Christmas Countdown

Christmas countdown at FlashBannerNow.com

I went for a morning jog today and since I was by myself I plugged in the old mp3 player. It just so happened to have in the mix some christmas music and I'm now feeling the overwhelming feeling to get shopping.... only how many days until christmas?????

(oh by the way... thanks Emily for the link to the countdown... I knew I could count on you to have that! buzzzzz is another one!)

pumpkin chocolate chip muffins

Just blog hopping and found this yummy looking thing... I'm going to call LUNCH!
go to the Idea Room for the recipe

It's Witche's Night Out!!

The MONSTER'S ....

Now... don't you wish you could come too? Come on over to Feather Your Nest or Bowcutts floral tonight 6-8 and Friday all day... get a cupcake, you won't be dissapointed!

31 pillows

The numbers are spray painted on. The back fabric is black and white checked. The embelishments are my favorite part. And nothing is complete without a little ribbon (I learned that from a friend a long time ago... and think of her everytime I tie a ribbon on anything. I wonder if she frequents the blogger world?... she would be happy to know that I found this ribbon at my local flower shop!)

Conference Weekend

Carmel Apples with white chocolate and cinnamon

(look for the recipe for homemade carmel on the recipe page)
bruschetta with parm, basil and cherry tomatoes

carrot cake cupcakes

afternoon drive to Mantua....

what does all this have to do with conference you ask? Well, if there is ever a weekend filled with traditions this is one for sure. It's all about being together, listening to conference, and doing the things that we all like to do together.

I loved conference, it was so uplifting and good. I have much room for improvement.

Hope it was a good weekend for you too.
