…Which means of course that THOUSANDS of people are going to see my signs!!! I can’t wait. It starts at 3pm and goes to 7:00 there are games and performances and a cooking contest and of course PRIZES!!
Maybe I’ll see you there. I’ll be the one taking selfies with all of the signs. 🙂
Happy Fluff Fest!!!
You can see pictures of all of my little babies at my gallery page: mandeemade.shutterfly.com and you can learn more about Fluff Fest at the Union Square Main Streets website.
In honor of this upcoming Monday being Marathon Monday in Boston I painted a course map of the marathon route on the window in the EU.
At the beginning of the marathon in Hopkinton, MA we have some excited runners posing for a photo next to the now-famous ‘Welcome to Hopkinton’ sign.
At the starting line you may recognize some familiar faces, father-and-son Rick & Dick Hoyt who to date have competed in over 1,000 races together. You can read more about their inspirational story at their website.
The race then takes you through Natick, into the halfway point in Wellsley, MA and then up the dreaded Heartbreak Hill in Newton.
Over the hump and down the hill, the route now goes through Brookline where a Subway car with the name Rosie on it speeds past the other runners. Rosie Ruiz famously “won” the 1980 Boston Marathon only to be stripped of her title moments afterward when it was revealed that she took the T for most of the course and actually only ran the last mile of it. Tsk! Tsk! Rosie!
The course goes through Coolidge Corner and towards a packed crowd at Fenway park which is the marker for the final mile of the race.
And, because one of our own is running the marathon this year, I obviously had to paint her a special message from some adoring fans and her cute dog, Bachi.
We’re proud of you Jackie! You’re gonna do great!!
Happy Marathon Monday everybody!!
Apple picking is a sure sign of better things to come. Things like sweaters and leggings and tights and boots and scarves! I love dressing for fall ALMOST as much as I love punkin flavored beverages and punkin flavored foods. Almost.
I wish I could give Fall a big squeeze to show it how much I missed it. Like this guy with his apple.
And now I know why! Fluff and peanut butter were made to be together. They’re the yin and yang of sandwich components. And so versatile! You can have a Fluffernutter for lunch, eat one as a snack or even have one for dessert. Can balogna and cheese do that?
If you’ve never had a Fluffernutter go make one right now. They’re delicious. And if you can’t buy Fluff (not Kraft Marshmallow Cream, mind you, there’s a difference) in your ‘hood then use this handy Fluff-Finder feature to hunt down the closest seller. And if that doesn’t work, you can get a case delivered right to your door. May your children never have to go Fluffernutter-less.
