When I saw this scarf at Simply Modern Mom, I knew I had to try it. It really took no time at all.

I am so proud of myself!! I actually followed a crochet pattern and completed a project. 

I’m going to try another one with a different type of yarn. Maybe something a little fuzzy.
 
Check one New Year’s goal off the list!

Once again we awake to more snow. Never mind the temp gauge on the shed door that perpetually reads 30°F… It’s currently a balmy 19°F.  It’s actually quite beautiful out.

Of course, we’d never heard the plow go through during the night so we never guessed there was a bunch of snow in the driveway. Lucky for my husband, I know how to run the snowblower properly now. He could just ram through the berm at the end and slip-slide to work again once again.

So I made a big mug of tea before heading out. It was the perfect temp by the time I finished.

I should probably invest in some proper snow gear one of these years. But for now…hiking boots and jeans seem to fit the bill.

Go see what my Tea Tuesday friends are doing today. Head over to the new page on Kimmie’s blog.

This was made from stuff I had in my scrap bucket.  I’m trying to back to making art but sometimes I feel as if I’m trying too hard. Maybe I just need to let it happen.

He lost his tuxedo…so my 8yr old found this ensemble for him.
***I must apologize in advance to all the die-hard Barbie/Ken fans out there.***
It is kind of amusing though….in a weird 80’s glam rock sort of way….

I just realized that I published my Friday Freebie…on Thursday. That’s what happens when I try to get ahead for once…I mess it up.

Here’s today’s freebie. Or you could just scroll down. :)

I’m trying to get back into my groove after the Holiday’s.

So far this postcard is all I have to show for my efforts.

Running a little behind today…I had to fill in at the school library.

While I was out I stopped by my PO Box and found a wonderful piece of Mail Art from Linda.
 
The packaging is outstanding! I sat and savored it with my tea before opening.

Linda is so sweet…I left a comment on her blog a while back saying how much I loved the mail art she had received.
She emailed me and asked for my address so she could send me some mail art too!

Inside I found these wonderful bits of ephemera and an ATC.
I never expected such an awesome piece of mail art with little gifties inside as well!

Thanks so much Linda!
