The lakes are frozen.
young maniacs play hockey;
Wiser people knit.
I found this at Wool-tyme Clearly, I’m on some sort of intarsia kick. Not knitting it, just showing it! 
On the home front: I don’t play hockey. I don’t watch hockey, so I’m glad spring is approaching.
Yesterday, I went to a garden show at the local garden center. This inspired me to buy seeds and get my basil started. So, I filled some jiffy strips with starter soil, wet it all down, sprinkled seeds and slid the whole thing onto a cookie sheet. That went into an XL ziplock bag; that keeps the surface from drying out. Then, everything went into my garden window. Now, I can just peer in every now and then as I do the dishes. Hmmm… dreams of basil!
Of course, I also started a few other things. The Dahlia’s and Caladiums are in the basement. And those seed sets include white echinacea, some sort of vine, dill for my father-in-law and some replacement columbines. So, I should be all set for spring!

My first comment. I have no clue what a URI is, I don’t believe I have one. Hope this is accepted.
My grandson and I bought a Yard Machine tiller yesterday, tilled up two small (10′ X 10′ ) plots for veggies and some herbs, will do two other smaller beds for flowers. Haven’t gardened much in a couple of years due to a couple of joint surgeries, so this is a treat. Grandson found tilling more fun than his favorite computer game which he gave up for Lent! How great is that! We pulled up the last of the Fall garden, turnips and greens, cooked a large pot full. Sooo good.
Just ordered a book on knitting socks on circular needles. Can’t wait to see how it goes. Love making wool socks for son and his boys who live in Alaska. Knitting socks is my substitute for any and all kinds of tranquilizers. Works for me. Great blog.
