March and Knitting

 

Hello friends!  I'm finally here and it's already March, the blowing month!  We began our March with snow (finally!) I was beginning to feel like I was NOT getting a winter and I really LOVE winter for the most part.  I'm praying for some good spring snows up ahead.  Kelli, Bryan and I went up to Washington to see my dear mama and we enjoyed some valley views. It's not quite tulip time yet but the gardens did have some tulips for sale.  

 

 

I finished some socks for Christie, my sister in law Judy and now I am knitting a pair for Scott our son in law.  I also made a flamingo for my baby niece.   

I finally finished this blue sweater and I gave it to Jenny.  I look very sleepy in the photo below. Oh, and I knit a little gray hat for a two year old we know who is undergoing cancer treatment.
 

 

 

I found a bunny cup and a bowl on Etsy.  When I was a child we each had a bunny cup but something happened to mine so when I saw this one and the thick bowl, I ordered it.  I have new bunny dishes, but I wanted old ones, too.  Soon (in the next few years) I should weed out many of my dishes.  Have you done that?  It's amazing how many dishes we have.

Are you doing any kind of special something for Lent?  I'm sometimes listening to an app and sometimes reading Lent writings.  Maybe I'll make some sort of countdown thing so I can eagerly anticipate Easter like I want to.

When we were at my mom's I found an old cookbook from the Josephine Sunset Home.  Many church people had contributed recipes. I found a sourdough starter recipe and I shall mix some up today.  

I like going for neighborhood walks when I have some books to deposit in the Little Library up by the park, so because I have two good books to drop there, I shall go for a walk now.

Are you excited about March? Why?

I hope you are well and peaceful.
