i own one :-) but i got it at the mall with a demo. but if that same guy in the ad was selling it to me at the mall, i wouldn't have parted with my $19.99 + tax. that guy in the as is a bit strange!!

making lemonade outta lemons







WHY such the sour face you ask? me & bryan drop off brandon at school on tuesdays & wednesdays and every time we leave, bryan cried his eyes out. he wants to stay and play. he'll cry the entire trip home asking for his brother and calling out his name. he'll even go as far as getting his arms out of his car seat straps to turn his body around to look behind him to point to his brother's school.
i had a couple of errands to do.......1st stop, post office to mail out some packages. he was still crying when we went inside. a nice woman held the door open for us and let us go before her. the mail lady at the counter was very nice.... bryan stopped crying (thank god!). the other counter lady said that bryan was so cute with his watery red eyes & pout (not so much to me). i guess they felt for me.
next stop was michael's to pick up some stuff (don't tell hubby i went). he totally was okay now. he helped carry the hand basket & showed me this & that. at the register, he handed each item to the cashier and then ran to behind her counter & wanted to help.
next stop, HOME! but i did see the beautiful mountains covered with snow after 3 days of rain. ok, it may not seem beautiful to some of you where it snows a lot during the winter but to me, i think it's pretty (from afar!).



i decided to go to the farmers market they have by our house every tuesday before heading home. got zucchini, and a yummy smelling pomelo. we also stopped by the nearby library gounds where they have lemon trees. bryan picked up 1 or 2 off the floor. we took them home---is that stealing??? they already fell off the tree.



caught red-handed!!
so we made lemonade outta a lemon kinda day. oh, stop by here & check out this site. cool stuff! and my card is posted. it's my 1st digi image. http://twoscoopsricedesigns.blogspot.com/
