It's a damp puddly day here. There are still tiny pockets of winter left here and there....but mostly the trend is warming and raining now and again. The perfect kind of day to relax with a movie and bit of knitting......hmm I do have a little project that needs some finishing off. So I'll find my cozy sweater (it's still a bit coolish out) and leave you with this little Meme I spotted from over at Merry With Children. Ginger has already curled up for a relaxing afternoon. Never having done one of these before.........here goes.....
