Wicked Fun

So I was working on my photos from my trip to NYC. The best part of the whole trip was our night on Broadway. We went to see the musical Wicked and it was completely worth every stinking penny! What an incredible treat! We all said that we would totally pay to see it again. It was fun putting it together in a LO to show off the night of Wickedness! Can't wait to do it again!

So there is a super fun blog called Twisted Sketches which I have silently stalked for some time but have finally participated in one of their challenges! It was totally the sketch that I needed for this page!

Here's my take and thanks for an awesome challenge!!

Winter's beauty

Posted in on Sunday, November 8, 2009 8:07 PM by StaZ

So I know that it is pretty risky to say that Winter has any sort of beauty at all especially here in the great white north, but I will openly admit that winter is definitely my favorite season! I love skiing, skating, tobogganing, snowballs fights, etc. I have always found winter to be romantic and I love nothing more than a walk in the snow on a winter evening. I was going through some winter pictures tonight on my computer and came across these that I had taken in January 2007 when we were in Saskatchewan. These pictures remind me why I love winter so much. Pictures like this make the snow shoveling and car scrapping moments all worth it!!

Yummy new candy

So I love Jr. Mints and they have a new candy flavor. Junior Mints Peppermint Crunch. YUM!!!! Just picked up a box today. I feel some inspiration coming on as an ode to this incredible candy and their maker!

So as I sit here on a Friday feel tired and yearning for bed I had a fantastic moment with my cup of peppermint tea and my box of Peppermint Crunch Junior Mints. YUM!! What could be better? NOW GO CHECK THEM OUT!!!!
