Ode to Starbuck Peppermint Mocha

Tis the season to drink and be merry!! So here I present to you my photo nod to all things perfect - the Starbucks Peppermint Mocha - true perfection!



A new Dark Chocolate (yup you read that right - DARK) iced peppermint mocha frappuccino:



And next year, you can increase your Starbucks love by searching for these lovely village decorations!! It's just too too sweet.



Even a hand cart! I so need one of these outside my business year round (just a tad larger though).


If you still need more, try this Peppermint Mocha Recipe I found on-line and you too might become a barista.

Cookie Got Cutter-ed

There is a wonderful little children's hair studio that really too cute to avoid. It's a national chain called Cookie Cutters and if you have little ones you really must try it. They have unique little cars and trains for little folks to sit in while getting their cuts and a movie/game setup at each station. The results, tearless haircuts and great photo opportunities.

Now doesn't that Sweet little Cookie just look sweet enough to kiss?

All My Friends are Flakes

Got to love interactive projects. You know those times when you should be doing something serious and find yourself helpless surfing the web. Heres a fun Snowflake Creator that allows you to cut up a sheet of paper like we did in grade school and preview and save a virtual paper copy.

Here's my latest masterpiece:



So come on, all my flaky friends, make your own and send me a link to yours.

Push My Buttons

I'm the luckiest woman on earth today. And I get to push my own buttons - that is if I want a nice toasty warm ride and I get outside within 20 minutes of pushing it!

I spent the morning happily knitting in the Ford Dealership waiting room having my Christmas Gift installed. A REMOTE CAR STARTER!!



Aren't they just beautiful!!!

Back in early days of TV, there used to be a cartoon of a dog who bounced around and then floated slowly to earth when he got a bone. I so-o-o-o know the feeling. Who knew that pushing my buttons would be so great!

The Land of OZ just got better

There are many ways to skip down to the land of OZ. Here's one way....



If you aren't the type to dress-up, I'd recommend watching the new mini-series on Sci-Fi channel, call "Tin Man". It aired last night and runs for three nights I believe. It's very, very good. Great twist on the classic story line, beautifully shot, and pure fun for the older crowd. I don't believe this will work for the younger kids in your house.

Here's a sneak peak
