I love a walk on the beach...
I spied these containers a while ago, and just had to add them to my baking display items. What would you do with them?
Join Candace Nelson (Sprinkles Cupcake founder) and Orlando Hudson at the La Jolla Sprinkles shop July 28th, from 11am to 1pm, to kick off a fundraiser for CATCH Foundation. 100% of the proceeds from the sales of the Padres Vanilla cupcakes will go to the foundation. And don't forget to visit the Sprinkles Facebook page and like them so you can start getting the whisper word of the day! If you haven't been before, you are in for a treat!
I have just been itching to get to this little pile of paper I've had sitting in my workroom for a few weeks! For all those of you with little boys, Rocket Age is to die for cute!
Dear Family and Friends- I know that I haven't posted for a while...most of you know about Scott, but I wanted to let you know a little of what happened. Today, I am doing okay. Tomorrow, I will be back to work. The night before Scott passed, I sent in my paperwork to join up with BlogHer.com, a blogging network that will give my blog more exposure. I wouldn't want anyone to think that this is an attempt to "move on", but I do need to "move forward". Please don't think that I am abandoning my grief. Think of it as if I had a regular job (if you know of anyone hiring, let me know!) and that there are bills that will need to be paid. I have been blogging for almost 2 years now. Scott never understood why I loved to blog. He would ask me what I got out of it. I really just loved to do it. It was something that I decided to try on a monthly basis, just in case I didn't stick with it. Now...I think I was being prepared to earn a living, or maybe at least suppliment it. I hope that you have enjoyed coming to my website. If you do, you can continue to support me by clicking through to my website - there will be advertisements on my pages, and the more people that go there, the better my chances for earning a living through my ideas and writing. Thanks to all for your prayers, love and kindnesses. It helps me to continue on. Thank you, thank you, thank you, with all my heart!
Did you realize that today is National Sugar Cookie Day?
Will Megan ever forgive me?
Happy 4th of July!
I am quickly approaching my 55th birthday – a time of great celebration on my part because I have almost survived 55 years here on this 3rd rock from the sun. There are many distractions in life that can keep us from recognizing the things that we should hold close to our hearts. But here is a reminder of how important the little things can be. What a blessing to know that I am a child of God and that He loves me! My name is Helen, I’m almost 55 and I’m a Mormon!
Mini Mania has finally struck again!
