Projects for this long winter

I've got more things started to keep me busy till spring.. Knitting projects that i did for Christmas, now doing a sweater for myself.. A pile of library books to wade thru, and something i started last fall.. I knew we were having out-of-town company for Christmas and bought red hyacinth bulbs to force for the holidays.. according to directions, I refrigerated them, planted and chilled them, and brought them out. They should have bloomed for Christmas, but no sign of life.. Finally a couple weeks ago, they sprang to life.. No idea when they'll bloom, will keep you posted..
