This, however, is pretty, and will soon be very pretty:
Tulips!! They are growing at a rate of about 1/2" per day. I absolutely cannot wait until they bloom.
I've been reading (actually re-reading) No Idle Hands: A Social History of American Knitting by Anne Macdonald and Good Wives by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich. (NOTE: How silly is it that one can never find these kinds of books in the history section of a bookstore???) Is it too late to change my major? I love living in New England.
I have been meaning to take the kids down to Salem for a hands-on history lesson but now I think I will go by myself first. I haven't been in ages and I really want to enjoy the Peabody Essex Museum and the Witch Museum all by myself, in peace. I also hope this happens soon - maybe now with the 110th there is a chance?
(I wonder what's with all the italics today. Perhaps I am trying to give my random thoughts greater significance...)
On to the knitting...here is Calorimetry 2. Looks a lot like Calorimetry 1, I know, but smaller and less babushka-like. Not that I have anything against babushkas...
The SIL felted bag is smokin' - I love love love the colors. Pics later.
Go Nancy...go, go, go Nancy.

Tulips are a beautiful...it's a shame that their flowers don't last very long. Did you get the bulbs locally? There use to be over 500 in my yard but, the darn squirels keep digging them up and eating them.
