C'est la vie - Part deux

-
First and foremost, a great big HUGE thank you for the kind and thoughtful messages from many of you dear blog friends. I can't tell you how much your supportive words meant.

Yesterday was a rough day. Actually, the past few months have been rough.

According to my dear blog friend, Bossy Betty, I have been given "permission to sulk and get a little freaked out for two days" at which time I am advised to "look ahead at all that wonderful possibilities that await!"

Thank you, Betty. (Gees, I love that Bossy Betty, don't you? She is really the best.)

So, I'm doing just that . . . . giving myself two days. And then, I'm moving on.

Because I know that this is all for the best. And I know that I am blessed beyond words with this life of mine. I know that this is the beginning of something amazing. And I know that you are there with me . . . so, I'll be back in a day with some more positive thoughts.

Here's one to tide you over until my return . . .  

Peace, dear friend. Peace.

    Oh boy I am annoyed right now. I just wrote a really long heartfelt comment to you my dear friend and somehow it disappeared. Well, I want to say that I know this is a really hard thing for you right now. You are a strong, creative woman filled with love, compassion, dreams, and all that is good. You will be fine and God has a plan for you. Take this time to do something for yourself and to do some things you have been wanting to do, but could not. Start with making a bubble bath, playing some classical music and lighting a candle, or two or three. Take some time your yourself - you deserve it! My heart goes out to you at this time, but I know you will head onto a new road that will bring you much joy and satisfaction. You will be a success in whatever you do!

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
