Emma learns to crochet

The young women had a lesson on crocheting. Emma started a project on Wednesday and by Thursday it was a long, skinny something (a blanket for a snake?), by Friday she had added on to it and closed it into a circle (a lampshade?) By Saturday she decided to add some straps and a bow and make it a dress for a teddy bear.

Wow! She certainly has a gift for learning quickly and for being creative.

Tulips--the bad and the good

So, last fall I planted bulbs. I thought I would plant a few in a pot and force them to bloom early. The only thing is--I forgot about them. They started to grow out from under their cover and look like alien creatures. Not a pretty sight.
But, the bulbs in the garden have been beautiful and so fun to look at from our kitchen table.
