Blunder Woman: Storm Damage

Have you ever put your seed trays out in the sun and then, without thinking about the impending bad weather, gone inside for a quick nap? No? Just me?

An Explosion of Life

Now that we've had a few warm spring days all that rain is really paying off: everything is growing like mad (weeds included of course) and I'm starting to feel really guilty about how much time I'm not spending in the garden. I did have a nap lying in the sun, though, and it was glorious. I can really see the appeal of this photosynthesis business.

I think the blueberries are starting to berry!

Boyfriend SOCK Curse?!

We've all heard that knitting your boyfriend a sweater is a sure-fire way to end the relationship - the Boyfriend Sweater Curse is an infamous one spread between knitters the world around and, while (of course) not actually based in fact, backed up by countless tales of woe and heartbreak. I thought I was safe from this as I'm sticking to socks but... things haven't been going well.

At least they're pretty.

Luggala Heartbreak

Is there anything worse than frogging hours of work? I finally bit the bullet and ripped out Luggala's sleeves because, as hard as it was to admit it, the sizing was way off. At least my other news this week is all good: everything in the seed trays is growing and our second attempt at dumplings went even better than the first. Oh - and the chickens are laying!

No, I still have just the two - it may have taken me a couple days to notice is all.
