5 things I'm excited about

1. Forecasts like these:

(I don't mean to fool you; this is actually the forecast for the Bahamas, not Spokane. It's 5 degrees here, but let's not talk about it.)

2. This vintage sweater pattern from the 1930s I just ordered yarn to make (although I'm using off-white and light blue instead of the red so that I don't look like a Christmas candy cane):


3. This book. Only in about 20 pages, but I am truly enjoying it, and I love Zadie Smith.


4. Another Smith-I-Love's album, The Filibuster, just about ready for your lucky little ears (much as I tried to convince him that my creepy embroidery would make a great album cover, he's wisely going a different route. But I'm going to campaign for t-shirts next.)


5. A new pose for this year's Bloomsday:
