POTD

Picture of the day ...is our first "real snowfall" of 2013. 
These pictures are from Thursday January 24th. Unfortunately, these were the pictures taken when I was leaving to take the kids to school. By they time they came home...it had melted :(

But while I'm typing...it's snowing again....expected 1-2 inches & the temp is 18 degrees & dropping!!! Can't wait to make watch the kids play in the snow so that I can take pics (hee hee).

Who would have "thunk it"??? Shots???

........I never would have never thunk  thought that Dunkin' Donuts has SHOTS!!! Dunkin' Donuts is my daily stop in the morning & some afternoons. I order the same coffee every single day since as long as I've been drinking coffee...maybe 25 years /??? Large regular medium roast coffee with six cream & six sugars  (down to 5 & 5 since December). Yup light & sweet!~ But this morning when I walked in the male "Barista" (do you call guys that??) said I looked really tired...He asked if I wanted a shot added to my coffee. For those that know me, for a brief moment I had thoughts of Ciroc/Patron/Grey Goose (hee hee)... I said SURE!!! 
So, I drank half of the cup & instantly I felt alive.

Now, that shot is actually called a "Turbo Shot" & it gives coffee a extra jolt! Now, I'm not going to add this to my daily coffee consumption...so, I'll leave it up the "Barista" !

BTW...I'll definitely have to ask why they are still using the Holiday cups LOL!

RCS#20 Challenge "Sparkle"

While I had time this past weekend to read several blogs...I found a challenge blog called Red Carpet Studio, so I thought I'd try their Red Carpet Studio Challenge #20 which is based on the movie "Sparkle". The challenge is to "bling out" a layout.

Pictured is my "Snow Day" layout. I pulled out my stash collection of Bo Bunny Snowfall pattern paper & rhinestones. Used Chatterbox (remember them) ribbon, My Minds Eye All is Bright buttons from Rhonna Farrer & Little Yellow Bicycle Fabric Glitter stickers.

This photo is of KK boy & KK girl after a snow storm in 2011.


I even pulled out my Fiskar punch & created lots snowflakes in various colors.
