The Little Things That Make Me Happy

















I have started making some new knitted items that I like to call Dread Wraps. They can be used to hold dreadlocks or can be worn as a neckwarmer, earwarmer, hat, etc. I was inspired when we went to an outdoor Wailers concert this past weekend, and there were so many people with dreads.

The Little Things that make me happy:
The mornings when I wake up, and there are new groceries to look forward too, such as these juicy red strawberries.

The surprise I found in our sink the other day. We had soaked some beans for dinner, and a few got away and were hiding out in our sink, and they sprouted! So I planted them next to a house plant, and suddenly, within a few days, the sprouts had doubled in size!

And the short table we have by the window that is filled with nothing but bright green plants. Even if it's still shades of gray and brown outside, at least it's bright green in my house! I can't wait for it to actually feel like spring is here, so far the outlook is not good for this week. We can look forward to more snow and rain!!! Rain actually might be nice, it will help with the brown and gray shades outside and maybe bring out some green shoots of new life.
