CHEESE EVERYWHERE...YUM

Gouda, pepper jack, brick, cheddar, goat cheese, cheese with bacon, and so on. My stomach ached, but my taste buds soared. 

This past weekend we had a little road trip through Wisconsin. Americas Dairy Land is right. During one of our stops we saw a local fruit farm offering strawberry picking. It was so much fun and we even got to feed the goats. I would saw we are off to a great summer:)

CAN'T GET ENOUGH

I have been told time and time again that it is apparent that Mint is my favorite color and I don't need to flaunt it in every inch of my life, but sorry to say, its not going anywhere. It's just one of those things that makes me smile inside. It's a happy color:) 

I have been saving these pics in my "like it" folder and thought it was time to share. Enjoy:) 

Oh, and if this inspires you to add a bit of mint into your life's, please let us know so I can rub it in!!!

CRACK ART?

What do you think of Juliana Santacruz Herrera's Knittted street art? 

Leveling out the streets of Paris is no longer the city's worry with this artist at work. She has made it a mission to dress up the city with her knits in the most unusual way.  I hope we are lucky enough to spot one of these curbside beauties this winter:)

HAVE YOU HEARD?

It was discussed and discussed, but finally the tickets have been purchased and we are doing official planning! Paris on News Years here we come!!!! Talcott St. will be missing 2 special ladies, but we don't care.....we will be in Paris!
