The proper light for knitting fine wool is the first warm sunbeam of spring!

Got mine yesterday. Hope everyone else gets theirs soon.

We have some today - not too warm but nice and sunny! It has been so
grey and rainy this winter that this is very welcome. I is actually
supposed to stay this way all week. WE could use it. (I agree that it
is MUCH easier to knit with the sun shining in over my shoulder.

I can't complain about the winter weather here in Manitoba. We had the
warmest January on record, and most days it was around 0°C give or take a
couple of degrees. Didn't care for the freezing rain though. It was very
sunny today, we had 2 Chickadees and a female Hairy Woodpecker come around,
checking out the special "nutty" suet cake I put out especially for
woodpeckers. We also had a number of sparrows, but they are merely
tolerated. I feed them because if I feed the others, they are allowed here
too.

I find my Ott light works for me.... I'm knittng that Peacock Feathers
shawl right now, and the yarn is very fine.

This is a good day - I treated myself to a Turkish Delight chocolate bar and
a glass of white wine. Yummmmmmm. ;)

Are you trying make us all envious? It sounds very yummy and I don't even
know what Turkish Delight is.

I missed Shelagh's original post, which is just as well. I don't like
Turkish Delight, but Keith does. SO he eats the bar, and I drink the wine.
It works for us. g

I must say I'd rather not have them together, but I do enjoy both.
And speaking of chocolates - I recently did one of those Ebay things where I
have to spend the money, and the seller came back and said she'd overcharged
me for postage, what should she do. So after a couple of days of doing
nothing I suddenly remembered a US chocolate I used to be able to get
(Nutrageous) and then couldn't, so she's sending me some of those to the
value of what she owes me. Isn't THAT just the coolest thing?
