Valentine's Day

I am not really a Valentine's Day person. I suppose it has something to do my cynicism and the "overpriced" world we live in; the authenticity of such a holiday.

And yet, something in my post-modern soul tugs at my heartstrings, urges me to buy expensive gifts, spend oodles of money and write cards (which will just be thrown out) to those I love.

So this is me proclaiming that tomorrow? Tomorrow will be a beautiful, good day. It will be me letting the Boy sleep in, making him pancakes (his favourite breakfast item) and not pressuring too much to clean up the house. Because in the end, how clean your house is isn't what you'll remember. I may even clean it all today, even the jobs I hate, as a pre-emptive strike at V-day.

How about you? What is on your agenda on Valentine's day? Clue me in.

Handmade holidays.

I am so excited that Handmade Holidays III is starting today/tomorrow at Sew, Mama, Sew!

I am so excited for all the projects I will (obviously) be doing in my holidays. Although my UFO list is huge. Gosh, I fail at life.


Maybe I'll get the boy on 2 1/2" squares today. Or working on my AMG block. It's so hard being me!



I'm working on the first block in the LH corner right now, but I should have finished at least six of them! Will keep you updated.
