Hello y’all ;).  I’m on vacation and feeling guilty that I haven’t posted in some time.  We had vacations plans … things had to be changed … left five days earlier than planned.  My kitchen counter was left covered with half-finished projects and supplies for more projects.  Please accept my apology for my absence … things will be changing!

I’ve been in Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky and Indiana visiting family and sightseeing.  A few days ago we stayed with extended family in Rutledge, Tennessee and met Bessie …

she says “Hello y’all” 🙂   Bessie and the rest of the herd are the neighbors of Jim and Christine … nice neighbors!

I just wanted to check in with everybody and say that I’ll be posting soon!

I ♥ your comments!

This year I entered my Nacho Cupcakes in the Celebrations Cupcake Crown!

Once again I would love for you to vote for my cupcake … however this year you must sign in thru Facebook.  Just click on the pink cupcake (in the upper right corner of this page) and you will be taken to my cupcake 🙂

You may vote once per day until February 13!

I highly recommend visiting Celebrations for many cupcake decorating ideas and recipes.

So please, please, please vote for me 😉

I’ll be posting something new very soon 🙂

I just want to take this opportunity to say Happy New Year and thank you to everyone!  The comments that you leave are so kind and helpful … I am very thankful for each and every one of you 🙂

The new year holds new ideas … but here is a quick review of a few old ones …

Do you remember these clocks and top hats from last year?   They were so easy to make … I may whip a few up today.

Nacho cupcakes were the most popular post of 2012 … a great option for football game viewing 😉

Peanut Butter Cup Christmas Trees … what can I say, except that they were yummy and quite possibly the easiest thing ever 🙂

If you are out and about shopping all the after Christmas sales, pick up a bag of Christmas (green & red) M&M’s.  I have a Valentine’s Day idea that will require green M&M’s 😉

We will talk again next year!!!  Have a safe and Happy New Year 🙂
