This week we have finished projects! (woot!) Or partly finished, at least. We talk movies with Cowboys & Aliens and Captain America (no spoilers), Karen’s crazy Sock Summit/SG-1 crossover ideas, some geeky gear and new Twist Collective. Oh, and some little thing no one’s probably heard about called Pottermore.

Mentioned in this episode:
Another Crafty Girl yarns
For a sampling of the movies we saw, check out the Cowboys & Aliens and the Captain America trailers
Maggie’s had her brain broken in finishing Ghost Story by Jim Butcher (no spoilers)
Two great lib dub videos: Cosplay Fever’s lip dub of Pink’s “Raise Your Glass” and a lip dub of Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” from SDCC. (And bonus for those that read the show notes: check out the University of British Columbia lipdub of “Raise Your Glass” and prepare to have your mind blown. ONE TAKE, PEOPLE. ONE TAKE.)
Thankfully I did find some fellow nerds mugging in front of the Sockgate by searching Google Images, including Amy Singer of Knitty.
Geek a Week, and their Neil Gaiman interview

Pottermore; which I GOT INTO. :D:D:D Haven’t seen the site itself yet, but eagerly waiting for my Hogwarts letter email.
Not Martha and the mini-gingerbread houses
