A Little Bird...

...told me the birds needed a treat.

I like treats.
We even have a "treat" cupboard next to the stove.
I'm telling you that so when you come visit
you can feel fine about treating yourself.
(There is usually something minty, often some-
thing marshmallowey, always something chocolatey,
or if you're desperate, a stale Starburst.) Anyway, we
made a project of it and now everybirdys happy.


The boys picked the colors and
coordinated the roof to match the sky.
In the end, it was a perfect way to fill up
the afternoon...and a few bird's bellies.

Love the picture and the project. Great fun! Those birds are going to start having meetings on your patio - you better have a bird "food" cupboard! Really cute!! Mom in Finland
