Spring... sigh...

"Spring" is the theme for the UWIB blog hop this month, but I'm having a tough time coming up with something to blog about.

It's hard to think about Spring when the morning shows frost on the grass and temps in the 30's... but the birdies are still singing up a storm, and the sun rises bright in a blue, blue sky. I know it's getting here... just in tiny steps.

These are NOT the birds who sing, but they're all over the place around here. ;)



Yes, it snowed the other day... snow does not obey the stop sign!


This is actually a hard time of the year for me... I'm prone to depression in the spring. I feel tired all the time, and I'm cold, and definitely lazy, so even though I have plenty of things I should be doing, or making, I'm eating and sleeping too much... is that what spring fever is?

I know it's not much, but I DID at least change my blog background to look more "springy". ;)

So, I know this is kind of rambling/blathering, but my fellow UWIB gals are a great bunch, and I'm gonna go and visit their blogs and see what they've come up with. :)

Have a look, they're all listed right here.

Local Cape Cod Handmade Talent!

"Cape Cod Here I Come!" is the apt title of this gorgeous treasury...


This beautiful treasury was put together by Judith S. from Market 1


It's made up of members of the Team Cape Cod (tcape) on Etsy. We are a new team of Etsy sellers who call Cape Cod home, whether full time residents, visitors or one time residents.

Can't you just smell the ocean and feel those cool ocean breezes?

Take a moment to click to the treasury and leave some comments, and maybe purchase some local handmade goodies from these talented Cape Cod artisans. :)
