Yesterday was a good day. I cycled through the snow to the KeeK to knit with the girls (and Brent) and sang Händel’s Messiah in the afternoon. The concert was good, the vibe too. The city looks beautiful in the snow. Today I’ve been inside and around the house most of the time. We made a bog snowman and our dog went completely crazy in the snow. Here’s a picture of our street taken from our bedroom window this afternoon:
And here’s a picture of me with my new mittens. I got them in a kit from Canada yesterday. I received them because I take part in something called the Hogwarts Sock Kit Swap and all the other goodies that were in the kit can be found here (will be a link when post is done). Go read about the swap! I’t an insight into the knitter’s interweb. It rocks!
My mum thinks I look cute, I think I look stupid, but of one thing I am sure, I LOVE these mittens. These mittens are my new best friends. They are pretty, and soft, and toasty, and they don’t make your hands sweat. Yay for the Olympics!

Since we didn’t leave the neighbourhood we didn’t get to see the inner city’s beauty in the snow. It was very pretty yesterday already but look at these pictures my friend Aart-Jan took this afternoon! We surely missed something there! The full set can be seen here, and these are my three favourites:
