When I want to make homemade cards or get some ideas for scrapbooking, I know that I can always got to Scrappin’ on the Boulevard to take classes, get great advice and buy all the supplies I need. They have everything you need to get started making greeting cards, photo albums and other great paper projects. If you love paper and riboon, you will love going here. I have never seen so many different colors and designs in my life. I would love to own a whole wall of ribbon like they have in their store.

Calypso Coffee Company- Music in Coeur d’Alene
I am always looking for a place to get something hot to drink and just be able to sit and relax with a book, or bring my computer and get some work done. Well, I have finally found the perfect place for all of that and more. At the urging of my husband we stopped in at Calypso Coffee Company at 116 E. Lakeside Ave. on a Saturday night. The place was packed and the music, by Josh Hedlund was wonderful. When we got home I even looked him up on the Internet to find out where else he might be playing. Calypsos is a family friendly coffee house that also features a roaster on site. Coffee is roasted several times a week and is offered for sale by the pound as well as the cup.

Around Halloween we were watching The World’s Scariest Places. They always show the Stanley Hotel (where The Shining was filmed) and we always say how we are going to stay there one night.
