Today, I am...
March 28, 2013
Reading . . . The Life of Edna St. Vincent Millay (brilliant) and Following Atticus by Tom Ryan-if you have a pet (especially a dog) you will love this book
Knitting . . . Chicane (of course)
Listening to. . . my favorite (community) radio station KRCL and John Florence’s Acoustic Sunrise
Thinking about . . . what it will be like to have a new refrigerator(today!)
Dreading . . . Quill (although I truly do want to finish it)
Planning . . . to knit with Cookie's handspun (red!)
Excited about . . . SPRING!
Drinking . . . my morning tea
Itching to . . . go Microspike hiking
Needing to . . . clean the pantry
Organizing . . . the patio
Delighted by. . . Carole! She can give you the deets. Isn't it pretty?! I LOVE IT!
Carole was right. That shawlette was made for you! Beautiful.

Oh, such a lovely giftie!
Today I started making a coconut cake, did a bit of housekeeping and laundry, and a wee bit of knitting. xo

Such a wonderful list. Edna St. Vincent Milay is the BEST. I love The Ballad of the Harp Weaver. Her house in NYC is one of the skinniest houses I have ever seen. If you were to stand in the middle of the house with your arms outstretched - you could *almost* lean a little to the left and then a little to the right and touch each end of the house!

That shawl is just more beautiful everytime I see it, and it especially suits you. I love how the colors just float in the grey.

There you are! :D Slightly biased, but loving your hair. Looking forward to seeing what you do with that yarn. xo
