Happy Valentine's Day!

I had a lot of plans and ideas for this day that just didn't happen, but it was a nice day anyway. We had a Valentine lunch with two guests, and The Bruise finally had someone to give Valentines to. I also saw two movies. I went to The International with BFJ, which I thought was a good movie, if somewhat despairing. As we were leaving the theater, my sister was coming in, heading toward He's Just Not That Into You, so BFJ suggested I stay and watch that with her while he went to pick up the kids. So I did. (I went back out and bought a ticket, just so you know.) I left the second movie acutely aware that my house does not say things about me, like Movie Peoples' Movie Houses say things about the character(s) they belong to. And also, I had never realized how much Ben Affleck looks like Casey Affleck. I mean, it's not that I didn't get the point of the movie, but luckily I am all settled about who my sweetheart is :)

And by the way, it is still wintry here.

garden panos from 2023

 Last year, I made some effort (not thoroughly successful) to capture state-of-the-garden pictures every month, including panoramas stitched together on Photoshop, in order to get the whole view of what's happening.  So here's a little recap of the garden in 2023! early March April May June August It appears that I missed July, and either didn't take or didn't save this project in September, although we didn't have a killing frost very late into the season - we were still harvesting a few things in October.  As much as I loved the lettuce that was growing in the tunnel, and getting an early start on a few things, I'm not a fan of plastic anywhere, especially in my garden, so I am looking at options - cold boxes with old windows, etc.  I'm planning to start my 2024 garden this month - pea planting, planning, and seed starting in March!  What are you planting?

Spring Means Baseball!

I've had this idea for a knitting pattern in my head and it's finally come to fruition!  I am still polishing up the pattern, but here's a quick peak:  PS:  There's more than one size and this one is too big for me but it was the only one I had "stitched up."

Night

Trixie (as in Speed Racer) and Stitch (as in per inch) Night My kitten walks on velvet feet And makes no sound at all; And in the doorway nightly sits To watch the darkness fall. I think he loves the lady, Night, And feels akin to her Whose footsteps are as still as his, Whose touch as soft as fur. Lois Weakley McKay ... a childhood favorite from The How and Why Library. Thank goodness my parents moved last year and sent this book my way. Otherwise, I would have just the first line running through my head forever!
