Not much to say about what I'm doing this summer. Working 2 jobs mainly. I do have time to spin and knit and teach spinning classes in between but that is about it for me. I do have a vegetable garden that I'm praying does really well. Its new so we will see. Love reading your posts...Enjoy your beautiful weather. Love your pictures..Beautiful dandelions also.

If you're looking for a recipe with a yellow PS theme, I just made some dandelion bread which was yum! I found the recipe here - http://fat-of-the-land.blogspot.com/2009/04/dandy-time-in-neighborhood.html I am looking forward to the next direction for Project Spectrum, and the focus on spring!

I must say, though, that East has been going on pretty much all the time here. My wedding colors are yellow and grey, and they're pretty much all I've been working with, in projects from my homemade wedding flowers, homemade thank you notes, quilt squares for our guest quilt, to a felt laptop case I have in the works. I'm so excited! I'm also starting a cardigan for my mom, and she picked out a lovely, goldenrod yarn. I can't wait!

I am looking forward to participating in Project Spectrum more this element, as life (hopefully) slows down a bit for the summer. Beautiful pictures, as always!

The colors of East are perfectly fitting for this time of year - right about now I always get the urge to knit something yellow or gold, even though they aren't usually what I think of as "my colors".

If people understood how beneficial they are, maybe they'd like them more. Dandelions often pop up in soil that's overly compacted and doesn't allow deep, healthy root growth. They have long, strong tap roots that break through the hard soil and when they die the roots leave space where air, water and nutrients can get past that hard barrier and reach deep down. And that allows other, more delicate (and more 'desireable') plants to grow strong. Yay dandelions. And the young greens taste good too! I love dandelions too.
