Lakrits

One rainy Sunday afternoon I visited World Market. That Sunday afternoon I became a happy shopper! I found my favorite licorice on the shelf!! Thank you World Market for importing Halva's filled licorice! I know what I will do next time it's a rainy Sunday afternoon.

Finnish Licorice Baby!!

My favorite shelf in the store. Licorice from around the world.

Silly Bands

Oh my.. these silly bands. They are a world of great knowledge. My young man chose carefully the kind he liked with a heart on. He loves heart. But I guess they were not too popular in his school.. he proudly wears them at home and when we're out and about.. but to school he wants to wear silly bands without hearts on. So he traded some with some other kids. Silly bands come in all different shapes and colors.

The other night we went visiting some friends, and my young man lost some of his silly bands. Oh my.. now he only have 9 of his 12 silly bands.. I'm sure the story continues..

Thanksgiving Morning

Happy Thanksgiving to you! I hope you will have a day filled with lots of food, family, laughs, love, more food, a glimpse of Macy's annual Thanksgiving Parade, football, music and more food. Remember to be thankful for all the great people you have in your life and for your health. Not only today, but everyday. Cheers!

Sunny Weekend

I had a lovely weekend with sunny and warm weather (being November). Tried to spend as much time possible outdoors. After a couple of rainy days, the sunny weather was welcomed back. My weekend was filled with friends, good food, laughs, and new projects. I hope you had a great weekend too! :)

A World of Gratitude

I believe it's important to remember to be thankful. Today I came across Oprah's "A World of Gratitude" site. What a wonderful idea! Please take time to check it out. You can write your own list of what you are grateful for, or/and you can read other people's list of gratitude by clicking on the snowflakes.

Halloween Poem

The sky was black,

with a full moon out.

One cat was prowling all about!

The sky was black,

with a full moon out.

Two bats were prowling all about!

The sky was black,

with a full moon out.

Three owls were prowling all about!

The sky was black,

with a full moon out.

Four spiders were prowling all about!

The sky was black,

with a full moon out.

Five fat pumpkins shut,

LOOK OUT!
