Spring Break in full swing...

I wish we could sail away
but I'm thankful no ones sick
as it seems everyone has been
with this cold and flu going around!


we have been busy working around the house


I think the kids are planning
a party with their friends
ice fishing.

Mimi said no blogging please
well I'll try

We got off to a great start with a little
visit from Christine over at
squirrelhaus on Saturday.
I did put this bright idea into motion
I have had these two things out in the store for
a while and this cute laundry bag fit perfectly
into this cart and voila
I think it make dirty laundry a little sweeter.
well at least my whites whiter....
what have you been up to this week...
I am off to try a new tool I picked up for
cleaning toilets a pumice stick....
fun fun fun and more fun!
UPDATE
i just finished cleaning the toilets
and those hard water streaks are gone
I'm the happiest of campers.

  1. Cleaning toilets! The glam!

    I really like your dirty laundry trolley ... it's a bit sad that our lives have gotten so mundane.

    No blogging now, mother.

  2. Love the Richard Scarry pictures! I adored pouring over his books for all the details when I was little. Thanks for your comment. Which film do you mean - the Mel Gibosn one?

  5. I'm beginning to worry about you and Bean. You with your pumice stick and her with her vacuum. Maybe the winter is getting just a little too long there.

    The little book illustrations are darling, I love little mice. Blessings, Diane

  6. The little animal book characters are so cute. They all look so happy, makes you want to jump into the book and join them!!
    I've never heard about the pumice stick. Might have to look into that. I hate hard water stains!
    Looks like your having a great spring break so far, I'm glad I could share a little bit of it with you!!! Really looking forward to this summer!!!

  7. Really cute pictures! I love the laundry basket/shopping cart! I need a cloth laundry bag to put in a holder (made of plastic pipe). I think my son used the bag that goes with it when he went camping (and of course, it disappeared!). Did you make your laundry bag?

  16. Dear Heidi,

    the easter bunny pictures from the book are so sweet and I love your wonderful enamelware. I love roses on enamelware and blue enamelware so much.
    Yesterday my parents-in-law brought me a sweet white easter bunny with glitter - they bring me always little treasures from their shopping trips - so kindly.
    Have a nice time my dear,

    Tanja
