Scenes from provincial life

[callmemadam]

I've been too sad and mad to keep my journal up to date lately but here's some pics of books and knitting.
I wish my photos were as good as minniemoll's. First some glimpses of the book room.











This is just a small selection of what's in there and ignores all my other bookshelves...

Now two recently finished knitting projects.


Scarf!


Socks!

I join the chorus of envy over the book room. Mine are scattered all over the house, and subject to the depredations of those who disagree that books do furnish a room.

Snazzy socks.

Oh, but there are still books scattered all over the house, albeit mostly shelved. Every room is a book room but this one is dedicated.

Glad you like the socks.

When I finally got a futon base to go under the mattress I'd been sleeping on since February, I found a book under the mattress. I'd wondered where it had gotten to. Clearly I am not a princess.

It was Booth's Cocktail Handbook.

And you didn't miss it! I've bought a large bottle of vodka for Christmas.
