Happy Easter - Tag Swap


Happy Easter and Happy Pink Saturday. I have not been around bloggland since Valentine's Day but promise to be better and show you more of NYC. Some Video's also. My beautiful Circle Journal friends did another swap, this time Easter tags. Some also decorated the back just as gorgeous as the front. I did not I just did the front. I guess all these years of swapping tags I never saw anyone do the other side so I did not but I tell you I will never "not" do the back agaain. I can not begin to explain all the life trials my family and I have been through and this group without knowing have helped me keep the Faith!  I think finishing the back of a tag even with a few little things makes it interesting and you get extra tags. I hope you and your family and friends have a beautiful Easter! xoox

Royce - Chocolate Madison Avenue

Royce....like Rolls Royce of Chocolate opened at 509 Madison Avenue near 53rd Street, opened before Christmas but I did not get to go in until last week. Royce is from Japan and joined the Madison Avenue Chocolatiers in 2012 the first store in the USA. Royce is a very small hall shaped "boutique" that sells only half of the different varieties that it makes. My very favorite is potato chips in fromage blanc (white chocolate). A little pricey at $17. but very worth a treat. Valentine's day is approaching would be wonderful to give an extra sweet item with that piece of jewelery for her or for him, would be divine to give yourself with a sweet!

Pink Saturday - Friendship Heart Swap

Happy Pink Saturday Valentine Fun Day!! My friend Tammy hosted a wonderful Friendship Heart Ornament  Swap. There were 9 of us and we each had to make a heart ornament with a friendship quote. I am so surprised there was not the same quote used and such different adorable ornaments made. I love them all! Please visit our Pink Saturday Hostess Beverly from How Sweet the Sound for some Pink Saturday Valentine fun. Grace xoox

My heart is in this felted bag with a heart glass ornament and a cute luv bunny that I downloaded for free from Jennifer Hayslip.

 Grace: "A Friend is one of the best things you can be and one of the greatest things you can have"


Tammy: "Friends meet you in a tender place where it's safe to risk your heart"


Vivian: "Make new Friends but keep the old, one is silver the other is gold"

Carla: "Friends are the stiches that hold our hearts together"


Sandy: "Right next door or miles apart friends are allways close at heart"

Ruth:  "Friends live in your heart"

Natalea:  "A Friend is someone who sees through you and still enjoys the view"

Jeanne: ""A Friend is someone who knows the song to your heart and can sing it right back to you"

Lee:  "Each Friend represents a world in us"

My tree with all its treasures! I am so in "LOVE" with all the ornaments! They are so unique and so special.

I gave the girls Pink Mustaches to take pictures and post. Here is mine. When everyone takes pictures I will ask if I can do a fun mustache craze post! lol
