Very Cozy, Thank You Very Much
It was almost scary how much we needed a cozy weekend.
But we got one! The very best kind, full of lazy mornings, easy outings, house-sprucing, crafting, reading, and laying on the Sunday paper (at least, if you’re a kitty, you do that).
Yesterday I finished dyeing my sweater; this time it came out perfectly. I really should have done a before and after photo… but it’s a lovely dark espresso color now, instead of the yellowy cream which was really unflattering on me. Yay, new work sweater! And yay, cold-water dye. That worked much better.
Then we went out in search of a things. One of which was a piece of art for the kitchen, something that we could dress up seasonally. After a lot of searching, we finally found just the right piece, then went to IKEA for a lightweight frame (since our walls are alternately made of crumbly plaster or concrete… not the best picture-hanging materials, either one). We love our birdies, they needed to come home with us. They will be lovely with a holly garland this winter, or surrounded by spring flower paintings… or presiding over a lovely autumn table.


The rest of today may hold: fall plant transplants, some more picture-hanging, chili-making, and hopefully, hopefully, cozying up while it pitter-pats rain outside. It’s still looking awfully bright, but they say that will change…
Hoping you and yours are having just as cozy a weekend as we are.
