Hello and welcome to the Yarniaks podcast.

This is episode 108, which we are recording on Monday, February 15th, 2016.

I'm Gail.

And I'm Charlene.

This episode is sponsored by Cooperative Press.

Thank you, Cooperative Press.

Yeah, thank you.

We have some books of theirs to review later in the episode.

But I wanted to say thank you to all of you who are listening because Charlene and I, before we turned on the recording,

we're talking about how anxious we've been kind of just me today and in general the last

couple of days general stress yeah and how we were looking forward to sitting down and recording

because it's just such a blissful relaxing event for us to chat with each other know that we're

kind of chatting with you too and thank you for listening because I really needed this today.

Yes, I do too.

What are you wearing?

I was wearing my inner piece shawl by Hoi Locatelli.

Gail pointed out that I've probably talked about that shawl in the past before because it does tend to be one that I reach for a lot.

And today, even though currently it's quite warm out it was chilly this morning so I've been putting it on

taking it off putting it on taking it off just because I love the shawl so much itself

it is a try no it's not a triangular shawl.

Why did I start saying that?

It's in, oh, it's got lots of points on it.
