Another season begins

On our drive home Sunday night, from dinner with family, we drove along Lake Rd in Lakewood. The section with all the BIG houses nearing the river. I noticed it was trash night, meaning many homeowners put out Monday's trash, next to the road, the night before. I have grown somewhat accustomed to scanning the "tree lawn", as it is called, in an effort to spot a real prize. The 2010 season started with a bang!

A Rody Horse for Louisa. Jef pulled over and I climbed out to retrieve the gold. I put it beside Lu and told her it was hers. As we continued home I noticed that she rested her hand on her Rody Pony. She was so happy! She squealed with delight when we arrived home and let her ride.

I'm a Winner

My good friend Candace is just amazing! She is so creative and inspires me and builds my own creative confidence. She has a successful ETSY shop with lots of neat handmade goodies. She recently hosted a give away on her blog sponsored by Yoreganics

and I WON!

I'm seriously so excited. When do we ever win? I can't wait to try out my soap nuts.



I've never heard of them, but I'll let you know what I think. Some might say I am a laundry snob. So, my testimony is good :)
