Busy crocheting, cooking and loving the garden.

Look at this gorgeous wool! I've crocheted a small adult hat in a beautiful Aussie wool. I just love how the colours form stripes. It is warm and not scratchy. I'm going to make a few more in different sizes.

I also started crocheting the back of a sleeveless-type cardi (my own design), so it is kind of developing as I go. Lovely yarn from Cleckheaton (really thick, maby 12ply).

This is a delicious soup I made for the girls -cauliflower and potato soup -thick and creamy with avocado on muffins. This was such a yummy and healthy soup. I love making warm soups in Winter. I love it even more when my teenaged daughters eat it all up in one sitting!

Here are some flowers from my garden, which at the moment is stunningly bare. I love the dots of colour of the budding jonquils though -Spring will come! I am sowing seeds of delphiniums this week and I threw lots of purple poppy seeds around the garden yesterday that I had kept from last Summer! I am planning to have heaps of delphiniums this year. Usually the snails get them as seedlings, but I am determined this year to beat the snails! I adore poppy pods. The purple poppies last year were absolutely gorgeous!

I am loving reading your comments and blogs! Have a great weekend!:-)
