LavitaDulce
Jay and I, plus 2 went to Southpoint (mall) yesterday. It's quite an elaborate place--with places like NORDSTROM, MACY's, and a coffee shop named LavitaDulce. (THE SWEET LIFE)...oh, and let me tell you..their coffee is divine! What a name for a sweet little coffee shop! I loved the cup so much, that I couldn't help but snap a picture of it in the car on the way home. Throughout the mall, there are little bronze children. They are on landings, on bicycles, you name it. Parker saw one and started talking to the little boy. My heart warmed up inside me. He patted the little boy's head and bent down. I whipped out my camera and couldn't resist. His childish wonder, friendliness. So sweet. I wanted to share the picture with you. Also, I came home inspired. After the boys went to bed I tore out all of my fabric pieces, dishtowels from target, and ribbons. I setup my sewing machine on the kitchen table and went to town. I'm really proud of the dishtowels. They are very spring-y. Of course, I woke up today and it's grey. So, the dishtowels are great to see. I've got to figure out an avenue to sell these cutesy things I'm making. Hope y'all enjoy the pictures, and the prospect of spring!

About Me
- Oak City Books
- Welcome to my blog. It's a dedicated place for my book reviews, criticism, and love of all things bookish. I am a mom of 4 busy kids that uses reading as my, "thing." I find that reading books turns off all (okay, mostly all?) of the noise of my world and lets me get away for a bit. Reading helps me escape the reality of the piles of laundry that will never be done, the dust bunnies that I swear will one day grow legs, and the emails and outlook calendar that occupy my life Monday- Friday during working hours. Reading is therapy for me and always has been. I've always been a big dork, introverted, creative, and reflective. If I won the lottery tomorrow, I'd probably open up a used bookstore with my standard poodle somewhere on the side of the mountain and surround myself by others who enjoy passing their time reading. Until then, I'll keep on keeping on. And, I'll settle for reading when I can. Which, I try to fit in as much as possible. Cheers to your busy life and mine, doing the best we can, as often as we can.
