Good Morning, Monday!

How is today treating you? Are you a morning person-- up and at em' in the AM? or do you hit snooze at least five times (and set the alarm to go off a good 20 minutes before wake-up time? because you know that you.will.hit.snooze.5 times? :D), get out of bed grumbly (and stay that way till your morning cuppa fills you with warmth and sunshine on the inside)---yeah, guess which bracket I fall in!!! oh well, now that my insides are liquid gold and goodness, let me fill your morning with some sunshiny images, or at least give you a jolt of color to get you energized!!

What are your plans for the week ahead? I hope they include visiting your favorite blog-around-the corner (!!) --there's an exciting artist profile and home tour brewing here at P&P central (I'm facing a technical glitch, which I hope will be resolved in a timely manner..); there's also going to be the usual mix of decor, jewelry, some gup-shup (chit-chat) and loads of inspiration, so I hope to see you around in this space. I would also like to put out a request for crafty submissions for a week of "reduce, reuse, recycle"(planning on running this sometime in August..)...do you have any clever ways of reusing and upcycling materials that might end up in a landfill? Please share your inspiration with us; e-mail your ideas (preferably with photographs, or if you've already blogged about it, with links to your blog posts...). Let's see what we can do to reduce our footprint on planet Earth.
