Here are the two temperature scarves, as of the last day of winter. The high scarf has more colors, though I have taken the yarn for the 0-9 and 10-19 ranges away – we’re hopefully past the point of needing those anymore. I have not yet taken anything out of the low temp scarf […]
It’s several years after the first story in this series, where Penric accidentally gained a demon, and therefore became a sorcerer. He and Desdemona (the demon) have gotten to know each other better, and how to work together. He’s also been fully invested as a temple divine, serving in the Princess-Archdivine’s temple.

This was the weekend of our annual pie-based party down in MA, and this year, which I think has been the first time in three or four years, the snow was melted enough that the snowdrops were up in our friends’ neighbor’s yard. Yay green things!
I’ve been very bad about keeping track of what’s been going on this month, mostly because it doesn’t seem like much – it’s all indoor stuff. The weather is just now sort of starting to signal it might be warming up. So I cast on these mitts nearly a month ago. The pattern is Darryl
I’m so behind in posting, but here’s what we did on our last full day in Florida. This is not the biggest zoo I’ve ever been to, but it’s really well done. Nice habitats for the animals, and just the right speed for the two year old. Definitely worth a trip with kids.

I’m back from a very delightful break from winter in Florida. My sister and niece were there as well (we stayed with my father and C at their condo), which was so much fun. You can really have a conversation with her now. I’m sorry they’re not closer so we can have them
This is the second books in the Queens of Renthia series. Delaina has come to the throne as the last survivor of all the heirs in Aratay. And while she is young and should have many years ahead of her to reign, she finds she has contracted the False Death. When she has spells, the

This is the fourth book in a series about the daughter of the first woman president. I received the first one as a gift in middle school, and read the other two quite a while ago. It took me a while to track this fourth one down (and it was written quite a while after
