Happy Almost Mother's Day! I thought I'd share a feline photo of Mother/Child love -- Miss Sally Sparkles and her little girl, Rosebud. Cutie cute cute, right?? Nose kisses! I can't believe I was able to catch this with the camera. It looks like Sally has no eyes. She has eyes.
Peeps, I gots (not a typo) so much COOL STUFF today:
How the World Says Hello poster.
10 Rules for a Perfect Day. (I thought this was very retro funny. Rest before dinner!)
A Tiny Train made from teaboxes. LOVE THIS, I think I could do it.
Hello Kitty Misha Lulu clothes.
The most amazing picture frame I've ever seen.
Darling craft book that promotes storytelling! Emily's site and work is lovely.
Rhubarb Custard Pie is one of the best things I've ever eaten. My mom-in-law makes a wonderful version but I don't have her recipe written down yet. This one looks glorious.
I am WAY into this blog. She has the perfect backyard.
Cool Book of the Week: 'Peter in Blueberry Land' by Elsa Beskow. Have I talked about this one yet? I'm getting confused about which Elsa books I've discussed. I think I haven't done this one yet. I need to archive this stuff better.

So sweet about Peter looking for berries to give to his mother for her birthday. Seems appropriate given the Mom's Day holiday coming up. He can't find enough berries so the king of Blueberry Land shrinks him down to mini-size and takes him on a berry picking adventure. HOW ADORABLE IS THAT??
Have a lovely weekend! Happy Mother's Day to all of you rad mamas out there! Kisses and loveys.

ReplyDeleteThank you Sally! What a nice thing to say! I always hope to make this a happy, silly, sunshiny place to give a bit of cheer to all :)
DeleteSo much cool stuff this week! I especially love those fairytale postcards. :)
ReplyDeleteAren't those so unique Michelle? I really think they're neato mosquito.
DeleteAwww, love the kissing kitties! Also, I really want that elephant print off the fairytale card link -- and the red brid crafts site looks awesome, gonna have to spend some time there. I don't think you've shared this Elsa Beskow before, of course it looks wonderful!! Happy Friday!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday! Happy Mother's Day! xoxo
DeleteKissing Kitties!!! xoxoxox
ReplyDeletehappy weekend Melissa :)
ps I want a slice of your mom-in-laws rhubarb pie.
Happy Weekend to you! I need to cross check this recipe against hers and see if they are similar -- I think the general idea is the same. You need to have this deliciousness in your tummy!
Deletewow, lots of great stuff, I pinned a bunch of it!! And the kitties kissing. Just precious. Happy mother's day!
ReplyDeleteHappiest of Mother's Day to you Miss V - have a lovely lovey day with your sweetpeas :)
DeletePeter in Blueberry Land was the first Elsa Beskow we ever read (library). I lucked into it at a used bookstore a couple years later. Excitement!
ReplyDeleteThat train is too sweet, and I think I may need those fairytale postcards...
I found one my Elsa books at a used bookstore as well! I was so happy! Those fairytale cards....they are sooooooo great.....they speak to me...:)
