Tot Town bib and Blankie Set

A Special Set that ANY Little Boy would be proud of...








To Complete the Theme, Noah and I decided to make "Construction" snacks...
Here are just a few ideas you can do....Put that bib to good use

Graham Wafer Houses Using graham wafers, icing and assorted candies, create graham wafer houses and other buildings.

Marshmallow Creations Using pretzel sticks; mini and/or regular size marshmallows, let the kids get creative and see what they can create!

Cheese Hammers Cut small blocks of hard cheese; press onto a pretzel.

House-Wiches Cut the top of a slice of bread in a triangle shape to resemble a roof shape. Spread cream cheese or peanut butter over the bread shape. Add a cheese slice, cut on the diagonal (triangle), to the roof area of the bread house. Using more cheese pieces, cucumber slices, thin carrot slices or whatever food item you can think of, add windows, and doors to the house.

Colorful Inspiration

The Amazing, Vibrant Colors of Mexico...
That Inspired My June Collection



Baja Baby





















I walk down a meandering road
surrounded by white stucco homes
red and purple bougainvillea drip
from balconies like cherry syrup
spilt on scones.
The colors run downhill
coating the terra cotta town
with the aroma of Mexico.

I look at my feet on the buttered bubbles
of cobblestones.
I feel the burn of heat from the oven sun.
Women sweep the street and children run.
Dogs lie in the shade watching me
as I hum a song of Mexico.

Ferns, jungle green
spread their fingers and wave to me.
Palm leaves dance rhythmically
in the arms of an ocean breeze
and music sets the beat
of what I feel inside ~
vibrantly alive
on a morning walk into the soul
of my enchanting Mexico.

Can you Speak a little French?

Dodo dinette


Dodo, dinette

Dodo, dino
Ma petite poulette

Va faire dodo

Dans les bras de sa maman

Qui la berce doucement

Sleep, sleepy,

Sleep, sleep,

My little poppet

Is going to sleep

In the arms of her mommy

Who lulls her tenderly

Sleep, sleepy,Sleep, sleep.
