I have been extremely lax in posting. I have, however, been doing things. Here's a brief overview of the last month or so, from left to right:

• Nathan and I went to Florida for spring break to visit my dad. We visited the Ringling museum and mansion as we often do.
• We went to a local B&B that my mom gave us a gift certificate to for Christmas. There was a swing in the woods.
• I started a ripple blanket like lots of other people. More on that in its own post.
  

I have also been reading. Isn't that what you're supposed to do on vacations? Although, I have to admit, most of this reading was done in the last couple days. I've been spending too much time rippling to do much reading. As least I've almost caught up on my podcasts.

I read three new Kim Stanley Robinson books, not just the one that I have below. I didn't want to add them all since by book list is looking a little one-sided. I started the Science in the Capital series as well as reading Antarctica. Then last weekend I went on a bit of a Barbara Kingsolver jag. I suddenly had the urge to reread Prodigal Summer, which I first read about a year ago, so I read it pretty much in one sitting on Saturday. Then, when I was done, I needed more so I figured it was the time to finally start The Poisonwood Bible. I read the first 500 pages of that on Sunday and finished it up Monday and Tuesday.
