Monday Morning Fuzzy Funny

No matter what is going on in my life, kittens falling asleep always makes me happy. Enjoy!

Cookbook Club!

Today, I had a lovely meeting with my Cookbook Club. Every month or so we choose a cookbook, try out the recipes on our own and then meet to discuss the book and share recipes that we've made. It's a great time to sit with friends and do one of my favorite things: eat good food.

This month's book was The Way We Cook by Julie Riven and Sheryl Julian. I didn't make too much from it this month, but after hearing the feedback from others and trying some of the dishes out, I will definitely make more recipes from it -- especially the Curry Deviled Eggs. So good!!

The Holidays are Coming

Wow! Christmastime seems to have arrived quite early this year, don't you think? With commercials, store displays and magazines reminding me of the the impending season of cheer, I have to start thinking of all the tasks I must complete. The first thing I need to do is decide what ornaments to make. For the past two years, I have participated in the Holiday Ornament Swap and plan to do it again (if I'm not too late!). Then, last year, I started a new tradition and made my holiday cards ornaments as well. I recently bought these cut-out mittens from Papersource to create my ornaments. Now, what should I do with them??

Project Runway!

I am so excited about tonight's Project Runway. It's part one of the finale and I can't wait. Yay!

Who Needs All this Glitter?

Apparently, I do (it is essential after all). Every time I go to Michael's, I see this 24-piece glitter set from Martha Stewart Crafts, pick it up and inevitably put it back because I have no idea what I would do with it. But, it's just so pretty and sparkly. I must be like a raccoon -- attracted to shiny things. Lucky for me, The Crafts Dept. is giving away a set. I think I'll try my luck.

Something to Celebrate!

I'm about to head out to celebrate the inaugural Mamma Jamma Ride Against Breast Cancer! Over 500 riders raised over $500,000 to support women in Central Texas who are living with breast cancer. Not bad for a first try, I must say.

It was a cold but great day to ride for this cause! Thanks to all of you who supported me. I truly appreciate it. Wanna join us? It's not too early to sign up for next year.
