This looks like fun

Who could resist a book
titled "Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard" ?

Certainly not i.

And look!
there are monkeys on the cover.
I bet that you'll be wanting
to read this too.





Monkeys !

time to knit

The Knitting Companion
and i have been doing a Lot
of Knitting this month.
We've finished two
pair of lovely wool socks.
This week, we have taken up work
on a large "work in progress" ...
as well, have started another project.
Ok, two new projects.
I've even made a list because . . .
there seem to be a lot of things
on the go.

That's not a bad thing
but there's no use starting great
new things if they might get
lost among the "many".

greenery

Above, a very happy house plant.



and here is
a house plant that's having
a flower for the
very first time since it has been here.

How to dress

Really now,
who could resist
this little book ?
Audry Hepburn! In a glamourous
and totally Gorgeous gown.
With gloves !~ my hero !

who would want
to resist this pretty book
when it's full of Blank Pages (yipee!)
for writing your OWN story in. And of
course, draw your own pictures.

And ...
Especially when it features
a black Standard Poodle
and a White Standard poodle.
Quite like
a poodle that i live with. And his White brother.

I could not resist.

winter reading ...

another book
on the go. This one
by Daniel Pink ....



and this little
book of poetry was a
gift at Christmas time.

it's been extremely cold
here in Montreal the past several
days. Yesterday
topped out with a windchill
factor of minus 38c.
Brr.

i'm so happy to say that today is much warmer.
So warm, in fact,
that it's snowing. Thank goodness.
