sighs don't be okay so here's another idea here's another idea I have bought I bought yarn for my comfort paid party and it's all in this colorway so I have some similar called not exactly but in this color scheme right so you're at a great point if you want we can look I'll pull that yarn out let's see if it works and see if you could actually really feed right a full cuz it is in this it's in this vein like and you have enough where you could alternate and really actually do a face okay all right what happens here oh my god but I'd love to only make it work okay all right so there's that and then I'll show you my Guthrie yes I know I look kind of a similar situation with the Guthrie yes yeah okay because I don't have enough yarn for this one but I can order okay so this is talked about it okay first low here's because I've done so much on that you have been hiding this this is secret calling me no you did not I told you I didn't show this we said I'm thinking about frogging it right okay so here's the thing with this Guthrie am i right Thanks I don't even know what we talked about for a jury ladies know about it I initially started as far as son okay so here's the thing do you know I know Caitlyn Hunter has a lot of patterns coming up but do have you remember seeing they have a couple different she has some samples that are like low contrast so it looks like muddled and yes I'd love that and then she learned I can contrast one so I wanted the muddled one a low back panel not as much as hers so but I think it is I like my little I liked it so they like it I love it I like that so this is the green is neighborhood favorite company okay yes and I could get more of this definitely I've looked it up I can get more except two skeins and that's your main color that's the main color just from this Guthrie is all color work yep so this is my other one this is and that's all you have left once upon a corgi electric and this is this is all I have and I looked on her online store and I don't see any I could contact her and ask about it Laura this is what we got at Connecticut she protect her I remember you bought that so either or you say I don't mean to cut you off but no matter so many Caitlyn Hunter patterns are just yo I was gonna say I might just do the yoga yeah yeah yeah I was gonna say just to the yoke I'll just do the yoke you're gonna be sick of color work anyway no other if I do the color work will be done next year this time that's not true you've done so no but you know cuz I did this like yes yes yes and then I was like I need to do something quick so yeah I think the yoke would look nice I do too I don't love it yeah I like it a lot yep it's a lot I feel like very unaccomplished don't even get me okay so Laurie are you let's talk about are you settled on exactly what you're making for Rhinebeck yes okay I am I would like to I really wanted to make Tecna because I thought darn it if I want to wear a short sleeve puppy I got that if the women even if I'm gonna sweat from my sleeves down to my waist line cuz it's still Walt but I thought okay I feel good maybe that'll be like I happen medium then the killin hunter what is it called is it wild horses is that what it is I came white horse white horse why horrors that's what I wanted to make with my um my tweet because we wanted to wear tweet and I you know but I haven't even started that that's gonna be our matching stick but yeah be not yes okay so if he is just here only so yeah i i'm not going but i've caked up my yarn for my next letter well you know what's even more embarrassing if I show up with the same sweater that we're last year I don't think anybody's gonna remember I see you do it and I'm gonna do it too yeah bleh I know yeah just what I feel like I feel like oh my god how did Rhinebeck just happen all you know so anyway I will get something done but that I said I don't know but you know why it may have your comfort fake Cardiff ad yeah I have that that I do I have that you finished like a words bike yeah but and let's be real we're all then we weren't t-shirts we should wear we should buy t-shirts and right this is my Rhinebeck sweater yes yeah and I'm not gonna sweat my butt off in a wool sweater no I mean I tried Matt made well kicked our butts yeah yeah and then we I feel about barely wear it it was like oh my gosh I'm so mad at that sweater so mad yeah we don't want to get into that no I think no pressure who cares I think great we need to keep it cares that's like yeah we're there for the shopping and therefore the wall and the Sheep be men you know those men that dress up like sheep yeah those weirdo weirdo for me yeah but I liked it I know me - obviously I'm there for that I didn't especially when they were like me too me too me too I'm right there with you did you better do that yeah you know you saw it if you're there they have those like like weird like black get like shoes yep they only have like two clubs and they're like mmhmm yeah but you could stop going at it yeah but you wanted to not they were the bowel yes he wanted to look away but did you say wouldn't they buy they body didn't laid around and the MiG did that yeah they did they didn't I'm not I was attracted to them so I was interested it was well wonder what they must think though like they do that and then they probably go back to the tent or whatever in there probably we're not Slyke you know what that is that's like that like that like what is it like a temp agency looking for people to like yeah like when I'm yeah college I was handing out craisins when craisins first came out it was free sample of craisins I had to dress up like a safari person so then we like pretended to have like Scottish accents just to make it fun cuz we really got a NASCAR circuit and we're literally hanging handing out like like craisins samples because they were trying to see if people liked him yeah but I was all I was was a temp I was a temp who got hired to hand out craisins at NASCAR moshe like imagine they're like temps like we're looking for men and people who dress up like she know those are she professionals cool your choice that's very personal time yeah well anyway I discovered a new podcast I tell you about it no yeah the Chelsea girls yes I think it's what I watch a little bit yes I'd like it so far I um so fun and so fun it's called the Chelsea pearls podcast okay and it's not golden pearls no it's because the yarn shop is two ladies one of them owns the yarn shop and I think they're in Chelsea New Jersey in New Jersey oh but I don't know area like Chelsea something with the place okay so right he's not Chelsea no her name is not Chelsea but one of the ladies there's Chelsea I think is the name of the Chelsea pearls is the name of the yarn shop I think oh okay obviously even watched that many episodes I've made me watch three but is what I find so interesting about it because the owner of the yarn shop her husband is in the background yeah of the whole time the whole time what anything my mentee he's come he's commenting so you rarely get to see him I think I saw him in one episode very briefly but he's almost a personality of the podcast but not kind of like the announcing yeah he does he announcing and he obviously helps run the yarn shop because he knows what he's talking about - and chimes in and he makes interesting comments and the girls of the podcasts are also really cute and good and I'm gonna VIN to - to - I think the owner and then her friend Maryam who is it's just they're both great and they make beautiful things they've got great yarn it's fun it's fun so you know like I don't know do any of those talk shows like Howard Stern or you know one of those talk shows that has the guy off-camera sometimes David Letterman would do it to the guy you know the music yeah yeah I mean you know at all yeah oh yeah and sometimes the camera would go to Paul but he'd be talking to Paul and Paul would talk back and you wouldn't see him like word that five I was gonna say like Jimmy Fallon yeah he just said with the roots yeah whatever he doesn't up that with this guy yeah he's got a guy - right so it's kind of has that funny vibe and I don't he's him they're all like and his name is Red Bank Mike and they're like all right Big Mike and it's arrow it's cute it's - something different yeah we'll see pearls podcast and um yeah oh and I wanted to ask her viewers what podcasts you guys are watching besides us obviously cuz I'm looking for new ones okay there's many so there are so many and what your favorite some of them are I don't know the ones that I've been watching my old standbys are kind of just the same thing over and over your track furthermore just something different yeah I've can't complain about any specific podcast it's not that's not what I'm doing just I'm gonna rage a mix it up mix it I like I don't have time for podcasts that sounds stupid oh I put on when I'm washing the dishes to make you come on I'm training in a company yeah I don't wash dishes enough yeah I don't have time for podcasts either and I can't that's yeah I can't I don't think I could concentrate on I want to watch something when I watch something yeah no yeah well that's I think part of why some of our interest for me because it's repetitive they have a lot of podcasts and sometimes we do this too like we start out with our introduction and we finished objects - we do the same thing all the time yeah so today I want a boring like that but it's just not that podcasts are boring but it's like they're going through the same routine and you can only look at people's purchases so many times and yeah and you just watch okay so don't Nappanee we should think about me Hey oh yes yeah yeah yeah well I'm just talking fresh okay so I know what you mean I mean yeah yeah okay oh I lied I've watched the make up podcast make up make up points well anyway yeah gardening gardening I love sandy by the lake side I've got a few that I really do love yeah I have my um and the nice and knit one came out and slapped and they were so cute oh my god they bag they showed all their bags yeah on the podcast oh my saw I saw when they were yeah oh my god yeah I was like oh all those packs they love their bags they love their bags they do you see that yeah yeah I can't one they're the ones that you introduce a home um what was my bag no matter matter route like that wait crazy like when I want to talk about bags like if I think about bags I like it's at the time it's because I've seen them with their bag the other like midnight or whatever they've said and those matter roof bags oh my god I feel like they're the ones who like really made that like yeah yeah yeah yeah well but I think like they were like they're crazy supporters they like fought like they have both been buying them day long time yes agreed and no good taste they do every time let's see that's baby okay you're done to your oh yeah so no I'm not very far love it but I like it I love this color and I'm alternate no stains I can't run but I don't see do you have it mmm the cardigan has like this just pull over yeah yeah you and you made it I'm weighted with that curveball
