What are you up to this weekend?  I have/had grand plans of taking Bella to Mardi Growl to let her strut her stuff, but the weather forecast is awfully dismal (29 and snowy), so snuggling up in bed may be a better option… But I am very very excited for my good friend Cathy to visit from Philadelphia and my lovely Aunt Sherry to join us from Kentucky; because having great people around always makes life all the more wonderful!

If you’re stuck inside in wintry weather, here are a few interesting things to entertain…

Have you heard of the Happsters? Spreading happiness is always a good thing in my book.

interesting insights on Stay at Home Moms and Working Moms and why it’s best for all involved to support the hard work behind each family’s individual choices.

Home decor DIY? Yes please!

Don’t these beautiful flowers make you dream of spring?

This book and this book are going on my must read list to educate and inspire my healthy lifestyle and love of cooking. (more on that coming up…)

Wishing happy times to you!
