more crochet

today elias got back into the mood, he had a clear idea about wanting to crochet a coaster for his water glass on the table. it was almost noon when he started with the little project i was thinking that he might want to use it for the dinner set up tonight, but o now! i was wrong, very wrong, it had to be done for the lunch table!
that meant a lot of quick helping hands on my side, in the middle of lunch preparations. but once more i was glad to help him along and it turned out very cute.
i guess the next time i should take my time to help amos get some knitting started, he expressed the interest a few days ago and i did not follow up on it...

we also went quickly to allandale farm this afternoon, to get a few pansies and potting soil, the pansies are planted and on the front porch! yeah, we made it before easter.
for the garden, we got carrot seed (scarlet nantes, they looked gorgeous on the seed package) and for an other box to start in the house, sweet basil. but that for an other day...
