It's cold and gray out. I am ready for Spring to be here in all its' sunshiny glory. But for now, I am cold, sipping a cup of tea, curled up in a blanket... and enjoying it. I have at least 10 different types of tea in my cabinet, all of which I love depending on my mood. Today, it is lavender earl grey which was actually the first tea I ever liked a few years ago. I love the way tea automatically makes me feel cozy. When I hear the tea kettle whistle, I already feel better about the cold day. I am idealistic I think. I like for moments to be lovely.... and today is a lovely day.
I went this morning to buy a book on either quilting or sewing and settled on the one for quilting (although it took me about an hour to decide.) and I have promised myself to work through the book and make everything in it, even if I don't like it for sheer experience and learning. I want to be good at something that is both productive and takes up vast amounts of my free time. I want something to show for myself and my time. I am excited about this. We'll see how it goes. Maybe I will get real good and start selling my quilts... maybe, but for now, the making part makes me happy.
Look at you blogging away. I took a look at my blog today and thought about posting some projects.
