Cookies

I'm wrapped up in the selling of our home and dreaming of new abodes.

There are so many distractions, but I got some friendly advice from a wonderful blogging friend, so I'm sitting down to write about the chaos and the freshly baked goodness that's coming of it all!

I love this book, "Cookies: Bite-Size Life Lessons" by Amy Krouse Rosenthal. It has wonderful little lessons for children; it's also a good reminder for adults.

So I decided to bake up some goodness and think of other people. There is a homeless shelter in my town. My church group just had a "Princess Party" fund raiser to raise money for the women and children's portion. pve design created some beautiful princess illustrations for the event, which I put on hanging plaques as a gift to each little princess. Patricia from pve decided to donate her commission to the shelter. This woman keeps giving! I thought it would be nice to deliver the money and include some cookies and one of her illustrations attached to a plaque.

Here's the plaque hanging on one of pve's other designs. I love her work!!!
Deliveries to those in need help us reach outside of ourselves. My children helped me with the delivery.

I hope to make more regular entries. I'd like to do a give-away highlighting my friends' work on Etsy, The Cloverfield. Beautiful handmade jewelry! Look for this next week...

Until then, hope for the best, and remember to find joy in the raindrops of March!
