Easter


 


We had a nice Easter weekend - spent the first part of Saturday cleaning the house (I hatehatehate housecleaning), doesn't that sound nice? And a lovely Sunday - John went for a bike ride (and came back claiming he was about to barf from out-of-shapeness: isn't that nice?), I made two loaves of ciabatta, we got cleaned up and went over to friend Mel's for Easter dinner.

I've gotten back in the habit of carrying my knitting with me everywhere I go (except to work, because I don't want to be fired for knitting):

Yep, John's heavy woolen cabled cardie is put away for the summer. That's my new clapotis (cotton and rayon) and the beginnings of a very tall sock for John to wear inside his waders. So far, I am a wee bit slow on size 1 needles. These may be lengthy socks as well as long ones.

When we got to Mel's, lovely Theodore was guarding the dinner table:

Theodore the lizard in his natural habitat

We gave Theodore to Mel for Christmas, so it is nice to see he is making himself useful. From the empty condition of the glass he was lolling in, he may well have been drunk as a newt, too - not a nice condition for a big, handsome lizard to get himself into.

I don't usually write disjointed blog posts on purpose, but this one will just have to be that way. Too tired to be coherent or amusing (or even write in complete sentences, it seems).
