IN MY WORLD THIS WEEKEND

One day, with life and heart,
Is more than time enough to find a world.

~ James Russell Lowell





This weekend I....

Celebrated 31 years of marriage!

Finished my Heat.

Saw lots and lots of sunshine.

Picked the last fig of the season from my tree.

Made this ice cream....oh my gosh!!!

Picked tiny wildflowers for my studio.

Broke my pact to myself and cast on
another project at 11:45 a.m. because I
just had to.

Now I going to sit back, read my book and
relax before a very busy Monday appears.
Wishing you a gentle and loving start to
your week.

Joining with Amanda.

  8. happy anniversary to you! mine is this week as well :) There is nothing wrong with casting on another project, sometimes a knitter has to do what a knitter has to do :)

  9. Congrats! Our 21st was last Thursday. :) A quiet dinner and a movie on the cheap. The red is gorgeous, and is that the new knit in the last pic? Like the colorway. I finished a project yesterday (love Sundays!) and have to not co anything new so I can finish a few others...we'll see. :)

  11. Happy Anniversary! Congratulations on 31 years! I"m debating what to cast on next. I've got so many projects to do in my mind, but I am really trying to focus on what is in the knitting basket.

  12. don't look at it like breaking a pact, more a reward for knitting well done and heat off the needles :)

  13. It sounds a pretty good world to me. Lucky you having a fig tree, particularly one that you managed to salvage the fruits rather than watch the birds take them all!
    Thank you for admiring my shawl and popping over to say hello.

  14. Happy Anniversary Tracey! That ice cream looks so delicious. I've made coconut milk ice creams and the only complaint I have is that they get so hard in the freezer that they're difficult to scoop. The next time I make a batch I am thinking of adding gelatin to make it a little more scoop able. (They add it to sorbets for this reason, so I'm thinking it might work?)

  15. Oooo... that ice cream sounds good! I've just discovered a dairy allergy in the family so I'd love to try this. Congrats on your anniversary!
