obama

This morning I woke up to multiple inches of snow on the ground, which makes today all the more magical. Since North Carolina is completely unprepared for winter weather, everything has slowed way down. Schools, offices closed. I can’t wait to bundle up on the couch and watch Obama’s inauguration with a glass of champagne (or maybe a stack of pancakes.)

I picked up this handmade Obama pin at our fundraiser this past fall. Isn’t it great?

    You shouldn’t have to choose between champagne and pancakes. Hope you had both! We had turkey chili and water, but I plan on getting my champagne on tonight!

    Thank you please sir! i love your blog and just realized you’re not on my blogroll – will have to add.

    alika – the pins aren’t available, unfortunately! the girl who made them just made a bunch during the election and passed them out. it’s too bad, because they’re so cute.

    and to all – pancakes and champagne ARE a good combo, you’re right :)

    Haha I’m in Cary NC and that’s what I did too! Except hot chocolate instead of champagne. I love snow days.
