A day that only comes every 4 years!

Happy Birthday to all the leaplings out there!! Anybody having a birthday celebration today? If you are, I hope it's a huge party :D I know of a gentleman who is having his big sweet 16th bash today and he is 64 years old! How fab is that? It's a special day in more than one way. It also marks the end of the dreadful February, and it's Friday! You should treat yourself.

In another news, Ma Petite Chou will have a new home soon. My guy got me my own domain name as a surprise gift (after he saw how frustrated I was with Blogspot when they locked my site for almost a month back in January), he's helping me with the move right now. He's smarter with this techie stuff than I am. I'm very excited to have my own site. I'll announce the new address as soon as it's up and running.

The heiress

I'm on the hunt for some estate inspired jewels. They have been big statement sparklers over the winter season, and they will continue to be in the spring. There's gotta be gems, gold, silver, crystals, pearls, and of course diamonds. The bigger, brighter, and shinier the better. The designs are classic and ornate, and exude opulence. If you are one of the lucky ones that actually have estate jewels from your grandma, bring them out of the vault ;).
