Good morning! How are you feeling today? I am very excited because I am beginning to pack for a trip that I have been planning for quite some time – Benny and I are taking off tomorrow evening for California to visit family and friends, and then continuing on to Maui for a babymoon! Woohoo! For the first time ever on this blog, I have worked ahead of time to prepare posts, so you can still expect to “see” me here every day over the next two weeks. And of course I will be popping in to monitor comments and say hi! I have been thinking a lot lately about connection and collaboration, and I thought this would be a good opportunity to share a few other ways you can connect with me outside of this blog, if you would like…
I admit, I have been a bit slow to hop on the whole social media bandwagon, but I think it is finally winning me over! It is so nice to be able to communicate and connect with friends, family, readers, and other bloggers all around the world – I mean, don’t you think that’s actually pretty amazing? So here is my info, in case you would like to connect with me, beyond the blog…
:: Flickr
:: Formspring (ask me anything!)
In other news, just to plant a little seed in your head, I am considering planning a blogger/maker meetup sometime this spring or summer in the Providence area, or potentially in Boston – this would be a chance to connect local bloggers, readers, and crafters/designers/artists in a fun, casual way. So if you live in the area and this sounds like something you might be interested in, let me know in the comments or email me…or tweet it, send me flickr mail, or post it on my facebook page! lol. Seriously though, I would love to know if any of you are into this idea, and I would love to connect with you.
Have a lovely Thursday, and I will see you back here tomorrow morning with Sweet Obsessions Friday!

Have a wonderful trip! I’ve never been to Maui, but I’m sure it will be heaven! Wish I lived in the your area, but it’s a rather long drive from Minnesota :) Maybe someday!
