For Warmth

I was very cold in Edinburgh, so Andreas bought me a cashmere scarf.  I love it - the colors are me, and it's so soft.  It also kept me warm the rest of the week we were in Britain.

On To February

February is started now.  These months are bigger than last year's, so it's taking me longer for each one.  I've got a pretty good start here, though.

Pho In Manchester

After looking around the Christmas markets a bit, we realized we were hungry.  We had no clue what we wanted to eat, so we ducked into the old Corn Exchange and found a pho restaurant.  Both of us decided pho would be a good idea on a chilly evening, so that's what we had.  It was good!  The drink is a mojito made with Vietnamese liquors.  We both slurped up all our pho and went back out to downtown Manchester and walked more Christmas markets, all warmed up inside.

Impoverished Fridge, Good View

When we checked in to the AC Hotel in Manchester, they told us we'd been upgraded.  We thought "oh, nice!" They told us the fridge had been stocked.  This is a photo of the stocked fridge.  We were there for one night only, and we did have a nice view of Old Trafford and the Salford Quays.



Celtic Scarf

Andreas' parents gave me this scarf for Christmas.  It's beautiful and lightweight and I'll definitely use it when we get to somewhere a bit cooler.

About Halfway

This is such a quick project!  I'm already nearly halfway done.  I think it's looking pretty good.

Squirrel!

I found this cute little squirrel in Keswick in December.  Now I want to make it.
