If we'd used small puzzle pieces, too, I think I would have had the girls do the hearts in paint pen.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18141123092139829629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255877501892467740.post-91858620472543330462013-02-03T08:55:47.485-05:002013-02-03T08:55:47.485-05:00so sorry to hear that you have been sick. if i wou...so sorry to hear that you have been sick. if i would have seen this sooner, i would have come over to bring you soup and orange juice and make you hot toddies or whatever else you needed! sounds like you are on the mend.<br />i love these puzzle pieces, but i was wondering if they warp when painted? it looks like they do not. we have 55 to make, plus family. we need to get a valentine factory going over here...<br />cakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18022650911172987454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255877501892467740.post-25149682953826217512013-01-31T09:00:46.905-05:002013-01-31T09:00:46.905-05:00That's so funny, because I've watched, lik...That's so funny, because I've watched, like, two seasons of Warehouse 13 during this sickness. When I had strep last month, I watched something like three seasons of Parks and Recreation. I'm about to start re-watching The West Wing, because I never saw the last season. And I'm very slowly, whenever the mood hits, watching classic Doctor Who, mostly so I can pick up the references to it that they sometimes drop into the current Doctor Who series.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18141123092139829629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255877501892467740.post-61933780256148633322013-01-30T16:47:06.637-05:002013-01-30T16:47:06.637-05:00Oh, Jerico was a great show, but we were so bugged...Oh, Jerico was a great show, but we were so bugged that they stopped the series. <br /><br />Another good one is Warehouse 13. A new spin on X-Files. <br /><br />we also love Lie to Me, Burn Notice, and Bones.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09611764295297526639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255877501892467740.post-11029976531642261932013-01-30T14:55:11.085-05:002013-01-30T14:55:11.085-05:00Bored of Netflix??

All the kids got those super fancy Valentines with candy and stickers and whatever. We were the only ones to give out handmade Valentines, just because I can't stand to buy them, even if they are super cheap. This year, our party is on Valentine's Day itself, so I bet that LOTS of people will do handmade!<br /><br />I REALLY like the idea of best friend necklaces! Currently, we only have a giant Melissa and Doug floor puzzle that's missing pieces; I'm going to try that whenever we come across an incomplete puzzle with smaller pieces.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18141123092139829629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255877501892467740.post-58881879908544809022013-01-29T16:31:37.382-05:002013-01-29T16:31:37.382-05:00I love the idea of the heart puzzle pieces!

How much fun would that be to make best friend necklaces out of puzzle pieces (or sister necklaces, or well, you get it). <br /><br />Sorry to hear your sick. I would happily send you some homemade chicken broth (or veggie broth) if I thought it would make it. <br /><br />I hope you feel better soon!Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09611764295297526639noreply@blogger.com
