This morning I chose RED - the ultimate power color. It's a biological indicator of health, fertility, and virility. It's associated with blood, and guts, and glory. It can be scary. Intimidating.

I was drawn to it today probably because I have been watching the Handmaid's Tale series on Hulu. The handmaids wear red from neck to ankle, probably to symbolize their fertility. They are forced to be resilient to survive. It dawned on me this morning, if Gilead didn't want the handmaids to rebel ultimately, why did they make them wear red? Pink would have sufficed. Hahaha. I'm glad Margaret Atwood gave them red. There's hope there.

So today I pulled out one of my very first CSGMs - Patchwork Horse - which has a really wonderful overall red vibe. I started the day at 4:45am with some long-wished for quiet time to do some journaling, followed by shawl repair, some work, then a hair cut. I took myself out for a lunch alone (highly recommend that on occassion!) wolfed down some very healthy protein and fruit, then had a massage.

While waiting I was able to finish a chapter in another very good read by Margaret Atwood - The Penelopiad.
I find strength in hearing about the stories of women who have persevered. Ofred / June and Penelope are heroes.

As those of us in the states know - today is tax day and we did knot get good news from the CPA.
What’s a Scarfie to do? Well - this one washed a scarf. A new to me scarf (yes I had scarf mail - I finally succumbed to the siren call from last week), last week was too tempting!

As I was ironing it, I thought of my grandmother and my mother - two strong women who faced adversity. They would both love this scarf. They both love birds and so do I!
But I do have a point here - so onward Cookie!

The dandelion - the bane of many a gardener - pops its cheery yellow mane everywhere. It will grow wherever its seeds land, and it doesn’t care if you spray it with chemicals - it will just pop back up right next to where it was.
It’s determined to survive. IT knows that it might be the first flower a child picks to give to its mum, in all of its happy yellow glory. It’s seeds are grown in fabulous puffs that float right off after being enthusiastically blown by a child (or me). And you can even eat the greens or make dandelion wine!

So here’s to the strong resilient dandelion!
And birds!

Congratulations!! I love that border and we are sisters as I have the red (also powerful) version 😊
Tax was a month ago for me, so I go for only bargain scarfs in April 🫣

Thank you for lovely comments, Maedi, Croisette, Cookie, Jereni, Lellabelle and EtsyBoss 🥰🙌. Jereni you made me laugh out loud w your ‘mother of grails’ comment. 😂😍
I’ve been managing late work hours and these power scarves are helping.
Today is ELeK, new scarf mail from a few weeks ago and a nice new member of my Elek family: happy to be twins w many of you. Now, if I could only do that knot that Jereni does so nicely 🤔.

Good morning!

I am dogsitting these days and just went on a morning walk with puppie and DD. Dont know if colliers des chiens is a power scarf (collars could be interpreted as such..hmm) but I am rather powerless in the paws of this cutie
