For those who get their Happy Meals at McDonalds the regular ole fashioned way, you are really missing out. Since we’ve had a baby, we started asking for the Under 3 Toddler Toys in her Happy Meals. The Under 3 toys are far better than the things you get in the normal Happy Meal. They have become an obsession – they have become a collection… Who could not love these Ronald McDonald themed toys? We got two adorable new ones yesterday:

Today we went to Hobby Lobby, and once I get in that place, I find far too many things that I “need”… I’ve been wanting to get this print of van Gogh’s Sunflowers for our room, and it was HALF PRICE, so how could I resist??
Rob got a beautiful frame for his PMTC Certificate:
Well, and I’ve been needing a huge knitting needle for a certain project I’m planning on working on (Blog about that in the near future). The only HUGE knitting needles I could find were glitter ones… LOL…
And, of course I “needed” some crochet hook grips 
(Will let you know if they help):
And the YARN!!!

I’m on a quest to find the best coffee/frap/espresso high that I can find. We had tons of errands to run today, so we had to start out early after Kristin and Jewell left for school. Rob bought me a Starbucks Vanilla Frappaccino first thing to get me going… Every time I drink one of these, I have to wonder the story behind their logo (And I’m sorry, but is that lady sporting her own set of dreads??)… I snapped a quick cell pic for reference:
(Looks like it could be dreads to me :-P)
To find out info about the actual evolution of the Starbucks Logo, I found this link (tho no mention of dreadlocks).
Anyway, after the frap, we ran through McD’s drive thru and got the beloved Large Vanilla Iced Coffee, and then on to Springfield to Big Momma’s for an ICED ESPRESSO DOUBLE SHOT…. I was okay before that, but I was GREAT afterwards… Then on to Hobby Lobby… (haha.. That’s the next post)…

I started crocheting a kitty hat last night, and brought it with me to crochet while we ran our errands today. We had Chinese Food for lunch, and I got this fortune:
In case you can’t read it (Sorry for the blurry cell pic), it says:
“Try a new hat for a change in looks. Be creative!”
(And it turned out big enough to fit over my puny dreads)
Bahaha… Meow =^.^=
