I think a list like this is a great idea. I did something like this about three years ago. I never did get it all done but it made me more aware of some of my goals and dreams.
Some of these are really cool. I like buy 52 $1.00 items. Interesting to see what you come up with. I'm making spring rolls too ! I have the pastry already sitting in my freezer.
And I vowed last year to make Christmas stockings this year. Poor Little P still doesnt have one. Remind me of that one in October and we'll do together.
Naturally 28 is my favourite...
I am a fan of #18, 21, 43 and of course #51 - if we make those invites I'll just address one to you. FYI #48 is missing something?
Actually, I and W is just smooshed together. That would be Ila and Walter.
