I wish I had heard earlier & could have told more people......
I think it's pretty cool.

PEACE.......

Happy Easter

What is a nice sign of spring??????? A crocus.



Unfortunately this is the only crocus that came up this year. I really need to buy more.

And speaking of flowers - The Macy's Flower Show is going on right now in N.Y.C.

One problem - THEY DIDN'T TELL ME THEY WERE CLOSING FOR EASTER!!! So all we got to see was the displays in the windows.
Okay - They were absolutely gorgeous but I was NOT a happy camper to find the doors closed.......... UGH!!!

All is not lost - Madame Tussauds was open so even though Bobby was not thrilled (cause he's already seen it ) and Bob thought it was expensive, but finally I got to see the Madame Tussauds Wax Museum.

I thought it was pretty cool.





Some of the figures were great - Some were not so good.
At least I can check it off my list of "Things I wanna see & do"

























After that, it was back home to a nice ham dinner.

All in all, it was a very nice Easter.

Just a little "Coffee Love"

Guitar Hero

Bobby went over Jordan's for a little bit this afternoon.

He looked like he was packing for two weeks but ofcourse all that he had was his X-Box 360 and his Guitar Hero games & two guitars.

Me - I got to go to the grocery store - Oh lucky me......

As I was leaving I ran back and handed them my camera - "I want Guitar Hero pictures!!!" I said and off I went.......

Came back to pick up Bobby. Asked to see the pictures assuming I would have some really great action shots of the two of them..............

What do I get?????????????????
A picture of the box.........

Gee - Thanks guys!!!!

My New Auction WebStore

Yesterday I started an Etsy account and today I started an account with AuctionsWebstore.
If you want to see MY STORE - CLICK HERE: http://auctions.webstore.com/Roses-In-The-Attic,name,RosesInTheAttic,username,1664,user_id,shop


I am so excited. I've wanted to sell stuff for ages and I am finally going to try to do it.
I miss going to Craft Shows with my Mom so much. We had so much fun.
Still want to do that again but this seems a lot easier cause you dont have to back boxes and boxes of stuff and haul them in and out of the car and to the shows and then PRAY that you actually sell something.

Well, WISH ME LUCK!!!!
I'm doing a happy dance hoping that this works........

YAY...........

ETSY

Well, I did it.
I started an Etsy shop.
Okay - Only put one thing on there but it's a start.
Also started a PayPal account just in case the millions of dollars start rolling in.............

Yeah..........
Right................

LOL

Date Nite

Bob and I went to Anthony's with Laura & her husband Bob.
Had a great time talking and joking around and the guys even played a few games of pool.
Too bad they didn't have Laura's Fried Cheesecake.
Too bad the waiter didn't let Laura order her Nacho Platter.
Too bad I almost choked seeing a picture of a HUGE QUID....
We definitely need to do this again.
(But without the squid..........)









YUM....
YUM.......
YUM................

Is it just me????????

Is it just me????
Am I the only one crazy enough to think that this is a total waste of pretty paper???
Look at the colors, loot at the lettering, look at the texture of the paper.
I even did some extra distressing - In other words I unwrapped the HUGE burrito that was in this fine piece of paper, crinkled the paper then un crinkled it. I even thought of inking the edges and adhering to a piece of cardstock and doing a layout about my day...
Then I realize - YOU ARE SERIOUSLY GETTING A LITTLE CRAZY....... Taco Bell never claimed to have archival safe paper.

Okay - Fine - Maybe I won't use the actual greasy re-fried bean stained burrito wrapper but I definitely think that someone needs to come up with a pretty paper like this so I can scrap about the reasons I don't want to see a burrito again for quite a while...........

Breakfast - McDonalds large coffee & Saurage Breakfast Burrito. (This in itself has over 300 calories, a ton of carbs and is completely horrible for my waistline.......
Lunch with Laura at Taco Bell. Ordered the "Fiesta Meal".
Ate the tortilla chips & salsa, ate the rice, ate the re-fried beans.........
Looked at the HUGE burrito and said - "NO WAY"..........
Saved said Burrito for dinner where I finished every single bite while the dog looked at me licking her lips........

UGH............... I am sooooooo full.

But come on......... Tell me you dont think this paper is pretty......
Is it just me???????????
And tell me you dont miss that cute chihuahua that used to be in the commercials????
Wouldn't this paper be cute on a layout with a picture of that dog????

Okay - I admit it.
Perhaps I am going a little loco after all....

Adios...
Buenos Noches....







...

SPRING......

What a gorgeous day today was.
Okay, maybe a little windy but I was in a good mood today so I felt really excited about the thought of WARM WEATHER.......
Drove around a little lunch time - Watched people out and about.
Came home and realized - Hey - Let's see if there are any plants growing yet...
YUP....
Here they are - FLOWERS
Woooo Hooooo.....

Here is Miss Muffin in her new Denim outfit.
