March 31st




It's been raining for two days straight. We've had tornado warnings and watches all day. The sky was definitely looking green.

March 30th




In honor of the Top Chef All Stars finale, the tyke sported this onesie.

My husband gave our son a faux hawk. Luckily, he only used water so it didn't stay for long.

I made cupcakes today. And after several attempts, I successfully made swiss meringue buttercream. It is my new favorite frosting.


A cupcake thief also struck. Luckily, he got one before they were frosted.

Last post about Epcot. These are some pictures that I took of stuff other than topiaries.


March 25th


More topiaries from the Flower and Garden Festival. I found it very challenging to photograph some of them. Many were in direct sunlight, and sometimes the best angle to view them were not the best angle for lighting.


The topiaries are strategically placed around the park. The Beauty and the Beast characters were at France, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves were at Germany.


I thought Lightning McQueen would be by Test Track, but he was at the entrance to the World Showcase. I've heard whispers that Mater was supposed to be with Lightning, but maybe he hasn't grown to maturity yet.

I have gone crazy over the Flower and Garden Festival at Epcot. I've been in previous years, but it seems like Disney has really stepped things up this year. There are a lot of new topiaries, like these characters from Toy Story 3.



The grounds are more gorgeous than ever, with all the new landscaping they have done. The next few posts will be from my visits there.




March 23rd




Took the tyke to the Science Center. He loved pretending he was in the cockpit of a space shuttle.

There is a beautiful amaryllis blooming in a bucket on our front walk. This thing is almost 3 feet tall, and has four blossoms opening up.
