Congratulations to Janine + UPPERCASE!

My sister who works in the publishing sector emailed me on Monday + shared the above news as she knows i am a big UPPERCASE devotee.

i was waiting for it to show up on the UPPERCASE blog as i thought it would be nicer to hear it from the UPPERCASE folks first, you know?

the new Papier Valise newsletter will be arriving in mailboxes within the next few days. new crafting loveliness is on the horizon. this release is giving me butterflies, i must admit.

 

not yet on the newsletter list? you can sign up here.

 

and...it's the weekend. again.

 

 

looking forward to homemade asparagus soup + perhaps a loaf of homemade bread. i am going to glance in the Saturday paper for any church rummage sales--they always have the best stuff, especially in older neighborhoods. watch some movies recorded long ago. and i've pulled out some music that i've missed listening to---St. Germain (Tourist) I could listen to Sure Thing featuring John Lee Hooker over and over and over again + Kronos Quartet (Pieces of Africa) takes me back to Halifax. and sometimes on grey weather days that is what i need.

 

be sure and experience a few "want to's" in with the "have to's".

makes Monday so much easier.
