Things that add the spice or flavor to life

This blog was inspired by my children, my pets and friends. Through years of trying to entertain children I found other families, friends and community groups to collaborate with for ideas and resources. Those who know me, know how much children, pets, nature and creativity mean to me. The little the things that add some fun and flavor to your life, like art, creative cooking, nature activities, and fun facts. I was blessed with, and extremely thankful for, many of these things in my life. My mission here is to offer ideas, and inspiration among friends and put together a network of resources, including a list of organizations that do good in our community and a way to support them.

Finally Spring !

     Although spring officially began here on March 21st, it has not really felt like spring until now. The sun is actually out, and I don't feel like I need wear wool socks and dress in layers. There are still a few remands of snow piles, and hopefully they will be gone after this weekend. I don't feel like it's really spring until I hear the Spring Peepers or Chorus frogs, and I did hear them last night!

      Spring is my favorite season, seeing the first signs of new life and some green after the cold and gray starkness of winter, makes me smile. Spring is when all the ideas that have been in my head can finally come out and get a chance to become reality.

      In January I wrote about a few projects that I had plans for and I am happy to report that they are closer to reality now. Boy has it been a process! I have had my own business before and I don't remember it being this painstaking. My partners and I have done so much research and planning and writing and calling and meeting and testing and asking and waiting and we have learned so much, it will eventually come together. We are hoping the actual store front will be up and running in a couple of months and if that doesn't happen, the online store will until we are able to move in to our location of choice.

      I know I've peaked your interest. I know I'm being somewhat evasive. I know you want to know more. You will just have to be patient, as I have had to be, for a few more weeks.
