Well what a great way to start my time at Mo's, I am so excited. I think Tracy our wonderful host must have known that I love sweet things. I am in withdrawal at present though as I am trying to lose those unwanted pounds which I guess will all go back on at Christmas, and no doubt a few extra ones to boot. You could just say I am making room for the inevitable to happen.
Are you ready to join in a super sweet feast at Mo's We look forward to seeing your gorgeous yummy creations. DP2 Challenge Something sweet/good to eat
I chose "Whats Cookin" and what a sweetie she is, you can find her here along with some great new images.This is what I came up with for this challenge..
I hoped it wasn't overdone, but had great fun making it.
Please call and see what the teamies have created for you, and leave them some love if you have a little time to spare.
We had planned on taking my sister out for the day, It would have been her Ruby wedding anniversary today and I know she will be feeling sad...she will expect that I had forgotten.
I told her I would take her to the shops for a few things she needs. Actually we had a lovely surprise day planned instead, and a bouquet of flowers for her.....Well she phoned last night and pulled out as she had someone coming that she really didn't want to cancel, she said"her shopping could wait.
oh! well the best laid plans and all that!! Why are surprises so hard to carry out...grrr!!!!
Catch you later xxxx
Fabulous papers and image Ginny x
