Happy Easter!
Contrary to my expectations, I have not abandoned Blogger. I decided that this was not the time to be messing with the transition to a self-hosted Wordpress blog. My schedule is cram-packed and I do not have enough energy at the end of the day to make paying for my own domain worthwhile. I have come to the conclusion that for the foreseeable future I will do the best with this blog that I can, and perhaps someday I will be able to invest in a better blogging platform, but. . .Today is not that day! (Bonus points and a virtual brownie to all who fully appreciate that statement.)
On to the purpose of this post!

The Promise of Spring: Forget-Me-Not Anna
Dear Readers,
Life is insane. At least insanely busy and wearying. I have been working as a nanny/housemaid for about two months now. This has resulted in having less time to work on various projects. Somehow amongst the craziness that I am happy to call my life, I managed to whip up this simple project:

Literary Heroine Blog Party!
Hello Everybody!
It is apparently that time of year again. Kelly from Accordion To Kelly is hosting the Literary Heroine Blog Party. I have seen blog posts and Pinterest pins about this event in the years past, but as I did not have a blog or did not see it in time, I have never participated before.

Valentine's Day
Happy Valentine's Day!
I hope you all had a fantastic Valentine's day. Mine was filled with chocolate, caramel, sewing (I am making Photographer Sister a "Valentine's dress that should be up on the blog tomorrow.), a little Downton Abbey(I am not particularly fond of the new season so far. . .), and lots of laughter. I wanted to pop in to wish you all a lovely day and show you my outfit. It is not overtly Valentinesy, as you will see, but I thought it worked out rather well.

Mint Anna
Good Grief!
Time flies much, much too fast when one is busy. But that is life I suppose. Here is another dress that I made over the holiday season: Mint Anna. Or Anna Mint. Whichever you prefer.
