Another Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, Valentine's Day, and St. Patrick's Day have past; and boy, it sounds like a long time when I think of it in those terms. When I was a kid I felt like it took ages for a month to pass, and now a month passes so quickly I can hardly live it. I'm not sure if time passes more quickly as I age because I have more or less to think about... Or is it because I am larger? Does time pass slower for a squirrel than for me, because he is smaller and the world so much larger than he?
I seem to have been trapped in time. People are always telling me I look 10 years younger than I am; yet if they knew what I looked like when I was 19, would they still think me unchanged...
I suppose some of you may be wondering what I did during all these holidays while I have posted nothing for you to read.
Lets see how little I accomplished as compared with a child. I learned how to make lovely rolls for Thanksgiving and a proper loaf of bread. Superman and I put up our very first real Christmas Tree, and the new ornaments of the year were a soldier boy I found (and could not resist to buy) and two snowflakes I crocheted during the year. I did not visit my family for New Years since my parents were snowed in. For Valentines Day my husband gave me an edible bouquet and I took him golfing (his new golf bag didn't arrive in time.) Oh, and I did make heart sugar cookies of coarse.
For St. Patrick's day I wore a green shirt to work and a St. Patrick's Day button I bought back when I worked for a party supply store.
I have almost finished knitting a hat for a pregnant friend's baby (I will later post pictures when it is finished.)
Last night I ate at The Sugar Bowl for the first time. I had and amazing banana split with the best strawberry sauce and vanilla ice cream I have ever tasted! It was everything I would expect from an old fashioned icecream parlor. Mmmm.
