Hmm, Tuesday. It really feels like Monday to me. After taking a nice, needed long weekend, it is really hard to get back in the swing of things. My mind seems slow and my body is a bit achy. But, all in all, worth it. I really got a lot of things done around the house this weekend - even if the weather was more Winter than Spring-like. I cleaned and repaired my gutters, trimmed bushes, dug out old ornamental grasses (I will never plant ornamental grasses again, they grow like crazy and are truly hard to get rid off. I honestly thought I was going to lose control while trying to dig them out), cleaned house, did laundry, baked. The list goes on. And sadly, there is still more to do.
In addition to all the house stuff, I did get a little shopping in. Some fun Amy patterns and fabric for the projects were my biggest score. Plus some really comfy and pretty running shoes. I think I may be more excited about my new shoes than the fabric. So strange!
Plus, I got a couple fun presents from the Easter Bunny, aka Mom. A replenishment of my favorite make-up, Bare Escentuals. I love this stuff. Great for sensitive skin. And it lasts for ages. Plus the brushes are really soft and fun to use. It really is quicker and easier to use than many people think. I'm not sure I could ever go back to liquid foundation.
Hope everyone's holiday was great!! Now I have to get back to work and get crafting. I have some Hacky Sacks to make and some Amy patterns to sew.
Best Easter basket ever - hands down!

What a fun blog! Where do you pick up your Amy patterns, that's one that I have not seen before. I'm a newish sewer and love these patterns!

Hello my name is Kathleen, I just wanted to post about Bare Minerals, I've been using that for two years now and its great, I have sensitive skin also. I just purchased the Peacock collection! I haven't bought the new Amy patterns yet, I'm still working on some of the old ones.

Okay -- a girlfriend gave me that set for my birthday in October and I've yet to use it. It all seems so complicated! Does it take you a long time to put on?
And I bought that same pink giraffe print fabric. Isn't it pretty? Love it!
Glad to hear you were spoiled by the Easter bunny, aka Mom.
