goody-goody

Yup. Still here.

I knew it would happen.

I've been away from blogging so long that Typepad up and changed everything. This is what transpires while I'm away thrifting, logging mommy time and baking cupcakes. (And eating cupcakes.) Okay, so I just give it a push, swing my leg over and start pedaling, right?  Here goes.

A repeated thank-you to those who are coming by via other websites and magazines. I promise I'm not usually this lame.

A sneak peek at some dishes I bought the other day at Goodwill. After 12 years of marriage, I finally gave myself permission to replace the clunky ones I registered for.  No offense, Pfaltzgraff "Ocean Breeze". It's not you. It's me. I've changed. And you wouldn't break. I tried...many times.

They seem happy and sunny, no? 

Happy Fall! Let the candy corn gorging begin.
 

And away we go! (or went)

 

Hi there. Hope you all had a fabulous and fun Fourth. We had a great first two days before the stomach flu hit. It's all over and done, thank goodness. I don't have a great transition from that to food-related items, so I apologize. But these were my cupcakes for the party all nestled in their seats ready to go. I love this cupcake carrier. I really do. I spend a lot of time trying to find a space to store it, but when I need it, it's wonderful to have. Especially for school birthdays and other happenings.  I got mine at LNT but they don't have it anymore..no worries, I found them at HSN. They're a bit pricier there, but trust me, you walk into a room carrying that sucker, people will give you some serious props. In that moment, you will feel like Martha. If Martha were to be a ball of sweat and drive a car with two bickering children that goes dead in temps over 100. Wait, that's just me.

I have a few new little bags trickling into the shop soon. Thanks for stopping by. I'm hoping to pull together a little tut for Friday--I know, it's been ages since I've had a quickie! Smirk.
