Spring Vinyl Special

I was asked the other day if I could make another board like the one I made for Lissa and Travis. I decided that I would run a Spring special and offer everyone the chance to get a board if they wanted for the low price of $15.00. $15.00 is the price for a completed board - all put together!

I have several different colors of vinyl as well as paints. So, most likely I can do whatever your vision is.

Email me at SIOdesigns@gmail.com or call me if you have my number.


The board in the picture is aprox. 23"x6".

Check out the Spell It Out blog for more vinyl projects and specials I will be posting in the future.

Toasty Goodness

This weekend Jon and I happened to find ourselves up in Park City, and being there I requested to go to the kitchen store in the outlet mall. I started with only having the thought of getting another plastic spatula. This being because I have recently found that the one I own is almost always dirty whenever I need it.

But once in the store all havoc broke loose. Me in a kitchen store - good thing my bank account only held limited funds.

For quite some time my kitchen has been the home to lovely broken toaster. Granted it still toasts very nicely, but the lever has to be held down with one of those sweet, industrial orange and black clamps. Also, you must always be aware of whatever is in the toaster so it doesn't get burnt. Oh, how I have burnt many an english muffin.

It was just my luck, they had a double toaster on sale for the lovely price of $29.99. This is much less than was spent on the now broken toaster, and the new one does double the toasting at the same time!

While there Jon also found and pointed out to me a scone pan.
I did manage to muster up enough strength to not fall victim to the temptation of purchasing this pan. Although, if you are ever looking to buy me a gift I would love to have one of these!

Although the visit to the kitchen store started just for a new spatula, I have to be proud of myself since I didn't leave with the whole store in tow. Just a new spatula, toaster, and a pie crust ring that prevents your pie crusts from getting burnt in the oven.

Snow

Mother Nature what are you doing to me? I was enjoying the warm weather and you bring rain and snow!

Seriously, I walked out of my house this morning and it was warm. Warm enough that I didn't grab a coat. However, as I have sat at my desk at work watching the rain/sleet/snow fall I am greatly regretting I didn't grab a coat. I am glad that I chose to wear flats instead of heels though, so at least I can run to the car to try and escape the cold.

Congratulations

Early congratulations to Lissa and Travis who are getting married tomorrow! May it be a joyous and wonderful occasion!

Take me out to the ballgame!

Yes folks it's that time of the year - Baseball season. Although I don't always catch each game I try to faithfully follow the Yankees throughout the season. Tonight is their first game and it's against the Boston Red Sox. Jon and I usually have a small rivalry going on anytime the Yankees play the Red Sox. Jon is a Red Sox fan.

Every year I always say that I want to go to NY and watch a game at Yankee stadium. But life happens and time slips away and I never end up going. However, I *really* want to go this year not only because I still want to see a game, but because they are tearing down Yankee stadium to build a new one. I want to at least have the memory of having gone to the old stadium.

I guess I will have to get my butt in gear and get this trip planned.
