Throughout last week, we heard about all that big snow that would head for Connecticut buy the end of the weekend. Then, the Weather Channel called it a"dynamic storm" and, poof, the snow was off the Conneticut grid. Dynamic is as dynamic does, though, so who knew what would happen until it happened? So we went to the mall.
The new Microsoft Store at the West Farms Mall was packed. There was no getting near it. It was a cool thing to see Microsoft giving the little-i people a run for the money. I've never been a fan of i-products, and I became a negative fan after my i-Pod (a gift) screen shattered after falling onto my foot and a carpet and the company wanted to charge me $20 to talk to customer service.
We were on the prowl for some all-black performance clothes for Adella's All-State concert in April, and we found them at Nordstrom--on sale. Beautiful thing! Feeling good about that, we made our way to one of Adella's favorite stores that we can't afford, Anthropologie.
We love the displays in there. This elliptical string-art thing hanging over the bed was pretty cool. It's shape mirrored the bamboo infinity loop half just a few yards away.
These chairs made me think of Pippi Longstocking.
On Sunday, we celebrated Maeve's first birthday with canine cupcakes and a new toy.
Adella's friend Mo came over for the celebration and to work on homework. And the snow did not come.
