Post-Easter sugar crash

We had a nice Easter. Nothing too exciting. We spent the day with Gabriel's family. I bought Peeps just for Mark because that was the only candy I figured he could handle. Besides, everyone loves Peeps. He HATED them. Well, at least it didn't go over as well as I hoped. He licked the yellow sugar off . Then he tried a bite of marshmallow and spit it out. That was that.
Grandma had some mini chocolate bars, so he had a mini Mounds. That he liked so much that we had to hide the chocolate because he wanted it all.

I have been working for the past week on this new layout. I coded it myself, but I don't know if I did it right or not. Let me know if it looks all wonky. I checked it with Firefox and IE on my computer and it looks OK. I still have to get all my personalized sidebar stuff up. So please be patient. I didn't delete your link. :)

I tried to validate the code through W3C, but because Blogger uses all those non-standard tags for posting and comments, it failed validation. I don't know if 1) I coded XHTML wrong, 2) it is just Blogger's tags and there is nothing I can do about it, or 3) if I used Bloggers tags incorrectly. How important is checking validation, anyway?

I have so much sewing I need to get done. I have 5 little projects that I want to finish today. The biggest one is a bag to store our down comforter in. Last year I just stored it in the plastic zipper bag it came in. But when I went to get it in the fall, it was yellowed and smelled like ass. REALLY bad. It needed to be deep cleaned. So I want to make a cloth bag so it can breath. I can't just put it in the closet folded because uncompressed it takes up over half of it.

I don't really have any other thoughts to share today. Taking 4 days off from blogging has really thrown a curve ball in my thinking process. I missed you all. It will probably take a few days to catch up with reading and visiting.
