did you know?

it must be the teacher in me...but I had to share:

Ever wondered why Easter’s date wanders around? Because it’s determined by the lunar calendar. Easter is celebrated at the first Sunday after the first full Moon, after the Spring Equinox. It can therefore arrive anywhere between March 21st and April 25th.

there you go.

would you? could you?




These backdrops from Castle Gibson seen on Beefy's blog would be SO AMAZING for a photo shoot...but could you actually live with the bohemian chic, torn and tattered look? I'd like to say I could...but I'd most likely have my paint swatches out after a week or two.

envious



okay,okay...stick a big,fat "L" on my forehead for watching DWTS (and now I'm an uber-loser because I abbreviated Dancing With The Stars like we're close and personal friends) BUT--
check out the PONYTAIL on Nicole Scherzinger (of PussyCat Dolls fame)...I die. And would I push people to the floor, run over them with high heels if she were giving away that body of hers...yes I would.

sing out


I teach a third grade small reading group which just happens to be five boys. At first I thought they would be a handful, but I'm actually enjoying our time together. There's no snarkiness like among the third grade girls and they all get along quite well. The SWEETEST thing is when we are grading papers and they sing their answers . They LOVE to do it and my heart smiles when they do--SO sweet.

get cara cara-ed away


My daughter told me about the uber sweetness and joy a CaraCara orange will bring to your tastebuds and she was right! What's the big diff you may ask...well, I've done the research for you:
Cara Cara Oranges are very low in acid, with a naturally sweet flavor. Some people feel that they are superior to other navel orange varieties in flavor, and they are often in high demand in produce markets when they are in season.
Go. Eat. Enjoy
