Saturday

Last night I went on a lovely little date with my husband. He took me to 518 West which is a cute little Italian restaurant downtown.

It was a great end to a long week. :)

I plan on a doing a bit of crafting this weekend too! I bought a candle from Target (my FAV) a few weeks ago and I've finally burned it all that I can. So I'm planning on "melting" out all the other wax, possibly spray painting it, and turning it into a "catch all dish". If it's a success, I'll share it here! And in all likelihood, I'll be working on this project with my new favorite blogger. :)
