Today is Lewis Carroll Day!
While Lewis Carroll (whose real name is Charles Lutwidge Dogdson) is probably most famous for Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and to a lesser extent, Through The Looking-Glass, he also has a couple of great poems.  One of them, “Jabberwocky”, I first read in elementary school and I still love it.  It’s a perfect poem to read out loud; the nonsense words are fun to say and you get to shout things like Callooh! and Callay!
(A bit of trivia for you: the word chortle was made up by Carroll for use in that poem, and we still use it today to mean a joyful laugh.  Kind of neat for us word nerds.)
In honor of Lewis Carroll, here are some images representing his works.  I pinned them to one of my Pinterest boards for easy access; feel free to re-pin!

Pooh Bear Party Ideas

Winnie the Pooh Day Party Ideas

I don’t know how I missed it, but yesterday was Winnie the Pooh Day!  We are big Pooh fans here, including all his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood.  Baby C. adores him, too; she has a stuffed Pooh that she likes to snuggle.  To celebrate his big day, here are a few of my favorite fun Pooh party ideas, foods, and printables.

Disney's Beauty and the Beast 3D in theaters Jan. 13, 2012
Did you know that Disney’s Beauty and the Beast is returning to theaters on January 13th for a limited engagement?  And for the first time ever it will be presented in Disney Digital 3D.  Personally, I am thrilled.  Beauty and the Beast has always been one of my favorites!  (I even translated the lyrics from the theme song from English to French for my French class project my sophomore year of high school.)
There’s another treat from Disney: the all-new short Tangled Ever After will play before the Beauty and the Beast 3D feature!  I love that they’re combining a classic favorite with the characters from a classic in the making (so many people loved Tangled).  Here is a clip from the new short:

Our theme for the second week of Pin Me! Thursdays is New Year’s Resolutions.  Yesterday I shared my 2012 goals with you; today I’ll share some pins that expand on those goals.

Fitness!

I will be incorporating this arms & ab workout (plus some others).

Crafty-ness!

I will learn how to make these bracelets (and send a care package of them to A1 at college).

Cake Decorating!

I will attempt to do something similar to this for Baby C.’s 1st birthday (or practice enough so that I can for next year).

Organization:

I’ll be doing something very similar to this (keep an eye out for my post about it).

What are your New Year’s Resolutions?
