I'm dreaming of you tonight

Dreaming. Of winning the lottery. Gonna start playing. Should really go buy a ticket. Today. *wink*

This is on my list. My "when I win the lottery" list. Of course I would love it in Ice or pink but a smart designer once said "keep your appliances simple. Trends come and go faster than appliances break." Oh how I want the ice tho. IT would really SUCK to get ice and then a few years down the line my kitchen colors change and I am stuck with a $300 appliance that is just the wrong dang color. Yeah I will stick with white. It IS the smart thing to do. Hehehe!

I have been dreaming. Of my own business. You know the cupcake/scrapbook store. Or maybe the scrapbook/cupcake store. I have a name. Glitter & Sprinkles. Maybe Sprinkles & Glitter. Not sure what one sounds better yet. Need funds. That's where the lottery comes in. Hehehe! I even have a place picked out. It is for lease. Beautiful brick. Old. Just awesome.

One of the cupcakes I would sell is this one.

Frosted with creme cheese frosting (homemade all from scratch). I brought it to the easter potluck sunday. Everyone seemed to love them. I am going to make another batch to thank the girls at "work" for all their help. Oh the ease of making it with that lovely Kitchen Aid up there. Need one. *wink*

Next on my cupcake list is Boston Creme Pie cupcakes. I am making those for my mommy for Mother's day. I am super excited about those. They look so delish. They honestly are more like mini boston creme pies but hey we can call them cupcakes.

I really need to think of something FAB to buy and make my mom. I should be thinking of these things a lot sooner. At least I have no work right now. I have other things to do too. Like play with this box of goodies from GCD. 35lbs of lovelyness!
Isnt it lovely?!? Oh the beautifulness that is in that huge box. Assignments have been assigned. Need to get on that.

This week is super busy. Filled with lovely things. I am finished with extern so I need to go take care of that with school. My cousin is coming over tmw to scrap with me! Yay!!! I miss our little get togethers. Need to get this house in order today. Then Friday I am meeting with Jennifer Tucker, CP, Lisa Rainbow pants, Tricia, and Vernoica for a fun filled day of...well fun of course! They are all meeting up here and we are gonna paint the town pink and mint green. Hehehe! I cant wait!

We had a lovely easter. I have so many lovely pics to scrap now. A few of my favorties.

~Crystal, Tiffany, Me, Janna, Nicole~
Cousins

~Raven and Hubs~
Just a few. The rest are on FB. We had such a good time.

Hubby and I are going to go to the movies tonight! 5.00 tuesday. My fav day.

So off I go. Things need to be started. Prepared. Done.

You played it to the beat

I made my nutella cupcakes last weekend.


OMG they were sooo yummy! Definately making these again. Next on my cupcake list...Oreo cupcakes.

Last day of extern...I am scared, happy, sad, excited. So many things going on in my head. I wish I could stay home and create. I wish I could find a good job so I dont have to worry about where the money is going to come from to pay this or that bill. I wish I could open up my own scrap/cupcake store and call it Glitter and Sprinkles. Didnt I tell you so many things going on in my head? *sigh* I need to win the lottery. I guess maybe I should start playing then huh? Bawahaha!

This past week many things came and went. One most important thing was my 18 year anniversary with my hubby. No we havent been married for 18 years but we might as well been. We have been together for 18 years and to me that is just as awesome. Not many people last that long these days. I know we will be celebrating 50 years in the future. Hopefully tho that one doesnt come as fast as the 18 did!

My hubby goes out of his way to make special days even more special. He cooked me dinner (lasagana), had it waiting for me when I got home. Bought me 12 long stem red roses, monkey pj's and slippers, a super sah-weet ring (just my style), and a jumbo reese easter egg. Hehehe! Yeah he is freakin awesome, I know. I think I love him. *wink*

On the crafty front I have one more page made with the AMM April kit.


I also forgot to share my little easter wreath I made for my front door. Everything bought at dollar tree.

I was thinking some plastic eggs covered in music sheets added to it would be fab. Maybe next year. Not much time left!

I should be getting my DT box from GCD stuidos tmw! Soooo excited!

Time to get ready for our easter. What are your plans?

And I wont get lost in your world


I have some super sweet scrappy news to share (say that 5 times fast).

Thaz right.

There is a new challenge up why not go check it out? This is my take on it using the new Echo park For the Record line.


I would say I love to a fault...I have a very tender heart. Sometimes I wish it was a little harder. I need a hard candy coating for it. :)

Last day of March and man did it come and go quickly. April fools day is tmw...Oh yeah that's right it is ha! I have NOTHING planned for it. I don't usually. My husband is the one who tries to trick us. He has had a few good ones too. One day I will get him back...One day.

Aria's birthday was Saturday.
I made these delicious Lemon Meringue cupcakes. OMG so good! Everyone loved them.



She is my star. She was playing Karaoke revolution here singing her little heart out even tho it wasn't her turn. She had a lovely time.

In other news I am sick. Was sick yesterday and couldn't crawl out of bed this morning. I called in sick to "work". I HATE doing that. I debated with myself for a good 30 mins and when I tried to get up and get ready my body just wasn't having it. I knew I would be miserable so I sucked it up and called in. I always feel the next day when you come back people are mad or thinking things...Yeah I know. Nerd.

I sat on this couch from 8am till about 7pm. Totally vegged. I started feeling a bit better and decided I really need to get SOMETHING done. I mean I couldn't even enjoy the day really. That totally sucked. I did however clean a bit of my mess up and organized some scrap-disaster. This is where I ended up.

Next post I will share my Flea Market finds from last weekend. YAY!
