Hey y’all, and Happy Weekend! After a long and wonderful day of Michaels, Target, crafts,, and going out for a belated Valentine’s Day date with man-go-round, I’m not sitting by the fire plotting our trip to Arizona and hiding from the cold.

But before long, it will be spring. This week is already March (which I can’t believe), and soon comes Easter, St. Patrick’s Day, birthdays, the Pippi Longstocking exhibit at the American Swedish Insitute, and the birth of my new nephew.

The upcoming spring calls for celebration. Well, that, but also… decoration!

I used  combination of coupons and gift cards at Michael’s today to buy these fake flowers and twiggy wreath. My idea is to break apart the flowers into separate branches, and then sort of weave them into the wreath. Any other ideas for me?

Beyond my premature spring fever, there are more important things to discuss… like the SUGARBOWL.

We’re nearly to the end of round one. There is just one more chocolate match and one more candy match before we move on to round two. Last time, we did the wild card round and jelly beans took on candy corn for the “holiday candy” title. Who won?

jelly beans!

(ewwww) okay you jelly bellies- you win this time! I utterly despise jelly beans, along with skittles and mike and ikes and all of their similar ilk… but I believe deep in my heart that candy corn is a winner too. Okay, I’ll get over myself so we can vote on the next one:

sno-caps vs. whoppers!

Vote on, people… and tell me what you’re up to this weekend!

Cheers!
