I knit. And I cook, write, take pictures. All for one low price.

spring

This week, we had some uncommonly high temperatures around here. Tuesday we went all the way into the upper eighties! All my flowers suddenly started blooming at the same time.
Some of these tulips are usually more staggered, but they just had to come out and see what was going on.







I looked back at last year's pictures, and these Virginia Bluebells and my Bleeding Hearts are one month early.











Thank you to everyone who inquired, but I am feeling much better today. Whatever was bothering me must have finished blooming. I do wish we would get some decent rain though.
Have a good weekend! I am trying to finalize my book proposal, so you may or may not hear from me for a couple of days.
