3rd Annual Cricut Cookie & Candy Recipe Swap

Here is a sneak peek at my recipe card for JeanP's third annual Cookie & Candy recipe swap on the Cricut message board:
My cookie this year is a Butter Ball Chiffon, they are made with instant lemon pudding and there are no eggs in the recipe.

My Life is a Blessing!

The past year has been difficult for me and my family to say the least.  A very special part of our family was away from us for awhile, and I have been dealing with a life changing medical problem.

During the past few weeks things have begun to turn around for the better!  My beautiful niece has been coming home for weekend visits. It's been such a pleasure to have her home with us again, I can't wait until she returns to us for good!  My neurologist has increased my medication, the improvement has been a godsend!  I may never be my "old" self again, but I'm learning to except the limitations of my "new" self.

I am so very grateful for the love and support of my family and friends, for without them daily life would be so much more difficult.

Remember, each and everyday day is a blessing. Good or bad, it doesn't matter. Enjoy the smile on a little child's face, the sound of their big feet running across the floor, or the picture they drew for you that day.  

There are so many blessings to be found all around us, all you have to do is look!

A Perfect Morning

This morning was so beautiful, it was perfect for a morning walk.  The sun shone brightly, the sky was full of big puffy clouds, a crisp fall breeze kissed my cheeks as a made my way through town.  I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day for a walk.  The only thing missing was my camera.  I must remember to carry it tomorrow. The colors of the leaves are gorgeous!

Thank you God for another beautiful day!
