Hello, everyone! I am visiting my family in Florida, so I’m taking a short break from all the cutting and pasting. I’ll be back in a couple of weeks, though… probably with lots of newly remembered childhood stories. Hope you’re all having a fun Spring Break! If you’re not on Spring Break, I hope you’re having a fun little Spring Break in your heart.
By the way, I’m participating in Munch Madness over at Knuckle Salad, so if you love snacks and filling out brackets, you might want to check it out!
The Middlest Sister 
Have a great holiday !!
Have a very delightful and adventurous Spring Break with your family!!
You are loved! <3
Typically at this time of the year, I would be ‘jealous’, but we’ve had such a splendid winter, here in wisconsin, (WAAAAY above average!) that all I have to say is, “Whatch out for the gators baby!” ENJOY :) !
Haha! I [SPOILERS!] grew up mainly in Florida, so it’s less of a destination spot for me and more of a return of lizards breathing hotly on my neck, giant bugs flying in my face, and plague-like mating seasons of creatures like land crabs and locusts. Here’s a picture of me and a giant grasshopper from a visit last year:
and one of my daughter poking at one
OMG! Land of the giants! My mom lives in florida ( just south of orland ) I don’t recall EVER seeing one that big, wow! I do say though, those giant beetles have caught me off guard a time or two! Your little girl is sweet :) Have a good visit! Thanks for the pics!
woah. that looks juicy. either that or i need to eat lunch
lol! or you might need therapy! then again I’ve heard plenty things about dipping in chocolate ;) Course they’d have to charge a bit more for the gourmet big daddy version! yum-yum??!
I got in so much trouble from everyone over that dang locust, everyone was so suddenly protective over it…I blame your picture.
Happy vacation middlest sister. We’re gonna be missing you till you’re back!
i love the colours! nice postcard. have a good hols
Your adorable daughter looks as if she’ll be providing a new round of fun cartoons for the future!

Cannot deal with bugs of that size. Ew.
Finding it humorours that even your “Taking a break from cutting and pasting” involves “cutting and pasting” ! Have a great time!
I was gonna say the same thing about the cutting and pasting thing, haha.
You never fail us, Nikki.
Enjoy your holiday! :)
I love the cockroach (excuse me, the “palmetto bug”) on your postcard. I value truth in advertising :)
Just occurred to me. You should make a middlest sister font.
Will be looking forward to more posts! I always love your work and your stories. =)
Enjoy your vacation! I hope that you have a splendid time!!!
OMG, I’m in a family of 5 girls as well, and the middlest sister in our family lives in Florida! I thought I was reading her blog in a parallel universe or something … :)
Thank you for including the palmetto bug.
I feel the same tender way about that roach.
I also wanted to compliment the palmetto bug. Nothing says Real Florida like those fuckers (although, growing up, they were just “roaches” until I learned that the rest of the country referred to roaches as something much less terrifying).
Awww, have a wonderful time!
Have a wonderful time with your family! I’m enjoying my spring break, too. My daughter is home from college this week and we’re having a splendid time!
BEAUTIFUL! Have a wonderful vacation :)
Have a fantastic time! BTW – the bugs in Louisiana are just as bad – if not worse. That’s why I don’t live there anymore!
Have a great Easter break!
Beautiful grasshopper! Gorgeous daughter! You look great, too! :)
Love the letters in FL
Aw, I miss you already! Happy Florida! Love the postcard.
