Last Week in February

We ended up going to Cella Bistro last night.  Mmmmmm. . . wild mushroom salad.  Super tasty.  Today was the first day that I really felt like spring was around the corner.  The girls must have spent 2 hours playing in the backyard.

Cute husband’s working for the rest of the day (on a Sunday!  I know!), so I’ve barely scraped this post together–alas, no witty prose for you.  There are also a few different fun theater events coming up, so I’ll be posting about them sometime this week.   I also noticed, while I was poking around and looking for fun for you, that Tumbling Tykes is offering classes for the toddler/early preschool set in Clifton Park in March.

Meanwhile, here’s what else is going on:
