idle chatter

today in charlottesville it is melty and sunny.

this weekend it was snowy and cozy.

tashi and i started off saturday with a snowball fight and then went inside for the rest of the weekend. well, actually, i did leave the house once more to go to the salvation army. there i scored one of those wooden frames comprised of many little compartments of various sizes in which you place knick knacks, stones, shells and the like. i've always wanted one of these things so i was stoked. i don't know what they are called. not really a shadow box but. . . ?

for the remainder of the weekend i cleaned the house, cooked, played and watched olympics, olympics and more olympics. i haven't yet had my knitting lesson, but on sunday we sat in front of the tube making collages and watching snowboarders. my collage has a long way to go, but it was good not to be completely idle in front of the box.

i was touched when tashi and dan both agreed that making collages was their favorite part of the weekend.
