Last to be in the Loop: That is me. I just found out about Martha Stewart's new alliance with Avery labels.
I think these are only available at Staples. I really like them and the way they look a bit like the vintage Avery labels we all covet. Martha's are even a bit yellowed. Have I mentioned that Martha and I both lived in Westport CT at the same time? She used to cater parties I attended. I was at her home once for a fundraising event, but that would be another post.
Am I the last person to be reading "Unbroken" by Lauren Hillenbrand? I am engrossed in this book. I may have to close the store to finish it. Well, no, I wouldn't do that. It is intense and full of history and very well written.
Do you need ideas for Easter eggs?
There are some lovely ideas here.
Before you go, here is another use for the trendy tapes we all love right now. This is a great way to keep your flowers upright. The photo below may have used ribbon, but the tissue and washi tapes would work great for this.
This unintentionally seems to be a red/pink post. That is okay because red is my favorite color, although I am really drawn to red and yellow together. Do you have favorite color combinations?
Gasoline is $3.65 a gallon in our town today, down from $3.89 over the wekend.

I LOVE that Staples stuff! I have a $20 certificate there and will spend it all on Martha, alas. Thanks for the flower and washi tape idea - great!
My favorite color combination is red/orange with a slash of turquoise blue.
