Fifty-Four Forty or Fight

We got snow yesterday… that’d be MARCH 9th. Despite this minor blip in what is now daffodil picking season here on the south island, this is an excellent time for our American friends to invade the 49th for a wee visit.

Hint Hint!

Doesn't anybody read here?!

Is it that we don't seem enticing enough? I am sure the snow will be gone soon, you needn't be afraid of it!

Or is it us you're afraid of....

I read here. I just assume it isn't me you're inviting. ;-)

Qacei and I will be up as far as Seattle in April. Are any bribes forthcoming to get us across the border?

The weekend of April 24-26th is all yours!! Craig makes a darn fine waffle, even by Sunnyside Up's high standards, even if I do say so myself. Effie says she'll show you how to needle felt and sculpt with beeswax if you come hither! I am guessing that dancing to Hannah Montana on the Wii may not seem to you like a big draw, but if you've seen Craig's "Winter Movie", you'll know that going head to head with the man of the house can be quite entertaining (as can watching me Wii bowl, apparently, though I deny it!). Just being in a room with Fergus on his home turf is an experience of a lifetime! We can also torture you with Craig's puzzles! And today we ate the most scrumptious chocolate covered square come ooey gooey thing that I am just dying to have an excuse to ask the recipe for - so I'll promise to make that for you all if you come, and almost (but not quite) top jesus h christ on a pogo stick brownies! And of course, anything you buy here will be 30% off - now how can you resist that!?
