Belated wish

Well, I was a day late baking sweets for a special someone's birthday, but I had a good reason--making sure we got to the theater early enough to get good seats to see Harry Potter on opening day.


Movie was fun. Cupcakes are delish. Unfortunately, today I ate three and also skipped the usual Saturday morning workout.

Meet Ink

This sweet little guy is made of Bernat Softee Chunky in Carnival, and comes from OldBagLady's Baby Snow Dragon pattern on Crochetville. His ears are floppy and his eyes are a bit crooked, but this is how he wanted to be!


The wings and picot stitch spine came from aeronberry on Craftster.



He'll be going to live with a friend who recently mentioned she'd like to have a small dragon tattoo, hence the name Ink. He's such a cutie and will be missed!

Sarasota and her islands

From what I was able to see, Sarasota is gorgeous! Beaches, art, theatre, fine dining, and, of course, a miniature circus!

We stayed at Hotel Indigo.


The conference was at the Hyatt, so each day we had to cross Tamiami Trail and scream, "What IS the speed limit on this road?!"

The first day we went on a tour of historic mansions; most memorable was Ca d'Zan, the John and Mable Ringling mansion. I had to keep reminding myself this was their winter home!
