Spring Bouquet

I love this spring bouquet. (Found via The Bride's Cafe.)


Knitting

I used to scoff at knitting.
Now I'm not so sure...


The thing that's getting me is this - if you can knit, you can have whatever you want as long as you have the yarn and the patience (cute things that you can't buy, scarves in any color)..

And so, I might make it a goal this year to (re-)learn to knit.

Cookie Stamps from Williams-Sonoma

While looking online at different cookie cutters, I stumbled upon these fun cookie cutters from William-Sonoma. They can be customized to say different messages (they come with pre-made words as well as single letters), and there are a couple of shapes to choose from. So far they seem to have received good customer ratings.

They would be great for the typical events - wedding cookies, graduation cookies, etc. The uses are endless though - happy birthday cookies, stamps that tell the flavor for large amounts of cookies at catered events, etc. Hmn...I might just shell out the $20 and give them a whirl.
