March blues

I hate March.  It's my least favorite month for many reasons.  One, there are NO holidays to look forward too, or days off make it a four day week.  Two, you get days like Friday that totally tease you with the warm and sunshiny weather.  I get my flats out, roll my jeans up and feel like I can take over the world.  Then Monday comes, three days later with snow, rain and sleet. Gloom. Pure gloom again. 

Maybe because today is officially the first Day of Spring and it's snowing outside makes me feel gloomy.  You can see in the picture that it doesn't look anything like Spring.

 I know this unpredictable weather is typical of New England. I shouldn't be surprised, but every year I find myself in this situation. Stupid me. Can I blame it on the hormones this time?

Good news though.... March is almost over!

Anyways, to get me out of the gloom, I made more cupcakes. Yep, that's right, another two dozen. I think this shirt explains it all. 

Happy Monday friends. Hope the sun is shining brighter where you are!  What helps you with the seasonal blues and glooms?

new obsession

Well, actually I have two new obsessions, to be honest.  One, yellow cupcakes with chocolate frosting. I can't control the impulse right now. Two, Instagram photo app for the iphone.

I have been snapping away testing the different filters on this app for a week now. If you have access to it, download it. It's free and beware, it's addicting.

yes please.

and then there was one...

Maisey being pathetic, her specialty.

pushing spring.

the porch swing is calling my name today.

worship practice at church.

yet, another collection.

Off to work for a bit in the studio, then to that porch swing which is calling me and my bump. 

Happy Friday, friends!

Thankful Tuesday

• A girls night last night watching my guilty pleasure.  Yes, I am referring to the Bachelor finale!  Some may think it's shallow or a waste of time, but who cares what they think.

• a gradual warm-up here in CT which means I can start wearing some of my favorite flats again!

•  The to-do list getting smaller and smaller due to my husbands desire to make me happy.

• Yellow cupcakes with chocolate frosting (the newest craving these days).

•  A reminder from a friend about a verse which is specifically helpful today:   "My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry."  James 1:19

What are you thankful for this week?
