happy monday!

It's cold here. Last week when I left for work the car thermometer said 5 degrees. Bitter cold. I will be cold until March. This is what I usually wear on my feet in the winter. As soon as I wake in the morning til I go to bed at night.


And I drink tea. Lots of tea. Throughout the day and into the evening. I have found a tea that I love and they now make it in decaf. So I won't be up at 2 a.m. thinking about how cold my feet are (and that I have to pee because I drank all that tea) :)

Hot Cinnamon Spice, it has a bold spicy flavor with hints of orange. When other teas just tease you about orange zest this one delivers.

What is you favorite tea?

We visited my Grandma over the holidays. It had been too long since I have seen her last. Life gets so busy it's hard to make time for the important things. She showed us pictures of all the grand babies, and letters from family and friends. She doesn't drive much anymore, doesn't go out since Grandpa passed away.

She has made it her business to know what is going on in her family through letters, phone calls, pictures.

I bought these note cards from blackberrygraphics.etsy.com aren't they pretty? I hope she thinks so too.

I am linking up with Miscellany Monday today. I hope everyone has a good week!

snow day monday

1. I love snow days. I love watching the fat flakes float down and cover everything in white. I love watching the boys excitement as they play in the snow and have a whole day off from school. Hooray!!

2. My sweet nephew with the white/blond hair and big blue eyes learned how to crawl this week. A cute video captured the moment and proud parents shared it with us!

3. I started a new blog today. It's a blog about our adventures in food. I'm really excited about it and hope it will be a creative outlet for me. I have only written one post, but you can read it here.

I'm joining in on the miscellany Monday fun at lowercase letters.

I hope everyone has a great week!
