Raven and Lily

By -
I was looking at this blog today and look what I came across, Raven and Lily.  I love to hear how people are helping others all over the world but I must say that I have a soft spot for Africa.  I was browsing a bit and came found the shop by region option.  How excited was I to find out that Burundi Artisans were included?  Yep, you are right, VERY excited!! They make some beautiful items at reasonable prices and the women that are making them are earning a fair wage to take care of themselves and their families, plus it just sounds like Raven and Lily are doing wonderful work to help impoverished woman all over the world.  I can't wait to spend more time on this site and learn all about their work.  But I could not wait to post and share with all of you.
 
Remember, Cora has a birthday coming up in April, hint hint, Jim (or anyone else), I really love the bag and the coffee sleeves!

As she says "I'm a good bicycle rider now!"   Hope everyone is having a happy Father's day!

Pictures!!! I finally figured out how to add pictures to my Blog from Windows 8!.  I got a new laptop for my birthday and although I love that it I am no longer scared it is going to start fire, I have a ton more memory and it has a great backlit keyboard, I HATE Windows 8.  Seriously, I don't know how they could make things more difficult by trying to simplify them but congratulations Microsoft you have out done yourself.  I typically don't mind a little change and I think it takes a lot to frustrate me when it comes to technology but I'm seriously considering returning this just because of the operating system. Thanks to Gina, I was finally able to up load some pictures but last night I was ready to chuck the computer out a window. Enough complaining, I thought I would share a couple of my favorite pictures lately.   I don't notice it everyday but sometimes when I look at a picture I feel like I am getting a glimpse of what Chloe will look like in 5 years.  She i
