A trip to Targay the other day rendered a quick look see thru the dollar and now $2.50 dollar bins as you enter the holy grail of doorways.

My nephew had a milestone 3 year birthday ahead of him at the most kid friendly and attended place on the planet Incredible Pizza.

Anyhow, he is a bit of a wrangler and Tom and I brought him some necessary cowboy gear on his birthday, but I was in need of a show up cute gift.

So, enter the Targay robot drink cup and magnetic number and letter refrigerator magnets.

Easy, and just to say Happy Birthday again!

A little cello and some Chinese red ribbon and we were in business.

3-dimensional like cup, so cute and colorful filled with alpha and numeric magnets.

My kiddos loved to play and spell with these.

The finished product, took all of no time and was so cute and colorful on an otherwise dark and dreary day (outside) lot's of colorful birthdays going on inside the I.P.

Fire and ice....

A little fire......

Unfortunately and then fortunately we were out of power the other evening.

The other evening,half way into dinner we lost power in a small section of midtown for around two hours.So, after pulling the generator out (purchased after out massive snow storms a few years ago).

After the holidays,my candle supply was low and of small supply.

We did manage to power up the generator,finish dinner and we elected to dine by candle light.(Even after the power came back on)!

The kids were not sure why we did that, but it was an interesting way to dine,sip wine and really talk about our day without electronic distractions.

Shutter the thought of no t.v., Internet signal or charging capabilities.

Now, when it is avoidable that is one thing, but even after the fact we played along with the darkness.

To me it was the perfect ending to a very busy day!
