as cozy as spring

Name that Memory

Y'all, I need some help.  I had this vague memory this morning of bicycle license plates connected with the taste of a sweet cereal.  I can't quite put my finger on what it is I am remembering.  Some sort of marketing campaign from the 80s?  Anyone?  Honey Comb, maybe?

Camp Snoopy

Do y'all remember these?  Circa 1983?  I loved these as a child and this ended up being my very first ebay purchase several years ago.  I managed to find the whole set, unused for a steal (ahem, $9.00 total!).  There are plenty more available, if you are Peanutty like us.

And maybe these aren't fine china or anything, but they are right up there in my china cabinet with my wedding place setting and transferware.  They make me smile.  I'm not sure if this is anything post worthy, but I thought they might make someone else smile as well.

There's plenty of time to get your submissions in for the Loveliness of Gardens fair on Monday.  I'll put a time of about 6:00 tomorrow night, in pencil.  It doesn't have to be brand new - I remember someone's gorgeous azalea photos from last year that might have to be included regardless.

Welcome back Spring

Won't you stay awhile?

I am really bad about making plans for a particular day and then forgetting the day entirely (see every single feast day).  Every year we plan parties to celebrate the change of seasons.  I have rarely actually done it.   Kim's post started me thinking that maybe I try to hard to have everything neatly coordinated and perfectly themed.  So it's still early spring but we made Popsicles and beaded ladybug bracelets anyway.  I don't think Lucy will remember when we did it but that we did do it.
