I got a new, warm, down Kenneth Cole coat. Very Euro. My old coat's zipper broke, and I can't wear wool coats because of my dog's tireless (and I am sure intentional) shedding. I like it. Cold Iowa winter - bring it on!

I also got myself some in-house bootie slippers. Makes me think of Scandinavian fjords.

And I started a new project - star-crossed slouchy beret. The Malabrigo yarn I am using is so soft and fun to knit with.

And I had to share with you an Awww-worthy moment. The other night, I heard my hubby singing a sweet tune, and when I sneaked in the living room, I caught this tender moment. My hubby was singing to our puppy (while playing with his ears). My heart completely melted.
