Spring is here in New England. Flowers are starting to bloom (mostly tulips, pansies, daffodils, and crocuses, so far). There are a few lovely warm days in between the cool, rainy ones. On the nice days I absolutely do not want to be inside. Instead, I make any excuse to stay outside, whether it is gardening, running errands, or reading on the porch.
I have gone for a few short bike rides around my area of Boston, including one to Allendale Farm, where I bought some cute little pansies to plant next to my porch. Yes, I rode my bike to a farm and bought plants. It was great, although I noticed they didn't really have bike parking (I locked up to of their fence posts).
Knitting has been slow, mostly because class work has cut into my hobby time. I am glad the semester is almost over. It will be nice to be able to go home, make a decent dinner, and relax while knitting in front of the TV.
