Decorating for spring......

New bead sets in my Etsy shop.

It's March already. Time for some spring decorating. Just bought the above print from art.com.  It's by John Douglas and I love the colors! It will be mounted on a wood panel and on display at the bar, along with some other spring decorations, for a bit before it comes home to my house. I have a couple large shelves above the backbar at Norm's that I decorate for the seasons. It's fun and gives people something to look at. So that's what I'll be doing today. Gotta get some shamrocks in there for St. Paddy's Day too.

Small bead sets....

Small bead sets just added to my Etsy shop!



Happy Valentine's Day!

Small bead set available in my Etsy shop.

I have never cooked lobster before.

My husband suggested that maybe we deserve a special treat for Valentine's Day, so he proceeded to order a couple of lobsters for us from our local supermarket and asked me to pick them up today. 

 I said "no problem".

 After making my way to the supermarket meat department, I motioned to the butcher on duty to tell him I was there to pick up my husbands order. He disappeared through the double revolving doors into the cooler and returned seconds later with a large clear plastic bag containing two "whole" lobsters. Hmmm.....not what I was expecting... 

Now just a few moments ago when I got home from the grocery store my husband, standing at the door when I started unloading the groceries, asked me if I had remembered the lobsters and so I held up the bag to show him.  Then asked me if they were alive. I looked down at the bag I was holding and realized they WERE ALIVE!!!! I shrieked and nearly dropped the bag. I don't know what I was thinking.

I will just have to resume my lobster cooking research on youtube.....

.....and the lobsters will have to sleep out in the shed tonight because I can't bear to look at them in the fridge.
