Agriculture Report
My flowers are all blooming away or getting ready to. That’s a big relief, as there were some that I didn’t think were going to make it earlier this summer.

RIP Lazlo
We lost the second of our two cats earlier this week. He loved hanging out on the porch, “helping” me knit, and chin scrootches He also enjoyed trying to get me to change the weather when it didn’t suit his going outside (if there was sound to go with this picture, you would deaf from… Continue reading RIP Lazlo

My flowers are finally filling in somewhat! There are a lot of bud ready to bloom, so hopefully they will keep on getting better from here 🙂 If you are gardening at all, how is it going?
Out and About: Alaska Zoo
For the first time in a couple of years, we went out to the zoo today! We’ve been pretty jazzed to get out of the house a little more now that restrictions are pretty much lifted in Anchorage, and there are a whole bunch of new baby animals to check out.

I’ve admired this scarf for a while now, and also feel like I should do at least a little crocheting, hence committing to another project. And that’s OK. I have realized that I’m not going to… Continue reading Decisions, Decisions
Patterns – paper or digital?

It’s not as easy as it seems like it might be – I need to check the patterns and make sure I have them digitally, then the printout can get thrown… Continue reading Patterns – paper or digital?
