Signs of spring?

Not really. It's cold and snowy here, and the only one thrilled about that is Katie. The tulips in the above picture are from my Dad. His Christmas gift to us was one of those bulb-of-the-month deals. I totally love this idea--fresh flowers in the house all the time. Plus, they last forever. Plus I can plant them outside later when it's warm.

In the meantime, not much knitting happening here--i.e., since school resumed last week. Over the weekend I finished one of the Broadripple socks and started the second. I also knit and unknit at least a gazillion times the gusset for that gray sock there on the right. More about that soon.
