Hat-Tip Hick-Nod

In Alabama one will be walking along in the neighborhood and a car truck might approach.  As it gets closer, one might realize they know the driver – although it doesn’t really matter – and wave hello.  The man driving the truck will not wave back but will nod a hello – just a slight lowering of the head – a hick-nod.  Don’t be shocked or offended that I wrote that.  I KNOW because I am from there.  I have given and received many a hick-nod.

Moving on. . .
I really like The Land of Nod. (the children’s branch of Crate and Barrel).  Looking through their catalog is like looking through Pottery Barn Kids – sorta.  Thing is – I love it.

This month I was looking through the pages and saw this:

Anything jump off the page at you? Obviously I only scanned the part I wanted to keep – – the prints on the wall.  I think they are adorable.  LON is selling them for $89.00.  Each.
I’ve been at work and here is what I have come up with:
and
When all is said and done, I’ll have my wall art for 1/8 the price and it will match my bathroom perfectly!! I am so excited.  
So, hat-tip/hick-nod to Land of Nod (Ha! No pun intended) and I’ll show you the results when I have them. . . some day soon .

Presidents’ Day

There is no school on Monday. 
A friend of mine mentioned that we go to the Magic House but EVERY family in town is going to do that! So, I don’t know.
It is supposed to rain. 
No matter what else we do, I think we might do a little of THIS.

Mooey Meal

Our friends have told us about  a family member (called Mooey) who bakes meals that are all one color.  Like this one I made this week.  How UNappetizing is that? It was yummy once one got past the appearance of evil.
