Hope you had a nice Valentine’s Day.  Just thought I’d share a few things from Saturday, we ended up getting even more snow here over the weekend, along with frigid temperatures – which meant lots of time inside at home.

The library up the street held a “Blind Date with a Book” for Valentine’s Day…what a cool idea!  I ended up with The Dress Shop of Dreams, by Menna Van Praag.  Right up my alley so far…

Also made the BEST cookies in the world – Old Fashioned Sugar Cookies! It’s my mom’s recipe and will always be my favorite.

Even went all out and glazed a few.

Love,
Dora

Absolutely loving the fact that plaid flannel seems to be back in style.  I’ve been looking for a more modern looking red plaid scarf but haven’t had much luck finding one that’s reasonably priced…so I just made one!

I made this one a few years ago – like the pattern and still wear it occasionally, but wish it had more bulk.

So I made another this year, but with twice as much fabric to give it more volume.  Here it is!

Really easy to make, very cozy, and goes with a lot in my winter wardrobe.  Wore it last weekend on a trip up to Vermont.  It kept me warm and windproof while shopping and sightseeing around Manchester.

Here are a few more pictures from my Vermont Trip.

Stayed at The Equinox in Manchester again.  Love this place, lots of old Vermont charm, great spa, and a nice place to get snowed in (again).

And some really cool ice along Route 8 on the way back home.

33 days until spring!  Hope you enjoy this last month of winter.
