Howdy!
Every year, Mom and I would manage to eat unknown quantities of Robins Eggs candy. We already loved Whoppers but that candy coating and seasonal availability made them soooo hard to resist.
It was not unusual to have "secret" stashes of Robin Eggs around the house. It was our fun every Spring.
This year, I had to get my fix. I just chose to do it in a manageable size. Since I've lost some weight and I didn't want a complete sugar high, I paced myself to make this cute little package of Robin Eggs last two days. Yes, for some of you that know me, this is a miracle. If I would have bought the bag, I would have eaten the whole thing in those two days, but thank goodness for will power!
Such a simple but good candy. Such great memories.
I love you Mom. I ate the whole carton, thinking of you.
Sharing the stories as I prepare to move from Oregon and make Colorado home. Decorating wins & fails and studio creations will be shared too!

Glitter on the Flowers
Howdy!
I will give the Colorado weather forecasters credit. They do a good job of predicting the weather. They say it's gonna snow, it will. I just wish it wasn't this late in the spring when flowers are blooming!
There are actually a few purple flowers in our yard that were savoring the sun, especially on Saturday when it was 70° and sunny.
Sunday night it started, just like they said.
Monday morning the precious few purple flowers that were in our yard were covered in snow. Sigh. The snow melted away by the afternoon tho! I'll have to check in on the flowers and hope they're hardy.
Today: sunny and a high of 64°. Amazing weather here!
