Secret gardens and gateways into the future

Just watched the secret garden movie from 1993. Wouldn't it be lovely to have a secluded blossoming garden where all the animals are friends to play with and magic can solve anything?

I can just imagine the climbing roses and the swing over the pond. The little deer snacking on a carrot and me lying in the sun while the birds sing their songs. Lilacs and peonies and lots of buttercups. Juniper and oaks all coming together into a great peaceful place where anything can come to pass... Just imagine...



Making great headway on Roshni's wedding shawl. I decided to do hers not in a thin flimsy lace, but a nice variegated jitterbug yarn. And the lace pattern looks like gates with gold curtains hanging in them and lights above. Since she will have her great big Hindoestani wedding I decided it would be fitting to call it gateways into the future. For she could use a bit of splendid life with the crap she had to endure with her family. So I'm weaving in a little magic while knitting, for her to have a great marriage to a bloke who will do her right!
