I hope you’re having a wonderful weekend filled with your favorite things! It has been horribly humid and warm here the last few days, and I can’t help but look forward to fall with its crisp nights and foggy mornings, bright leaves and expectation of harvest. I’ve been working extra hard on the winter knits [...]
We’ve had some delightfully cooler days this week and I’ve found myself drawn more and more to the outdoors.

Classes and graduation are over. Sunday before (graduation) we bought flowers and tomatoes plants which we are going to pot tonight. They are lovely: Today I started my summer job. I like it. I do all kinds of officey things. Right now I feel tired and ready for a break, at least we have flowers!

I am ready for summer, or rather I am ready for the semester to be over. I have one large project, a few small things, and a stupid medium size project. I want summer to hurry up and get here, not for the warmer weather (summer in Greenville brings stifling mugginess) but for a break [...]
I write about things I like: knitting, fashion, books, and other cozy, lovely things. Thanks for visiting!
