Rain, Kanoko Ami Pants and A Simple Supper

1   Tremendous storms today and although Tom Lehrer says, “The weather always looks worse through a window,” I did not venture out to discover if he was right today but took these photos from the front porch.

2    I took advantage of staying indoors to finish off another pair of Kanoko Ami pants for Grand-baby B. These should see her through the summer. I’ve knitted them in the softest bamboo cotton mix and I have almost finished a cardigan to wear with them.

3    Asparagus is now in season and a lovely summery contrast to the wintery weather outside. We had Asparagus and Pesto Pasta with Toasted Almonds and Parmesan Shavings – truly scrumptious!
