Pink Saturday ...Baked Pretties

tiered cupcake from Martha Stewart Weddings

ruffled cake from Southern Flourish

This amazing cake tower is by Will Cotton.
How many calories do you think are in this baby?

I feel confident that I could copy the first two images, but that third one is a doozey. I stare at it in awe! For more Saturday pinkness, drop in at How Sweet the Sound for dozens of other participants' offerings.

Well Hey, Pumpkin!

full of charm!
sooo clever!
soo fun!

All of these delightful pumpkin ideas are from Country Living Magazine. Aren't they just great?!!

Coming Back.....

I am soooo very sorry for being MIA for so very long. I have missed the encouraging comments, blog parties, emails and most of all visiting with you to see what you have been up to each day. Near the end of April, the hard drive in my new (from Christmas) laptop crashed. After several people tried in vain to at least retrieve all my lovely saved images, I finally had to ship my baby halfway across the United States of America and wait and wait and wait for it to come back home. Meanwhile, I was having a whole slew of tests done to try to figure out why my liver enzyme count has remained terribly high even after having my gall bladder removed a year ago. Instead of being around 60, mine is still 372. I think they have finally decided that I'm just not normal. HA!...  so sad that we've had to dish out soooo much money to make that official! Pleeeease accept my apologies for all the unanswered emails (half of a kajillion), thanking new followers that signed on and a few online commitments that got dropped by the wayside. I can hardly wait to get caught up on taking pictures and making new posts of a few projects that I actually was able to tackle while I didn't have a computer. hmmmmmm...I'm betting there's a lesson there somewhere..... AND I am the most excited about getting back out into BlogLand to see what you're up to these days. Y'all are so very inspiring to me! My cleaned out laptop is back I'm ready to get back to business as usual......... 
xoxo,
