Oh... my favorite! Pesto, pine nut, sundried tomato, and goat cheese pizza, getting home early to spend time with my little family, and starting my first batch of bread from the Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day!
I'm smiling as I sit in my warm and cozy home watching the bright orange sun set over the valley outside of my window. Thank you for sharing your cheerful tulips with us. And congratulations to Emily on your new baby boy.
What a lovely sign of spring flowers are in winter! Right now, pink and red paper being cut into valentine's is adding color to the gray feb. sky for me.
Those are gorgeous! Sunshine is making me happy today. We haven't really had much in WEEKS and it finally came out today. I opened the blinds up in the living room and the cat and I have been basking in the sunny patches :)
I know I can always rely on you for a good green injection but you've excelled yourself without even knowing...both my favourite colours in one photo. I'm really happy as I've just designed and made my first dress - no pattern, no tutorial just a bright idea.
Your blog...always so inspiring! Oh, and there was a glitch last week, so I was treated to 3 years of your past posts by accident! It made for a few hours of good reading:)
Tulips and orange - two personal favorites of mine! Oh how I needed to see those today. For me, it's making me smile that it's Thursday, which means the craziest part of my work week is behind me, and I'm looking forward to a weekend of cooking and crafting. And warmer weather!
What has me smiling? When my cat is really happy, he likes to stand close and have one of his back feet on top of my foot. That is what made me smile today...
Thanks for bringing me a smile today! Those are beautiful.

between your tulips and the sun outside my window, i'm smiling and thinking about the fact that spring may actually be right around the corner!
Are you still okay with the sign ups, throw some work on me!
