This weekend was an incredible January thaw but we're expected to swing back into more seasonable temperatures soon. But really - it felt like spring!

Well, I have my own version of a mommy morning basket. It sits in a dark corner of... Continue Reading →
Merry Christmas! I'm so happy to be here, bright and early, on Christmas morning and sharing my weekly reading and knitting with you.
