Spring Seems to Have More Than Sprung

by Alison on March 31, 2010

I’m no fan of winter, but a Minnesota March with no snow is simply unheard of.  It seems unnatural.  I find myself hesitating to wash and pack away the heavy winter coats.  I’ve done it before, washed through everything after a week in the 50′s and sneaking up into the 60′s, only to face the following [...]

Ok, Here We Go

by Alison on March 24, 2010

by Alison on March 8, 2010

Tissue Paper Flowers- Think Spring!

by Alison on March 5, 2010

It’s time to think spring! With temps climbing up around 40 degrees (yes, that’s warm up here), and more minutes of sunlight every day, it’s finally time to take down the snowflakes, the snowmen, the scenes of winter wonderland, and even the tiny sweaters that speak the language of ice and snow. It’s time to [...]
