Blooms

In warmer climates..they have blooms.  Photo from my sister.

 We will have blooms in a couple of months.  After all it is Minnesota...my Dad used to say that over his years he witnessed snow in Minnesota every month of the year.  I wish I could recall what years he said...but I cannot.

Minnesota weather: Sunny!  high 48F or 9C low was 25F or -4C eh!  

We had a quiet day on Saturday.  Far Guy did some woodcarving.  I did some laundry and crocheting. 

I made potato salad and Andy grilled steaks so it was almost a Summertime meal.  And it was delicious!

Saturday evening they are all watching hockey, I will join them for a bit...hockey is ok ...I can watch a bit and no one gets upset if I ask dumb questions!  Then I will escape to read:)

Friday

 We finished #19 and #20 of 22 appointments.  Come back in three months and come back if you have problems...alrighty then. 

We have had some cold windy days and it snowed huge snowflakes a couple of times yesterday.  The wind is just raw.

A sunset photo that my sister sent from Phoenix where she reports it is very warm:)

Minnesota weather: High 30F or -1C  low was 21F or -6C.  We should see warmer temperatures over the weekend and into next week when it could rain instead of snow...but you never know. 

Far Guy, Jen and Andy watch Hockey...playoffs I guess.  I read, work on a puzzle or watch whatever I want to on another TV....lately old reruns of Project Runway Allstars. 

Far Guy and I made pizza for supper..it was really good...Pillsbury Crust with Italian Sausage and Pepperoni.

Onward and forward

 I finished another baby blanket.

Sage Green this time...same old story ...single crochet...6.5 crochet hook and three skeins of Baby Bee Snugs and Kisses yarn. 

Started another blanket...using misc colors of yarn...you know from the stash. 

I will frog ( rip it ) what I have started...as I was not pleased with the spacing of the pattern.  Plus maybe I should have an idea of how I am going to work out the colors...decisions...decisions.  It will be stripes of different colors that I know for sure!

We finished up #17 and #18 of 22 medical appointments on Thursday.  Come back next week and come back in three months.  So it goes onward and forward.  #19 and #20 happen today (Friday). Next week we finish up the month and the last two appointments before we turn the calendar to April.

what to cook?

 That is a daily question.  

Today I am cooking.  Pork roast, mashed potatoes, gluten free gravy and baked carrots. 

If I had more energy I would make a dessert.

We had an adventure yesterday...a trip to an antique shop that was stuffed to the gills with "stuff".  I did not buy a thing.  However I did see some cute signs.
