#215: Fiesta Spider

Fiesta! We're stuck inside with Hurricane Irene bellowing outside, so we're basically eating everything in the house. That's what partying is all about. So far we've cleaned out an entire can of Omega-3 Planter's trail mix that I bought this morning, and we're working on some baked goods with chocolate chips. We'll probably eat popcorn and watch a movie if the power stays on. Tomorrow I plan to make some soup while the weather is still soggy. The warm, vibrant colors that I used for this spider are a welcome sign on this gray, wet, rainy day. Here's hoping everyone--our friends and loved ones from North Carolina to Baltimore to New Jersey to New York--stay warm and safe over the next couple of days.
