National Cancer Awareness Month

Free Breast Cancer Ribbon Download

February is National Cancer Awareness Month and to help you show your awareness I have a Cancer Ribbon Free Download of 4 ribbons.

Saturday, February 4th, World Cancer Day.

So many of us have been affected by cancer and being aware and supportive of our friends and family affected with cancer is what we can do for them. Cancer is one of the most difficult things anyone has to face. It leaves me without words and makes my heart sink whenever I hear of another friend struggling with it. But Hope is what we have and we can't let go of hope.

Hope is that thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the
tune without the words and never stops... at all.  -Emily Dickinson

I hope that you can use these ribbons to show your awareness.

Two favorite foods celebrated two days in a row!! How fun is that?

Today It's National Croissant Day!

Now are we not only flooded with Hallmark Holidays, but we've got all these foodie ones too and I think these are loads more fun! Even if they are loads of calories more fun!

They even have croissants for doggies! How fun!

Personally, I prefer a simple butter croissant myself. No filling or anything. Just warm it up and I'm good!

And let's not forget one of my most favorite recipes ever is what Kelly calls Star Taco!

I use a round baking stone and arrange the unrolled croissants in the shape of a star.

Place scoops of cooked ground beef mixed with taco seasoning. Sprinkle with cheese.
Fold over the triangles and bake [following the instructions from the croissant package]!

Mmmm Mmmm Good!

Multi-Photo Photobook

It's here!

My finished year in review book arrived safely to our home and has taken its place on my bookshelf of memories.

There's been a lot of talk over at DesignerDigitals about photobooks and all the headaches caused by Shutterfly. It's no secret that we had been partnered with them. Until they dropped digital scrapbookers and the format we had all become accustomed to without warning. But, old habits die hard and I am having a heck of a time trying a new company. I like to go with what I know and I've been a customer at Shutterfly since 1999. So, this book was done there using the classic custom path that, supposedly, will not be available for long. Hoping they change their mind about this.
