hello to trying a Mexican Mocha this week

hello to my coffee table that has turned into Legoland

hello to a little girl who tells me "she is feeling very lovable to me"
hello to a new (borrowed) book that I can't wait to read

hello urge to spring clean everything

hello to an impromptu bagpipe concert on our way to the grocery store

hello to strawberry ice cream cones

hello to precious old family photos that I've never seen before
hello to the yummiest vegetarian chili (those are sweet potatoes!!) I've ever tasted

Ohhhhhh, I feel the same way. I love our talking Wednesdays!!! Yesterday I got an email asking me to teach today and I was just crushed thinking I would miss our talk. Luckily, her kids got better and so all is well today! :) See you soon, friend!

Hi Kristen~ So enjoy your blog! Love the Easter garland. It gave me a great idea to do with our grand daughter next week for our craft project. H & H are just adorable! Love to "peek" in and see what fun and adventures are next. Hugs from Ohio...

I love your hello. It was very cheery for today's gray day. We're enjoying Lucky Charms for tomorrow's breakfast, and I baked more gingerbread cookies of course. Better go decorate them now!

How fun is this?! :) I LOVE your hope and outlook! Glancing out our window this morning I saw sunshine!! Perhaps, just maybe, spring will be coming soon!

Have a beautiful day!

Kristen, this post is one of my favorites! How fun... slice of life, but presented in such a unique way! Wanted to tell you the crepes from Gwen's birthday are a super simple recipe, just egg, flour and milk for the crepe, and then I put chopped banana with a bit of lemon juice and some cinnamon sugar inside. :-)
