The Friday 5

This week I was back in the swing of things with full force and promised myself to get The Friday 5 published in a timely manner.  It has been a rewarding week, and I so enjoy doing these posts because they help document the details I might otherwise forget as the week's (struggles and successes) roll on.

I fell in love with this handsome garden guard I met during an event walk through this week at 

Cylburn Arboretum in Baltimore.  Believe it or not, the daffodils were already peeking 

through the grass and I can't wait to return in spring.

While I am not usually one for sweets, I believe this is indeed evidence that eating a few malted milk balls aids in late night blog productivity.

Perhaps the most exciting item on my list...my pretty new LOGO and business cards at press check. They were overnighted to the edger on Thursday and I pick them up on Sunday in LA.

A few packed essentials for California adventure.

* New Rule:  Invite friends over mid-week for a glass of wine or two, some good laughs, and
decorate the bottles.  Save the bottles through the winter and use them as candleholders
(or vases) for outdoor soirees in spring.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the warmer weather.  Next week's Friday 5 is sure to be California inspired...
