Just a quick stop in to participate in Joyce's Friday Pretties. This is the last day of school for my ladies and it is jam-packed action from last night through our big Washington D.C. trip next week (and the HUGE dinner party I have planned two days after we return!).
I am looking so forward to summer. Both girls want to sew....independently! Yikes! They saw an article on soap-making and are begging to try it and they are looking forward to canning our garden veggies. When did they decide to go all "Little House on the Prairie?" Should I dress them in calico and bonnets this summer?
This odd disembodied hand is showing of my Friday Pretty. It is a very cool ring picked up in the local antiques booth of this blogger. She has a very well merchandised booth in a very cool antique store near me. I picked up this ring and a matching necklace along with a bunch of larger items from this blogger (who also has a beautiful booth at the same store). Anyway, I chatted with the booth owner and the clerk for a bit and then we all got distracted and my lovely jewelry was left behind.
Imagine my delight and surprise when I finally made it back out there to pick it up and the lovely ladies at the store had tucked a gift certificate for the fabulous and delicious cupcake store next door! Not paying attention to my own parcels was totally my own fault but they felt badly. The cupcake gift was completely unexpected, totally unnecessary and completely made my day! The coconut lime cupcake was delicious and eaten before I could take a picture. It would have qualified as a Friday Pretty on its own!
Happy Friday to all!
