With Much Love and Thanks

-

There comes a time when a girl has just gotta sit back, take some deep breaths, and go with the flow. Let it be (as the great Beatles would say). And just . . . . live.

With all of your help, I am doing just that. And you know what . . . I feel really good tonight. After a night of UNINTERRUPTED SLEEP (it's amazing how much better I feel when I have sleep), I woke up a little clearer and feeling like I can tackle pretty much anything. I guess writing last night helped me put everything into perspective. So, tonight, I feel good.

So, time to send a little LOVE out to all of you - my dear Blog friends. You have picked me up when I was down, laughed with me, cried with me, and just meant more to me this year than you will ever realize. I might not take the time to write anymore this week (as you know from last night . . . there is lots to do! For YOU, too, I'm sure!)

So, I wish you all the VERY BEST CHRISTMAS with your family and loved ones. I wish you moments of pure love and joy, complete laughter and fun, yummy treats and stories of happy times with those who matter the most. And I thank you for all you have done for me this year. I'll be back next week . . . .with lots of stories about the Holiday, I am sure.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, Dear Friends! And God Bless!

My Dream Home Smash Book

Have you ever heard of a Smash Book? If you are a scrapbooker or art journal person, you may have. If you are not one of those types, you may not have. I am a scrapbooker . . . but had no idea what a Smash Book was. That is, until my dear friend Peggy brought hers to our Scrapbook Cellar gathering last month. She introduced us all to her cool little composition journal, and the conversation went something like this: PK :  Here is my Smash book. Me : Your what? PK : My Smash Book. Me : Like, smash, what? PK : Smash . . . things. You know. Like, stuff. Me : What? PK : See . . . I will put stuff in here. Junk. Things I don't want to lose, but don't know what to do with. Me : Huh? PK : Smash. Me : I don't get it. PK : Google it. CE (our friend, Cindi, who just entered the conversation and saw was PK was holding): Oh, a Smash Book! Cool! Me : Huh? CE : Google it. LT (my sister, Laura, who is right there with me): I don't get it. So, I googled it.

Any Day Now . . .

Any day now . . . Any day now . . . we will see you in all your glory, and the memory of past Springs will become our reality once again.  Any day now . . . I will walk passed you and be reminded of that scene in "Willie Wonka" . . . Gene Wilder as "Willie Wonka" image obtained from Google Image Search. Original site unknown. . . . when Gene Wilder drinks something (that I like to imagine is the sweetest, butteriest, most amazing thing) from a buttercup, and I'll wish just once I could do the same with you. Any day now . . . I will turn the corner of our block and find you waiting for me with your petals wide open, as if wanting to give me a Spring hug, and your scent will make me feel as if the heavens have opened up and sprinkled sweet smells over us all. Any day now . . . can't come soon enough.

Howdy Friends!!! Hope this post finds you all doing well! As part of my blog series "100 Things to Do with Grapes"  (STOP - wait a minute .... are you kidding me??? I don't have a blog series about grapes!!! Oh - but just imagine if I did!!!), I just had to share with you one of my very all time favorite summer treats . . .  Ok, are you even slightly interested? Hang in there with me, ok? Because this easy, summer "yum" is bound to be a favorite of YOURS!!!! That is . . . unless you have a peanut allergy. If you have a peanut allergy, I would STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST making this treat. (Come back Monday for another more appropriate post for you.) If you DON'T have peanut allergy . . . run to the store RIGHT NOW and pick up these three things . . . Seriously . . . it only takes these three things; green grapes, lightly salted dry roasted peanuts, and a bag of white chips. Seriously . . . that is all! So, how do you make these awesome snackies? Fir
