Not Complaining

• It was sunny and warm enough outside to open the windows. I'm sure we have one more snowfall lurking, but Spring is on it's way
• Brian bought a new camera, it's on its way. I was somewhat frustrated with the old ones capabilities, so I hope this one is a little better.
• Brian is feeling a lot better. We still don't know what was causing the painful joints, but the rapid onset seemed to point to a bacterial infection rather than something like rheumatoid arthritis and the antibiotics are helping.
• I have a small order of Wonderland fabric coming from Hip Fabric and am planning some spring outfits for Ivy.
• I want to try cutting back on wheat. I tried it a few years ago with moderate success. I'm having problems with psoriasis and wonder if diet might be a link. I don't eat sandwiches or pasta that much, but I've been trying to do more baking with the girls--resulting in muffins and banana bread and delicious chewy bread and butter. And pretzels are my big downfall snack that I sometimes eat in the evening by handfuls (and more handfuls and more). Then again, maybe I should just stop eating pretzels by the handfuls.
• in the same attempting to be healthy vein, I want to cut down on my evening wine consumption and replace it with herbal tea (written the morning after an evening of wine drinking and late into the night web surfing). Sort of a spring resolution since I don't seem to be keeping any of the New Year ones. Did I even make any?
• it's time to start thinking about a garden again--maybe some beets this year? I love beet greens, I wish you could buy them the way you do turnip and collard greens.

we just got those Wonderland fabrics at the fabric store where I work. It took a lot of intestinal fortitude to keep myself from buying one of everything.

I TOLD you about the wheat! argh! I feel fine, but still I wonder...

We got beet greens last year from City Fresh, but they were not our favorites. I think they came in the fall.
