happy easter!!!

 VERY COOL!!! bernie got me an easter basket!!! i haven't had one of them in over 40 years! wow.
i had said something about i wanted one, just kidding around. cause i used to make them up for mom and dad and bernie........
this is what i woke up to this morning!!! this is love.......he heard me!
he saved his ciggie money and bought me an easter basket!
even though there is chocolate in it (he'll eat that) and peeps (he'll eat that too) it's got robins egg malt balls and a stuffed duck.......and the baskets (there are two in there) are VERY VERY pretty......i love them!
just the fact that he thought of me made my day.

now we're just in from putting ducks out......amelia is pissy broody, pru is skitterish, lilli and phoebe both love their momma and their wormies..... malcom asserted his manly ego by half heartedly grazing for worms when he discovered there really isn't a back way out of the garden and back up to the women........and falstaff JUMPED into the upper pond without threats and took a bath........ sniff, it's enough to make a duck momma's heart sing!

my chickens are happily laying their eggs and eating breakfast, the cats are playing tag, and the budgies are chirping to each other good morning......

life is very good right now
(and so is the coffee bernie made me-now he's making breakfast for us)

he rented 'the king's speech' and some star trek movie (when spock and them first got together) i watched a bit of each, and they were good...... i don't know why i can't sit through tv shows or movies... even with knitting!

and speaking of knitting, i am up to row 93 on damask, i did the last 'nupp' replacements with purple beads, i think that's it for nupps.... if not then the next ones will be either orange or red
i would like to finish damask soon
i need to block it and aeolian....... i swear it would have been faster to send aeolian to lotta in sweden to block for me!
have a wonderful day everyone
i hope you all got as nice a surprise as i did!

  2. Very pretty basket, what a nice surprise. We had a nice Easter, 4 of our 5 kids came for dinner (the married son went to his in-laws). We ate a turkey dinner, then watched a couple of videos.

    Happy Easter.
