This morning I got out of my car at work and crossed the parking lot into the camellia forest.
It was beautiful with blooming flowers.
And little critters were enjoying frolicking through the blossoms.
These double blooms were so beautiful that I had to invite them into my office for the day.
Then when I got home I settled in for a relaxing evening of sock knitting.
The stuff that happened in the middle of my day is hardly worth mentioning.
Have a great weekends folks!
I wish I had the patience to knit! My mom spins, and it is so fascinating. So envious! Thanks for stopping by!

I have days like that - yesterday the kids and I spent the day at Fernbank until about two an then around 8 we had a nice dinner at home - everything else - who knows (or would be interested?) I thought of you last weekend as we visited my in-laws in Warner Robins. Of course we stopped by Creative Yarns on the way - Heck I wasn't going to suffer the visit without SOME compensation right?
The store looks great and I heard hey are about to move - I can't wait to check out their new place.
Camelias are lovely - I love how they bloom in winter here in the south - kind of like a promise hat spring will actually get here.

Felicia, those camelias are gorgeous and I just love your blog! It's so bright and pretty. I will never buy a plate hanger again now that you've shown me how to make my own!
It's great to meet new blogging friends!

Hi Felicia :)
I haven't seen Camillias in forever! I love them, but I don't think they grow in Ohio. I'll have to check :)
I hope your day ended well and I'm sorry about whatever it was that wasn't worth mentioning.
