The things I love

(Ack! I'm so sorry guys, my internet has been wonky since Thursday. On Friday I was able to actually get to blogger and start this post, and then the internet cut back out again.)
I love sitting inside wrapped in a blanket and drinking tea while it's raining outside.

I love making something beautiful out of what someone else might have considered trash (these were made out of magazine pages)I love that time of year when the flower blossoms are just starting to come out, and there's just a hint of hope that the world won't be frozen forever.
Two words: rainbow toe-socks. While they clash with everything, the point isn't for them to be seen; the point is that I know I'm wearing something bright and energetic and it is my own little secret.

As a knitter and a baker, I love the look of well done knitting and the smell of yeast.

As I get closer to my college graduation, I've really started to love being silly. I've been so focused on growing up and trying to appear older than I am that I forgot that it's good to laugh and enjoy myself.

I love a good to-do list. I don't always love doing the items on it, but there's something fulfilling about feeling like everything I need to do is mapped out and organized - though life is rarely so clean cut and easily defined. Maybe that's why I like it.


I love the very beginning of a trip, when it is full of possibilities and I'm looking forward to it. And I look forward to my return home, when I've had a chance to recharge but suddenly find myself appreciating my surroundings much more after a little time away.

On that note, I'm about to go to the city for spring break! Woohoo! This does mean I won't be able to be active in our discussion of what we want our theme for next week to be, and part of why this entry is so short. The other reason is that my internet has been wonky for the last 24 hours, and is still a bit patchy.

See all of you next week!
