Sew pretty!

I would post the picture right here,
but Hobby Lobby won't let me take it.....=(
These buttons are sooo cute(!!!), and what a lot of happiness-
(5 buttons) for less than a dollar! =)

Oh, well.... You will just have to click here to see them for your self!!

I don't even know what I would use them for...
I wonder if they are available in the store?....
.....and I wonder what country they came from.....hmmm.

A Little Girl's Tea Party! 6 little girls, 1 middle girl, 3 big girls, and 2 old(er) girls- 12 in all. =)

A new Fire King pitcher should NOT break when you are making tea for a party,
and dump peppermint tea all over the counter and floor! =(
My poor pitcher!...it's so sad....I was almost ill.... =(

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First we colored pictures of a puppy (found here), then a round of "Memory".

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We 3 big girls got the food all out while my Mom read "But No Elephants!" to the other girls,
and then they played a round of "Jr. Charades".


I made the Jell-O on Saturday while listening to "doo-wop" wearing my new red retro apron, using Grandma's
old measuring cup, making jell-o in my late Grandmama's OLD fashioned
"Jello" molds! (they have the word "JELL-O" stamped across the tops) It made me feel so-- nice, old fashioned, and productive! (smile)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now we eat! (what we all came here for right?)






We had a lovely time!
Charlie and Me!
(And no, he's not mine!)

The Little Prince

By Antoine de Saint-Exupery

If you will not take the time to read the whole book, just read chapter 21 on page 64.
It is about Friends and Relationships. You can get this book in the children's part of the library, and don't worry if you do not have a card- this chapter is not to long and could be read right there.

If you just want to read the study of grown-ups then read chapters 1 & 7-23..... =)
Click here to buy it.
