a spring day

While I was out and about today I stopped downtown to take some pics of the apple blossoms. It became overcast and cold as soon as I got there (of course) so my pics didn't turn out as well as I hoped. Perhaps I'll try again tomorrow. I love the apple blossoms downtown though, it's one of my favorite parts about living here. So pretty!

It was an awesome mail day today though!


First my fur muff came. I really wanted a fur muff for Coaching Day and now I have one - yay Ebay. The lining needs to be replaced but overall it's in good shape. Not bad for $16, aye? Now I just need to snag one for Bridget...


Then my Restoration earrings came. I adore them! They look so lovely and they have such a nice weight to them (they're glass). I think I'll be wearing them for more than just the Restoration gown... like for Easter! :P

Oo! The blossoms look so lovely, as do the earrings! All very springy and pretty!

Thanks! I do love a Virginia spring... something CA doesn't do half as well! :>

Jenny do please put your pretty new muff in the freezer for a week, to kill off any possible moths. I bought a second-hand muff once, and that is what started my plague of moths.

Oh great idea! Charlie (what can I say the muff needed a name!) is now happily hanging out in the freezer! A week you say, that is long enough?

According to what I read, a week is sufficient. Then give him a good brushing, or a shake in the open air. Then enjoy!!

Pretty earrings, and what a lovely muff. :)
