Blog Awards

I would like to thank Melissa from Disney Dreamer Designs for this BEAUTIFUL BLOGGER Award. Isn't this a pretty award??? Thank you Melissa!

As I understand the rules I am supposed to share seven things about myself and pass the blog award along to 15 other bloggers. WOW - that is a lot of bloggers.

My fiftieth birthday is in two weeks.
One of my favorite flowers is the Camellia - I have two Yuletide Camellias at my front door and it is like having roses in the dead of winter each time I open the front door. This is a Yuletide Camellia:
I collect tea sets. I would share a photo of my favorite set, but I cannot pick just one.
I try to decorate inside my home for every holiday. Okay, I skip a few, but I hit all of the biggies. Last spring my daughter brought a few friends from college for the weekend. She told me that one of them asked what was up with all of the rabbits in our house - rabbit tea sets (see #3), rabbit plates (see #7), rabbit figurines, rabbits in baskets, etc. She said she looked at the person and said "Duhh, Easter!" That's my girl!!!
I love to read. I devour books. I have two or three books that I liked so much that I have read them over and over because I hate to say goodbye to the characters.
I love Walt Disney World. I am like a big kid in a candy store when we visit. I wear the Minnie Mouse hat with ears of course and insist that we do the photo pass photos as frequently as possible.
I am a dish-oholic. I have to limit myself or I would have more dishes than I have storage space. Dishes are my naughty little indulgence.

I am supossed to pass this along to 15 beautiful bloggers.

I also need to thank Linda at Ladybug's Lair. Linda gave me this lovely award:

Thanks you so much Linda!!! This was so sweet of you. In that I have already passed this award on previously, I am not going to select specific blogs. I would like every reader with a blog to please feel free to post this award on your blog. (One of my seven items above should have been "I don't always play by the rules").

I will be back tomorrow with my BBTB project and the story of reorganizing the pantry.

Cookies for Cheryl

A few weeks ago, we had a little cookie giveaway here...and guess who won?!? Cheryl, my friend over at TidyMom!!!

Disclaimer: Cheryl & I have never actually met, but I do consider her a REAL friend. I'm working on getting her to pack her bags and head to Texas. She has that whole family thing going on in Missouri, but come on, Cheryl...they can come, too!

Before I made the cookies, a little birdie told me that it was almost Cheryl's birthday.

So, I tweeted Cheryl and very slyly asked her favorite colors.
{You had no idea what I was up to, right Cheryl? *wink, wink*}

I loved her answer....turquoise and red! Oh, how I loved working with these colors!

And, I tried something new! I've been seeing off-center graphic flowers everywhere lately...stationery, fabric, dishes...even one of my shirts. I wanted to try it on a cookie. I present to you....the modern daisy.
{Because I'm all about modern these days!} ;)

{I got a little distracted by my photo editing software "effects" here...}

Scoot on over to TidyMom (a blog I read EVERY day) and wish Cheryl a "Happy Birthday!!!"

Here is Cheryl's picture from when she got them today:
I am no longer happy with my point & shoot camera.

Happy Birthday, Cheryl!!!
