Weekly Chronicle

Since I seem to have trouble with timely blogging lately, I thought I'd start a weekly recap or chronicle giving a quick glance at what we've been up to instead of waiting until I have time to do a longer, separate post about everything.  This week I'll have to do 2 chronicles to get caught up.  This chronicle is from 2 weeks ago.

 This large snapping turtle was taking a nap on the warm road until a neighbor with a large bucket and shovel scooped him up to take him back to his pond.  He wasn't happy about it but I was glad he didn't get run over.

 Pretty rainbow. Too bad my camera can't capture how beautiful it was.

 While at my sister's a few weeks ago, I bought 2 crates of asparagus (at only $2/lb!!!).  I blanched and froze most of it to enjoy the rest of the year.

 Charlotte helping me cut fruit for a fruit salad while developing her knife skills.

 I had to teach the kids the fine art of making floor beds to make TV watching more comfy.  My sister and I were pros at building floor beds as kids.  Charlotte and Evan were watching Iron Chef with me. 

I knit this sweet little set for a friend who is due with a little boy any day now.  It's a cotton blend yarn that should be perfect for a summer baby.  If you're on Ravelry, I've started keeping track of my projects and my stash so you can find more info about this set.  My name on Ravelry is beckaboo.
