I am a stamp!

My husband designed me a logo to have on my projects I make.  I had this lady make me some stickers with Alison's Kitchen and Crafts on them with little cupcakes. After a while they will be costly. I was sitting at his parents house Christmas Eve and he was acting like a small child wanting to open presents, and he wanted me to open this one gift first.  He is the worst at waiting till Christmas to give me my gifts. He really spoiled my Christmas gift last year, he bought me a pink Acer netbook and he just had to let me have it 2 weeks before Christmas. I was so upset with him, I made him wrap it ad put it under the tree. 

So finall we open gifts and I unwrap two stamps and when I look at them I realize they have my name on them.  It was so sweet, I love them and can't believe he was creative enough to think of it.  So here they are. Note: the last pic is the round stickers I got.

Turning 30

Well, we will see how this goes!

My Aunt Debra told me about this blogg she loved to read http://thepioneerwoman.com/ . She used to have blogg, but now it is website.  I looked at it a few times, but not one I read everyday till about 5 or 6 months ago.  She has a cookbook now that has so many stories and great pictures.  I like that she cooks real food, not the recipes that have 200 ingredients and 6 hours to make.

I plan to cook thru her cookbook at least in a year, maybe shorter, the cookbook is not that big. I will be blogging about it everyday. I do need a few things that I don't have like a dutchoven, and a bigger cast iron skillet. I am sure there will be a few things she used that I don't care for like clam sauce or wine, wine to me is so gross. I will at least try everything once.  If you know anyone that like to cook like me this is the perfect gift. Make sure though, I was going to buy it for someones birthday and found out it is not their idea of a good gift. lol.

The first recipe is BBQ Jalapeno Poppers it calls for 6 ingredients. YES!

Wish me luck. Also, I will be doing a givaway of her cookbook soon, so stay tuned!!! Happy Blogging Everyone!!!

Something I always wanted!

This has been a very busy few weeks. I had a wonderful Christmas. I was blessed to recieve a great gift the day before my birthday this year, with all the baking and cooking I like to do, I have put this item to good use. What is you say? A Kitchen Aid mixer!!!!!!!!!!!! I am in love!

Christmas Party Invites!

The Lee house holds a Christmas Party every year. Each person brings a new wrapped ornament and we each draw a number and we basically fight over the ornaments one at a time.  I made the invites this year to look like a ornament.  I used patterned paper from Stampin Up.

Chrstmas Cards!!!!!

I have been so laxed in blogging lately, I broke my netbook screen, My hubby got a new laptop so here I am.  I used several colors for my Christmas Cards this year, my Aunt Debra made a card several years ago I saw it on my last visit and I just could not get the design out of my head, so with her permission and help I think I did a good job. Materials used were, Stampin up paper in Choc Chip, Real Red, Old Olive. The ribbon is Real Red also from Stampin Up! The snowflake was cut out with my Cricut and Sure Cuts A Lot.

Happy Halloween!

I hope everyone had a great Halloween! We had a good time despite the rain. Here are some pic's from the night. We host a Halloween party for all the friends and family that come to trick or treat in the neighborhood. I made Candy Corn bags that had popcorn and M&M's, (candy and corn). I also made them just very simple treat bags. I saw a similar candy corn candy holder on Clear Dollar Stamps blog.
