Pretty, Pretty, Flowers

I have no doubt that I am not alone in having dark, scary recesses in the closets around my house. You know, those places in the closet that we just choose not to look in. Yesterday, I looked in mine. I came out with 2 kitchen size garbage bags full of clothes to get rid of. And boy did it feel good! No more looking in THAT corner thinking I should get rid of things.

In other, prettier news:


Pale Pink and Red

I love hollyhocks. These beauties are shading our back porch. I like the red ones best. But I also love the black ones, the yellow ones and all the lovely shades of purple and pink.

And letā€™s not forget the double red ones!



It is now time for the Mommy Must Share Hour. The other night I perpetrated a heinous crime. I turned Noggin off to watch adult programming. This ALWAYS results in a tremendous 2 year old style tantrum from Knitter #3. She is 2, after all. What made it all worth sharing was when Knitter #2 calmly told her ā€œWe canā€™t always be thinking of ourselvesā€. I nearly fell over laughing when I heard that. It is best not to fall over when holding a knife.



Lastly, a progress picture of the Slithery Snake. I love knitting this project. It is quick and kinda fun because you are mostly knitting a tube. Iā€™m saying ā€˜kindaā€™ because I will probably be sick of knitting a tube by the time I am done with it.
