Thanks Tamaralynn! That's a full spa-treatment-get-ready-to-be-mother-of-the-bride-kit in my avatar. I don't like many pictures of me but I do like that one.

I have some odds and ends of yarn. I was thinking about making a granny square afghan. I did once before and it was great!

Wonder if the original phrase was odd ends? I mean, what is an odds?

Well, it wouldn't be "an" odds. Odds is plural, so it would be an odd. An odd is a single, leftover piece of something, like a scrap of fabric. Short for "oddment."
Gods, I'm smart when I have internet access!
...and a little bit geeky/scary too.
