Seeing Red


February is the month we think of hearts and flowers. The month where the color red covers displays of cards, candy and flowers.

How clever of the American Heart Association (AHA) to use this month to bring the issue of women and heart disease to our attention.

So while you thinking of the valentine card and gift you are giving to your special someone, think of yourself, think of the women you know, visit AHA's, Go Red for Women. This site is full of helpful information on keeping our hearts healthy and happy.

And the photo. It's of a shawl I made using a bright red, super light yarn. Not terribly warm but oh so glam, it's perfect to wear tomorrow, Wear Red Day February 6th.
