Hey there Blog buds!!! I decided to do a little baking today and I love the recipes I get from all of you on line..some are better then others..and this one is a tasty one..I got this recipe from Carmen of waxed out creative life for a stamping club thing I am going to tonight..of course I had to sample them (I only took the smallest ones) and they are super easy and good...Stop by and wish Carmen the best as she is going into surgery on Monday to get her back straightened out and the doctor said she would be pain free..:) so please keep her in your prayers..
Well look what came in the mail today..I ordered these wonderful candle tarts from Early Homestead Primitives and when Tucky and I got back from our walk I found these in the mailbox...the box smelled really good too..she threw in another sample one it is apple something clove...
I just had to try out the sweet potato pie one..and how appropriate in my star candle warmer...I can't wait for it to melt..
I put the rest of them in a little colander on the counter..they look so cute displayed in there and I can smell em as I walk by...
This also came in the mail today...do you all get this catalog? I love it and it always gives me inspiration and lots of ideas..course my favorite is their "fall" one..I also have my new country sampler I have had for a couple of weeks that I need to look through...I have been going through my magazines like crazy cause I have about 7 subscriptions that I get and have about 5 months each to look through...so at night on the couch..I multi task and read and watch t.v....lol..Well I am off to get my makeup on and then get dinner going so I can shovel it down before my ride gets here..we are having chinese chicken salad..I have had this yummy recipe for 20 years...and it is soooooo good..I hope you all have a wonderful weekend..:)

  4. I have those heart palpitations things too. I tried to explain it to my doctor and he looked at me like I had 2 heads. I told him I thought it felt like butterflies in my throat. I guess I am crazy.
