Knitting for spring

Soft pima cotton yarn... and this color my oldest daughter picked out, definitely a spring color.  Our mini daffodils have buds on them.  Also, we harvested about 2 pounds of carrots yesterday!  We were happily surprised they lasted over the winter with all the cold and snow.
Sunshine the past few days!  A hike with George's Godmother, who gave us these delicious Ojai tangerines grown on a farm in California.  They are the BEST we've had!  She shared some with us last year, too, better than store-bought oranges.  
Olivia had a colorguard competition this past Saturday!  We went and cheered her on!!
I started reading The Aviator by Eugene Vodolazkin after reading Gretchen Joanna's review.  It's by the same author who wrote Laurus.  So far, a man wakes up in a hospital bed and has lost his memory.  He is writing stories he remembers, as a five year old having tea with his grandmother, sitting on an embroidered pillow and stirring the tea using a small spoon.

Those oranges *do* look delicious! I am putting "The Aviator" on my to-read list--it sounds lovely.

Oh, the beautiful tangerines!

And that color of yarn is Scrumptious! ;-)

Congratulations on your carrots. Are they still sweet? They look juicy.
