I'm covered in thread, cutting out new goodies for the Spring Fling! 

tulsa time...

The camera cable has been located!!!

We had a great time in Tulsa – we stayed downtown, and were able to walk around the Brady Arts District before the show. We had a drink at Caz's Pub (with delicious fried pickles), and also checked out the legendary Cain's Ballroom before heading to the show. And Bruce played our favorite song and made all the travel worthwhile.

After the Easter Bunny comes tomorrow, I'm locking myself in my studio to get ready for Funky Finds Spring Fling!

Hoppy Easter!

why i'm not giving you a tulsa update...

See here.

cupcakes, pizza and rock n' roll...

I've talked before about some of our culinary favorites in Austin, (the city we should live in but don't) that's right down the road from us (well, maybe a little more than right down the road, but I'm usually asleep while he drives, so the journey doesn't seem too long!). 

We made that short drive this weekend for a little rockandroll show, and went down a bit early so we would have time to do some window shopping and grab a bite to eat. We ended up doing one of the healthier things you can do – eat dessert before dinner – at Hey Cupcake! It's set up in an Airstream trailer parked along South Congress, and combines two of my favorite things: (a) sweets and (b) foods purchased from a trailer. We then proceeded to purchase our dinner from another window, with two slices from Home Slice. After stuffing our faces, we went down to the show where the E Street Band knocked our socks off!

Cupcakes, then pizza, then the Boss. Could a day be more perfect?

UPDATE: I almost forgot to mention - we're headed to Tulsa tomorrow for another show with Bruce. Road updates forthcoming....

party time...

I love this printable pdf party invite, available here, and designed by Egg Press. 

birds of a feather...

All the pretty birds, lined up in a row! I'm busy here at the studio, cutting out the little parts and pieces for a few more Little Birdie Mobiles for the Funky Finds Spring Fling. If you are in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, mark your calendars for Saturday, April 25th. The event will be held at the Will Rogers Coliseum in Fort Worth, and the admission is FREE!

spring has sprung!

Happy Vernal Equinox!
