Week 9 - A BONUS OF TIME

Leap Year, a bonus of an extra day. 

A person born on February 29th is called a leapling or a leaper. This year, I am going to a leapling's birthday party -- she will be 12 (in leap years that is).

Week 8 - CARNIVAL

Fat Tuesday, shiny beads, parades, and debauchery all come to mind this week with Mardi Gras just around the corner.  Did you know that Mardi Gras has been celebrated since 1699? That's a lot of bling.

Week 7 - OPPOSITES ATTRACT

When deciding on a challenge theme this week one cannot help but think of Valentine's Day. Apparently, it is not all about the kissy, kissy, pass the chocolate.
