My husband and I recently spent a week in Indianapolis. The trip was all about him. It’s a city I have passed through, but never visited. We managed to be there for the record breaking cold and a surprise snow storm. By Saturday, the weather had warmed, and my husband suggested we drive around and visit a local yarn shop, Broad Ripple Knits.
A group at the office had a lunch meeting. Pizza was brought in. There were a couple of pizzas left which were placed in the lunchroom for anyone who wanted some. Word spread fast. Who doesn’t love something for nothing?
