I think the smoke has cleared....

It feels like my best stories always begin with...I tried to cook...LOL!

I made toast today and there were actual flames. I have the bread perfectly buttered and garlic-ed and in the toaster oven when the phone rang. When I went to pull the toast out it fell off the back of the tray and hit the heating element. Then it caught on fire. Being the calm person that I am....I panicked! LOL!

I dropped the phone and tried to reach in and get my toast before it was....well, toast and burned myself. I tried blowing on the flames to make the fire go out and that didn't work. I closed the door, unplugged the oven and stood there waiting for the flames to die while thinking about how much I really wanted that toast. LOL!

Well, I never did get to eat my toast but the house didn't burn down either so it's OK. I've got a cute little red mark I can show people while bragging about my cooking skills. It's a good thing the cute guy who thought I could bake wasn't around today. LOL!

Now, is this a good time to remind you of April's recipe card exchange? LOL!



I also wanted to show you another layout I made with the Love Story kit by Carol's Digiscrap Creations. The wordart on this LO is part of the kit.



The kit is on sale at Cool Scraps Digital! Make sure you check it out.

Tomorrow morning I have an appointment at the DMV to renew my license. They only let you renew online so many times then you have to go in for a new picture. This is my year for a new picture. YUCK!

The good news is that after I get my new license I'm leaving for Key West. YIPPEE! I'll be back on Sunday so I've pre-posted some wordart for you while I'm gone. Hopefully you'll find something you can use.

I'm going to get some sleep so I'll look pretty in my new license picture. LOL! Enjoy your day and look for me at digifree!

Feeding my addiction!


Download wordart here

Have you ever been hooked on something so badly that you just couldn't get enough? Well, I'm like that with chocolate and scrapping. LOL! I feed my chocolate addiction by buying lots and lots of chocolate and I feed my scrapping addiction by joining CTs.

I am so happy to say that I have a whole bag of Dove chocolate and I've joined a new CT. As of today I get to work with the great kits by Scraps of Ellay. She sells her awesome kits at Stuff to Scrap and sometimes you can find freebies on her blog.

I have loved all of Ellay's kits for so long that I am honored to have the chance to work with her kits. You should see how wide my smile is now! LOL!

The first kit I worked with was one that has been on my wish list for a while now. It's called Fayries and is just beautiful! Take a look at this preview...



Don't you just love it?!?! Making a couple of layouts with this kit was easy because I knew right away which pictures I wanted to use. First I worked with the blue papers...



If you would like the wordart I used on this LO you can download it here

Then I just had to use the pretty purple paper...

Make sure you check Ellay's Stuff to Scrap store on Monday for a new kit!

Now, I've got to get some sleep. Enjoy your day and look for me at digifree!
