Week Six... Sort Of

This past week was an odd one. My supervisor was enjoying a (much needed) vacation in Spain and the person who was to look after me was off sick most of the week. So I spent most of my time working on things that I've already told you about- my research project and Anne's counterpane. But that's old news, so instead I will show you this instead.

Yes. Spring flowers! My Canadian brain does not understand. It's February, a time when I am used to snow, ice, and more snow.

I am not trying to gloat or make any of you feel cold. I took these photos during my lunch on a rare sunny day. I actually miss snow because it brightens things up. Here it is gray... a lot.

But I'll take the flowers for now.
