spotted and hearted

January 11, 2012

Today is monumental in the Blodgett household. After 4 1/2 years of living in an off-white cube, we’re finally closing on our very first home. I think I’ll bake a cake.

Now moving on to some things I’ve spotted this week…

    woo hoo! any occasion is a good excuse to bake a cake (in my book), but this one really does deserve the preparation of a glorious baked good.

    Congrats on the move! I’m trying to think of the most suitable ‘moving cake’ but not coming up with anything clever…

    Congrats!! I’d bake you a cake if I trusted the German and US postal systems to not eat it before it got to you… ;)

    As soon as those little heart pins popped up on her blog, I wanted to buy one for everyone I love. They are adorbs. (That’s my mom’s new word; she uses it any time she talks about Justin Bieber.)

    congratulations on your new home! there is nothing more excited than deciding what to do with your home and not having to worry about the landlord… hope to see you soon!

    Congrats Melanie! Not only is being a home owner exciting, but (for me at least) 90% of the excitement comes from having a new space to decorate. Its like a blank canvas that’s all your own!
    Cant wait to see what you do with the place!
    xoxo
