make YOUR weekend fun

I THINK one of my favorite things about the warm weather...and Spring is Smoothies!
I absolutely love smoothies.
.
.
I think I'm going to go make one right now.
.
I saw this Tee-Pee on Black Eiffel's new post, I had to immediately add it to my favorite Tee-Pee photos that I posted a while back!

A shop I recently visited was Joo Joo's on etsy. I was delighted.
.Jewelry, magnets, paper goods...all your spring needs! :-)
.
The snails are my favorite.

B. really wants to travel to India. I would like to, but I have to admit there are a lot more places ahead on my list I want to take care of before I go to India. One thing that fascinates me, especially this time around the year is THEIR fascination of color. Its aspires me.

Holi, also called the Festival of Colours, is a popular Hindu spring festival held in India, Nepal and countries with large Hindu such as Guyana, South Africa, Trinidad, the UK, and Fiji.

I recently just discovered this place. Terraces on the Samthar walk in India. It looks so inviting.

I especially could love Citroens because of this guy....
In Tokyo, there is a neighborhood named Nakameguro and its supposed to be one of the HIPPEST neighborhoods around to date. Popular for its bars and restaraunts, cafes, real laid-back vibe in Nakameguro.
I mean just look at this picture...
The dude is selling coffee and lattes out of his old cream-colored vintage Citroen.
"It's this kind of resourcefulness that gives the neighborhood its creative, youthful energy."

Nakameguro has what I love.
"A neighborhood that is a harmonious melding of old and new, urban and rustic."

Mmmm....
Chocolate.
HERSHEY's chocolate.

This new museum (a $23.5 million museum!) settles in of course, Chocolate Avenue in Hershey, Pa. Located down the street where Milton S. Hershey built his factory in 1903. It recently just opened in January. It has interactive interactive photos, and maps....you can even roll your own truffle in sprinkles!.

Talking about all the gardening with Spring starting up today....
The Obama's are planning to make a vegetable garden as well! One lucky elementary school got chosen in the area to help.
It'll be called, The White House Vegetable Garden. And these kids along with many other helpers including the White House staff and the Obama's themselves will be contributing. This will be the first time The White House will have ever had a garden since Eleanor Roosevelt's, "Victory Garden" which was built during World War II. That did lead a lot of other's to build their own victory garden's....hopefully this vegetable garden will do the same!

Oh, Willy Wonka!

Today, before I left to work I was listening to NPR's last 'Day to Day' talk show. Thats right, another sad time for one in closing its run time. Day to Day, hosted by Madeleine Brand, offered world and national news in regards to politics, culture, and technology. Madeleine brought in Willy Wonka's Screenwriter, David Seltzer to give Day to Day a bit of an inside on how to make a happy ending to a show that was important not only to the host herself, but to all of us, listeners. As how he made a happy ending with Willy Wonka, he gave it to us, "They all just lived happily ever after, you, your crew, everyone who does all this good work, lives happily ever after".

As for all of us!

Won't we live happily ever after...its the best ending any can have.

merry weekend.

xo.
