PlazaJen: Passion Knit

I always think of birthdays (even more so than New Year's) as a fresh start.

Looking over my shoulder at the last month, I think it's an understatement to say there's nothing more necessary right now than a start so fresh, daisies grow out its butt.

And that's just a Hallmark image for ya, huh? Well, it's my birthday. We'd always hold back some sparklers from the 4th for me to light & burn my hands with on my birthday as well. I can still smell 'em. Did I ever tell you about the time I thought it would be smashing to put sparklers, instead of candles, on a birthday cake for a guy I dated (briefly) in college? Yeah. That's not advisable. It sets off smoke alarms..... Just an FYI.
