…how many Skittles are in this jar? Has it been a while since you played one of these guessing games? For me it was in the Fall when I had to guess the weight of this great big pumpkin. This 6″x 8″ jar was given to me by my Dad. He actually won it at a recent Holiday party. He carried it home on the Metro and received some interesting looks. Finally a teenager had to ask if he just won it. Go ahead and take a guess at the Skittles. I’ll reveal the answer in my next post. And I do apologize for the lack of postings here lately…I am guilty of being caught up in all of the holiday happenings. Tomorrow is my children’s class parties and their last day of school before winter break! Uh oh! No wonder I’m staying up so late to get things done…
I’ll be back to say Hello soon! 🙂

It snowed all day! Admittedly it was just a light snow, maybe covering an inch of the ground (okay, if you are reading this from Rochester you are rolling your eyes at me!). But it was one of those chilly, gray-cloud kind of days. The arrival of the snow turned my morning commute to the school and back into a 2 hour ride! After the awful traffic, we had some fun by attending the local high school “Tiny Tots” holiday concert. This was my 3rd year attending the event, and I missed my two older boys not being there with me this time.
These little earrings are made with silver stardust beads and a Swarovski rondelle for the “scarf”. I just had to post them today to celebrate our first snow. I made a bunch of these on request (a friend wanted them for teacher’s gifts and to send home to Canada) and have been meaning to post a few here at sweet bead studio.
…keep warm! I’ll check in again soon!

I’ve been tagged by Vince and Chrissie at TryChange. This meme was really simple and sweet.
…So this is a “Three Things I Can’t Live Without” meme. It is meant to be more personal things, not the essentials for survival things like air, water, and food.
1. Family – My pride and joy…..always there for me…what makes the world go ’round.
2. Friends – They make the “good†in life even better, and the “bad†bearable.
3. Hopes and Dreams – One of my favorite mottos is, “The possibilities are endless.” Dreams sure make life worth living.
I am tagging Angie Underhill of Bonfire Beads. I have a few of Angie’s lampwork bead sets and they are beautiful. Thanks Vince and Chrissie for giving me this occasion to stop and reflect.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
