Good-Bye to January

Despite feeling like I got very little accomplished last month, I seem to finally be catching up on having a few piggy banks in stock and ready to go to new homes. I am slowly getting them photographed to add to my Etsy shop.

The "Bull bank" is one of my favorites.

Then again, I have a soft spot for anything glazed in shino!

I am happy to say good-bye to January and hello to February... we are getting closer to Spring every day.

Be Happy

I like to recognize Valentine's Day with simple gestures of friendship and love. Little surprises. Each year I send Danielle and Jason a small box with candy and cards. I either make the cards or I buy a of box of kids Valentines... which don't come with envelopes anymore, what's up with that?! In the past I have made peppermint bark and chocolate covered pretzels and sent them to random people who had been kind to me during the year. Giving a simple gift makes me happier than receiving a dozen roses.

But I certainly wouldn't say no to candy.

Wishing all a Valentine's Day filled with kindness, friendship, and love.
