Waiting for Spring


This photo is from Kristin Espinasse's regular e-mail called French Word-a-Day. I love the juxtaposition of the work boots and the glorious Spring flowers. No beauty comes this close to home without some effort. Waiting for the day when I put on those books and dig in to my Spring garden. Waiting for Spring . . . .

Wedding Blog - Not Mine!


One of our librarians-in-training shared her wedding countdown blog with me recently. It is too sweet and clever not to pass on. Could there be some ideas here that we can use? How creative is the use of old books and date due pockets for invitations! I know I will be checking back regularly to see what appears! Enjoy!
Our countdown to July 1, 2011 has begun!

Groundhog Day


The groundhog says spring will be early and I swear that I can hear the entire northeast whispering "Hooray!" after what has been a tough winter so far. We had a snow day here but the promised storm has not been as bad as predicted, at least here in suburban Buffalo. Lucky for me that a sweet he-man showed up to clear the snow off my drive and sidewalks. He knows that I am under the weather and graciously took on a few hours of work to make sure the snow was completely removed.

My Beautiful Hometown!

Check out this video from the Buffalo Niagara Visitors and Convention Bureau on the delights of my beautiful city: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT11IdWPvfc
I had the pleasure of visiting one of the galleries in this video last night. Several artists have a consortium to show their work monthly downtown in Allentown. I bought someone a Christmas present there, but I cannot divulge who it is for . . . . yet!

Paris and Provence Ahhhhh!
















Ten days in Paris and Provence with two sweet friends! What a glorious way to end the summer! We had so many laughs, gasps (at the beauty around us) and made memories that we will share for years. Merci to my deux amis, Belle and Susan!
