Dearest Chris!!! What a FUN AND FABULOUS BAKING FRIDAY!!! You\'ve given me ideas for our PPMS Welcome Party this Sunday!!! Oh, and the girlz... OR let me correct myself: The YOUNG WOMYN are growing up SOOOOOOOOOOOO FAST!! And those dimples??? Just beautiful womyn and sweet as well! Thank you ALL SO MUCH for sharing your lovely ladies with me and everyone else!!! We are all better for the adventures you all share...
I had another exhausting day with too much running! Dumpy had to be at the vet at 7:45 a.m. for his ear problems... He has been having recurrent yeast infections in his ears so it\'s a puzzle we\'re trying to solve... He got some medicine again, but this time, putting it in his ears should be EASIER than the other stuff we had used. He\'ll go back for a follow-up at the end of the month...
Then it was bring him back, eat the breakfast I missed, and off to town with too too too many stops... I did get it all done and will be taking it easy this evening and tomorrow...
Love to you and Mom and Dad and the Lovely Ladies and everyone else in CT!!! Have a super evening!! Oh, and THANK YOU so much!!! I received the movie you sent today and will probably watch in tomorrow night... For now, I\'ve got to plan what I\'m making for my meeting on Sunday!

Hi Chris, Wow your cake, cupcakes & chocholates turned out awesome!! What a cute idea I am going to keep this in mind for when I\'m with my nieces it would be a fun baking idea!! I have a question for you. You said that you like to harvest the sunflower seeds & bake them. As I mentioned I am hoping to try and grow them for the first time this year. If they grow how do I harvest the seeds? How do you bake yours? Any information you could give me I would really appreciate!
It\'s still snowing here. We ended up with around 10inches of snow it would have been more but the first two hours we had sleet. It has not snowed this late in the season since 1983. That\'s ok though it won\'t be long and it will be hot and humid lol gotta live MN. I hope you have a great shopping trip at Wal-Mart tomorrow and have a wonderful weekend. Hopefully your weather will cooperate and you will be able to work in your gardens. Thank you for sharing the wonderful pictures from your baking Friday, I look forward to seeing you garden pictures. I hope this finds you and your family happy and well. Until next time take care and keep smiling :)
Love, Hugs & God Bless
Lisa
