I’ve been away for a bit. I had a great time helping my sister with a dessert bar for my brother-in-laws retirement party. We had such a good time seeing lots of friends and family. We are so blessed with wonderful people in our lives. I was so happy that the desserts were well received and we had a few reaming to bring home. The desserts I made were my mom’s recipe of Sweet Rice, German Chocolate Cupcakes, and White Cake Cupcakes with Vanilla Butter Cream Icing. I tried my hand at Lemon Bars which I have to say were delicious! My sister asked me to make a small cake that was Red Velvet with Cream Cheese Icing and it had a beach scene because that is what my brother-in-law dreams of doing.
My daughter, Karli, needed a card for another friend’s birthday. I am thankful for so many that share ideas online since you can get stuck needing so many soccer cards. I added an embossed background and a ball bouncing off the card. Kids anymore just want money so I made the card a money holder with a pocket on the inside.
I am getting ready to do classes through a recreation center, as well as, a senior living facility. I am happy to share what I love whether it is sharing sweet treats or the joy of making cards.
Here are a few pictures of what I have been up to lately.
