An Original

This is Peek of the Week worthy but since it's only Tuesday and the polish is likely to wear by then, I give you an incidental monumental moment.

You see, it's here in my 485th (whoa) post that I can note and say with some certainty, I have had an original thought.

I'm clear on this platform...most of the ideas are not mine. I'm an excellent executor. You give me the idea, I'll make it so. I may even improve upon it. But usually the brains behind things here are the fella's, or Eli's, or Yaya's. They come from a book or a pattern, or let's face it...pintrest.

Yesterday I had one of my own.

I spent much of the day looking forward to a little self care evening which was to include situation comedy and a manicure. And then it came to me...

a tiny mustache on an index finger. So simple. So whimsical.

Trivial, yes. It's no cure for cancer, unless what they say is true and laughter is, in fact, the best medicine. But to me it's like a miracle. This ol' brain, she's still got some life in 'er.

Peek of the Week - May 18, 2012

So this is pretty exciting. I'm gonna jump right in.

See my cute little mustachioed kiddos up there? Well you could also see them on ABCNews.com, the Stamford Advocate, TreeHugger News (really?), the Dallas News, the Daily Record, and more.

Like for example, the Shreveport Times. We've been featured in an article about the marvelous mustache called "Crafters Embrace the Mighty Mustache," written by a new friend and AP writer, Jennifer. Thanks Jennifer!

Pretty doggone exciting.

So that's my Peek of the Week. What's yours?

What's Peek of the Week you ask? It's our semi-regular Friday feature where we hear all about what cool things you other crafty families and blogging types have been up to. Tell us about your projects, finished or in-progress, a funny kid moment, a personal accomplishment or just something that made you smile.

Each week I'll get the ball rolling by sharing a Peek from our week and then invite you to do the same by linking up to your own post.

You could get peeking in three easy steps:
1. Blog about your Peek of the Week - whatever it is. Whatever happened that made you proud, laugh, smile, inspired, excited, or just plain happy - now that's worth sharing.
2. Include a link to this blog or put the Peek of the Week button (on the sidebar) in your post.
3. Link your blog post using the InLinkz button below.

If you don't get a chance to get here on Friday, feel free to link your post up later.
The InLinkz button will be active for 5 days.

Mustache Monday

A wee bit o' silliness for your Monday. 

And, as a bonus, I found it on Pintrest, here.  Felt Paci Mustaches...genius.

 And here's where she spit it out.

I hope folks treat you well this Monday, and if they don't, don a mustache. They'll never know it's you.
