Art Time with Nick

Using RemoteNick playing with my new wireless remote. Best thirteen bucks I’ve spent in a long time.

Protecting Me Against MyselfSome of us are apparently too klutzy to leave a pedicure without saran-wrapped feet. My partner in crime left without saran-wrapped feet. Apparently I need protection from myself.

LoveLow-fat black cherry smoothie from Panera. It just might be my new obsession.

Playing Suffocate the CatThis is a new game called “let’s see if we can suffocate the cat before he tries to escape.” No cats were harmed during this game.

Two Out of Three

Double TroubleI heart this. Aptly titled Double Trouble.

DessertPistachios. Honey. And a bunch of I don’t know what, but so very good.

Smells Like SummerI smell summer!

Alright, folks, now that the weekend review is done, Sweetnicks is going on Spring Break for this coming week. We have a bunch of plans and are going off in different directions towards the end of the week, and it’s time to unplug. Disconnect. Refill the tank. And be intentional.

Have a wonderful week … I’ll see you back here next Monday.

P.S. I had the PERFECT picture to announce Sweetnicks’ spring break, but in the interest of keeping my sister speaking to me, I wasn’t allowed to publish it. But darn it, it was good.  You’ll just have to take my word for it.
