"Caribbean Dreaming"

We colored eggs tonight, never quite replicating the "Caribbean Egg of 2009." Gwynn did that one, and it was just days before Tim and I were headed to Puerto Rico for a second (first, really) honeymoon. We got there and took one look at the water and remembered that EGG! It was uncanny how truly tropical blue she got it! Still, tonight's eggs brought color into an otherwise wishy-washy dreary kind of day.

It is that time of year, after all, in Upstate NY, when you really just want to get the hell out. Heading to Puerto Rico last year was heavenly. We have some ideas brewing for our upcoming April vacation, of some warm weather travel, but I am not banking on them yet. It is just that we have been in a deep freeze for so long, and this past month we have had tastes of nice weather, but it has been followed with more cold, or wind, or rain. 70's are promised for this weekend, but I don't trust them. Who's to say we won't be back down in the 40's by next Wednesday? I need some warmth and some SUN!

That being what it is, I am thinking of painting my nails OPI's Hawaiian Orchid...wishful thinking through nailpolish...a girl can dream, can't she?
