We have a winner and a recap.


 

October and Halloween came and went...


 along with 90 trick-or-treaters.


 

November and Thanksgiving promptly followed with our family gathering from near and far.




Some more anxious  than others to get at the Thanksgiving dinner.



After days and nights of preparations, decorating, cleaning, cooking.
And eating until I was as stuffed as a turkey.




It prompted a much insisted needed rest,




by A-L-L!
My furry friend did remind me there was a winner to announce.
So, with no further ado!

 The Quintessential Magpie.

CONGRATULATIONS!!

You've won the Cupcake Ferris Wheel 

 & the cupcake embellishments!


To make up for Novembers misplaced Giveaway,
 I will be announcing Decembers followed with
**two** winners

Sara!!! I'm baaaaaaaaack!

I was so excited that I watched the rest of the interview on YouTube and told Mr. M he would have to wait! He was excited, too, so he didn't mind.

I cannot believe all the fabulous goodies in this giveaway. I am going to have the cutest cupcakes on earth!

Something I didn't share with you which I will now, is that my grandmother made the world's best cupcakes. When I was a little girl, that was my favorite thing in the world. Still is. And now I can do this and serve them in the cutest style! So now, whenever I think of cupcakes, I will think not only of Granny, but of you. This is just the best giveaway ever! And I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Off to go email you now. I had to get a new address because someone tried to tamper with the old one.

Oh, the places I will go on that ferris wheel with the cookbook and cute cupcakes in tow!!!

XO,

Sheila

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's just as charming as her art! **************************************************** T...

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 ...
