I am off to the Big City to spend a weekend with several lovely friends.

While I'm away, here are few things you really must check out.

• The lovely Stacy over at bellawish is raising funds for Wrap up Africa.  Her Be the Change necklaces are just beautiful!
• Kelly B ~ what can I say about this girl?  She is on fire!  Check out her new website, her baubles, her artwork...so talented!
• 31 winter poems by the lovely Dancing Mermaid ~ she is one of my favorite people evah!
• This girl constantly makes me laugh.  Her mother is pretty amazing too!
• Anne is always inspiring me.  Her writing just blows me away.  Is there nothing she can't do?
• I love and adore this amazing mama!
• I got to spend lots of time with the talented Jolie in October and she is one of the nicest people I know...and very talented!
• Check out my BFF's latest post up at wishstudio.  Her writing constantly inspires me.

There's more great stuff out there and I wish I could share all of it with you, but I need to go pack!  Hopefully I'll have lots of good stuff to share from my weekend away...although what happens in NYC stays in NYC right?!?
