I'm aware this morning that anything I decide to talk about is gonna seem frivolous...what with so much death and destruction in the 12 states across the mid-west of the united states, from the slew of tornadoes that came through (You can see a report from March 3, 2012 > HERE <. I couldn't find any more recent video online, but it was terrible!!}...The reports are even worse this morning. :-(
The lone survivor, the little toddler, Angel Babcock, that was put on life support after one of the tornadoes hit their house, died last night. :-(
Then there's the Kilauea volcano's destructive path that finally won the battle against this guy's house...

So...be prepared for frivolousness. EVERYTHING could have that title today!...But...maybe that's what we need today...frivolousness...and music...and crochet...And whatever else will give us something to smile about, right?! :-]
What made me smile yesterday was seeing the tutu in the header photo!...A Paris window with a tutu with musical notes on it! :-) What a great photo!...And here's some more things that made me smile too...Pretty buttons!...
(Bakelite Buttons by BigFish)
...and some cloth-covered button earrings!...
...and a colorful necklace!...
...and a pretty clutch...
...some really pretty feathers (that I may need for some future boutonnieres!)...
...a really nice timepiece!...
...a fun plate!...
...a beautiful color-filled bracelet!...
...and lastly, some really colorful and fun, smile-inducing, boxes!...
Are you smiling yet?! :-) If not, maybe my new crocheted fingerless glove will take you over the edge! ^_^ ...
Ignore the snow part though, or you definitely won't be smiling!! LOL
I'm about half way through the other one now. I even wrote the pattern out!! :-) I'm thinking about selling patterns for some of my crochet items....THINKING about it!!! :-)) ... Then it'll be on to the next thing, after that! We'll "all" have to wait and see what that'll be! ^_^ No!...I don't know either! LOL
In the meantime...here's some music to make you smile too! :-) Have a good day everybody!!

Reasons To Smile
I don't really need a reason,
to let out a great big grin;
But I do from time to time,
just to exercise my chin.
Sometimes I do it just to see
what reaction I will get,
in the places where I've gone,
and the people that I've met.
Sometimes it's just for me!
To amuse some silly thought;
Or to show just how excited
I have been at what I bought.
Sometimes a smile can change my mood,
when weather forecasts make me blue;
Or when I see a baby playing!
Oh yes! Oh Yes! I smile then too!
Truth is, I really don't need a reason.
Frowns just,frankly, aren't my style.
I could sit and write about it,
But even that would make me smile.
