Revisting New Year Resolurtions.

At the start of 2014 as in all fresh starts of the new year...I rededicated myself to healthier living. Of course after the first few months the unhealthy (decadent) culprits gradually found their way back into my dietary line up. But, I've found it only took a small adjustment to one of my favorite desserts to keep me on task. I thought I'd share my latest revised low carb recipe for...

Brownies topped with chocolate mousse

and fresh berries!

Baked~ sugar free brownies,
(I prefer an organic sugar free box mix but Pillsbury's is great in a pinch!)

Chocolate mousse~
(organic) sugar free pudding or Jell-O instant sugar free chocolate pudding mix. Prepare with equal parts of heavy whipping cream to milk. Beat till fluffy peaks form.

( If the mousse seems too thick add extra milk to the mixture until it becomes smoother in consistency)

Top with fresh berries.
This dessert will satisfy any sweet tooth.
Enjoy!

Falling into Fall........

October has brought a definite chill to the air, putting me in a decorating mood. As you've come to know from visiting my blog, I love exploring new ideas for taking the ordinary and making it extraordinary. Which I accomplish through the inspiration provided by visiting your lovely blogs. Nothing says "FALL" like these... PUMPKINS! The versatility of pumpkins in any fall decor is endless. I've only got one problem... sometimes the pumpkins can start to look a little sad before the seasons end. (Natalie Maynor's photo) Violet Skiles has the perfect solution! Pumpkin Toppers Flowers, leaves, pearls, frame charm .....what more could you ask for? Reusable, perhaps? Yes they are! Violet has a beautifully illustrated tutorial at her blog for creating your own Pumpkin Topper . Please stroll on over for a visit.

She knows we have to say goodbye....

Angel laid on my chest and filled my face with kitty kisses. Trying to give me enough of them to ease my pain and hopefully carry me through in her absence. Our time is fleeting. How I wished I could turn back the clock. When I look at her I can't convey to her the the love I have, or how great this loss is to me. Especially how I'll miss her everyday. Angel always loved blogging, more so putting in her opinion. She has been my constant companion through my darkest hours and has brought my greatest delights for 16 years. As my dear friend said to me..."they're the ones we whisper our greatest fears to." "We have a big favor to ask of you." My circle of family and friends is very tiny here, so finding solace can be distant. This is where I'm reaching out to you. I know you understand with all your heart what these furry companions mean to us. I would like to compile a scrapbook with all your comments. Whether your a pet owner or just a lover...

Yes Virginia, Christmas has come early!

It's finally happened! My camera has closed it's shutter for the last time. No need for tears... CAUSE I'M JUMPIN' FOR JOY! "Get your boots on Virginia, were goin' camera shopin'." Although my camera isn't as old as the one pictured here...it certainly felt like it at times, especially without a macro option (that word has become music to my ears). It's quite possible I've paid the equivalent of two new cameras with all the batteries purchased over the course of time. For any of you that have stock in Duracell batteries..."you're welcome." If I were to leave the selection of my new camera up to my family... I've no doubt this is what they'd pick out. "Holy macro " just think what I could capture in a single shot... Wow, that would be one hard flash dot to shake from your retinas. I'd be the envy of every paparazzi in Hollywood. Due to the demise of my camera... I wasn't able to bring you all my ...
