Better, much better

Img_4398














You know that feeling, that post-Thanksgiving feeling, when you realize you’ve probably had one too many pieces of turkey and you feel like you might just explode into a million little pieces? Well, that’s how I’m feeling, and not because I ate too many brownie cupcakes (I promise, I only ate 1!) It’s the love, people! I’m bursting at the seams. Really, you are too much!  THANK YOU!! It was like Niagara falls over here. And the e-mails! Don’t even get me started. Soo many sweet ones. You were so generous in your words and thoughts. I hope that anyone else dealing with the same type of thing will draw comfort from all your kind words.

So, have you been to Target lately?
I had not, but boy was I lucky when I went this past weekend. Have you seen these bowls? 2 for $2.50?? In the $1 section at the front of the store? They had lots of springy colors, and I am such a sucker for bowls. Bowls & cakestands. I have no self restraint. Who could resist these? Obviously I couldn’t.

I just wanted to share some goodness and thanks. Thank you! You are the best peeps a gal could ask for!

    I saw those bowls today, along with the egg cups, which were so hard to resist. If I hadn’t thought my husband would give me the “look” if I brought them home, they would be living here now! Cake stands make me swoon too. And those muffin cups you keep featuring! 😀 Where do you find such lovlies?

    I am glad things are a bit better. Love the bowls. I saw them at Target a few weeks ago, but don’t have any room for them so I will enjoy looking at yours.

    It turns out I’m addicted to Target again. I’d kicked the habit when my Target remodeled and seemed uninspiring, but lately they’ve really got me going again.
    And OMG the baked goods. Sigh.

    Curtis and I were really both so sorry to hear about the miscarriage(s). I can only imagine it’s a “royal bummer” in a category all its own. We send our best and hugs to all of you. (Well, you know Curtis…he may not send his HUGS, per se, but he sends his condolences in his own stiff-ish but sweet way.)
    On a better note, those bowls ARE cute. I’m a sucker for bowls and cake stands, too. A good T.J. Maxx (or HomeGoods or whatever they’re calling it) can make me giddy.

    I’m so sorry to hear about your miscarriage. I’m glad though that you are feeling better. Chocolate always seems to have magical powers to do that. 🙂 Those bowls at Target are sooo cute, I think I’ll have to go have a look. Thanks for your great blog!

    Sorry to hear about your sad news. I hope the chocolate cupcakes are making you feel a little better. They look absolutely yummy. Where or where did you find the cupcake wrappers though? they are just too darling.

    OK “queen-of-the-cutest-cup-cake-liners!” where’s the recipe for these delish goodies?
    Target has those bowls? Seriously? Hmmm… this new budget has been keeping me away from main stream shopping. I must check that out.

    Tried your Baked Ziti last night. It was a hit with the family. I have made very similar recipes in the past, but yours was better! I still need to try those cookies.

    Okay. We think waaay too much alike for me not to de-lurk. I loved those bowls and wish I’d bought more! And d’oh! Of course you couldn’t read my mind if I didn’t get brave enough to say how sweet and inspiring you are…and how sorry I am for your miscarriages. Thank you for sharing yourself here – you’re a bright spot on my favorites list!
