A spoonful of ...

I love shopping at Marshall's. I don't get to very often though, only when I go out of town. That is probably a good thing. There is something so satisfying about finding treasure among the 4:00 p.m. Saturday carnage of the houseware section. This fabulous sugar is my latest find. I adore the jar, the label, the graphics...gush, gush, gush. And you know the old saying, if one is good, two is even better.

So the red had to come home with me too. I'll trot it out for Christmas and Valentine's. The pink however gets to stay out year round. But of course!

Sick as...

Hello dear friends, sorry it has been forever and a day since I last posted. We have been taking turns being sick around my house over the last two weeks. I'm sure many of you can relate. Little to nothing has gotten accomplished, unless you count fever sleep and fever dreams. All of those plans for dazzling homemade Valentines fell by the wayside in exchange for barely coherent scribbling slapped onto some boxed paper hearts from Target. There were some Pixy Stix involved, so all was not lost. I even failed to make a Pink Saturday post this past week. The only thing pink in my world on Saturday was a bottle of Pepto, yet I don't think that would have been very appropriate subject matter. I feel like we are on the other side of the crud, so hopefully things can get back to normal...whatever that is.
Hope you and yours are warm and well.

Valentine Pals of Mine

I'm working on a little Valentine project, and these vintage beauties are my inspiration. Can you guess which one I'm going to use? I'll show you my little creation in my next post. And no, you will not have to wait until next Saturday to see it. This is the week that I will not be a one post wonder. I'm not saying it's going to be like tomorrow or anything, but at least before next Saturday. Okay?
