Spring Giveaway!

The sun embraces the earth and awakens life once more. The geese have returned, fragrant flowers are beginning to bloom, and creatures big & small are emerging from their winter hideaways. Life is busy all around and to celebrate I am giving away this awesome ceramic necklace from Surly-ramics!

Amy Davis Roth donated this beautiful piece for me to offer. She and her husband handcraft and hand paint each and every piece of their ceramic jewelry and I am proud to say I own one myself! You can see/purchase some of their fantastic work and learn more about the artist HERE.

For your chance to win this beautiful necklace, just FOLLOW my blog by clicking on the link to the left. If you already follow my blog, you don't need to do anything, as your name is automatically entered! I will pick and post the winner next Friday, March 27th! Good luck everyone and Happy Spring!

Happy St. Patrick's Day


May you have warm words on a cold eve


A full moon on a dark night


And the road downhill


All the way to your door.


~Irish Blessing


Some fun St. Patty's Day tidbits:

March 17 is widely accepted as the date of St. Patrick's death in A.D. 461. The first St. Patrick's Day parade in the United States was held in New York City on this day in 1762.

Cabbage seeds are often planted today, and old-time farmers believed that to make them grow well, you needed to plant them while wearing your nightclothes.

What does Erin go Bragh mean? The popular phrases "Erin go Bragh" or "Erin go Braugh" mean Ireland forever.
