Look at cute little Iris enjoying her homemade toy. Your scrappy quilt, apple pie, and pho soup are wonderful creations from your home.

I have started paper piecing a string quilt using accumulated fabric scraps from many past quilting projects. We are expecting another snow tomorrow here in the mountains of Virginia with predicted accumulations of 9-12 inches--maybe more. Your little Iris is growing up; I know you enjoy her so very much. Grandchildren are such a blessing.

Garden and much walking have to wait for warmer days.<br />Snowdrops flower at differing times, I have an early variety (among others) that has been flowering since Christmas. It always turns up for the festive season.<br />I have already bought between 8 and 10 books in January for my Kindle reader. All reduced from BookBuB. If you choose carefully you can get very good fiction and non-fiction. Thrillers too, of course; I need to feed my frivolous side.Frikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277167831642088694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-54754773186747241362022-01-15T05:59:35.803-08:002022-01-15T05:59:35.803-08:00Your amaryllis is ambitious, climbing so tall, and...Your amaryllis is ambitious, climbing so tall, and it is beautiful!

I didn't buy one this year, but my husband told me that there is one in the basement that I put there last year, so I might try to bring it back to life. Your first glimpses of green are so encouraging! I know spring is right around the corner, but it seems like it will never get warm again. I have so much to do when spring comes, so I need to get my planner out and start planning! Iris looks very happy with her robot, what a beautiful little grand!

I read Three Hours in Paris and enjoyed it. Of course. I'm reading Anything is Possible by Elizabeth Strout. I loved the Olive books. I will put reserves in for the Crow Lake and A Cruel Deception. I'm reading a lot these days.Madame La-Bashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02752844200917509110noreply@blogger.com
