Grandma Grethe's Art

I like to think my daughters got some of their artistic drawing abilities from their Great Grandmother Grethe, I really like her Christmas cards she made especially.

A week off from "schkwork" and am got to hang with girls! Not just my 2 daughters, but my mom, gramma and cousin, and my mother-n-law, an auntie and a dear childhood girlfriend! Fun little outtings and taking time to care for myself with a trip to my chiropractor, ahhh. Getting 'back' to myself.

Got the pair of ceramic snails at West Elm!

La Panier's Macarons

We got to eat macarons from Kristi Drake's bakery last weekend as my brother Eric and T-Jay (the light of his life I must add), hung out on a very foggy day downtown and they brought a box of them to the party, perfection! Oh my, melt in your mouth yummy! Get yourself down to the Le Panier Very French Bakery at the Pike Place Market, try to stop at just macarons! Dare ya!

The real deal.

A quote for today

I am going to start with a quote that I read this morning, "When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on." - Thomas Jefferson. In fact, that is all I will post for today as it sums it up pretty good! Today is my day to swing from the trees, wheeeeeeeeee!
