Fabric and Cupcakes


Over the weekend my daughter and I went to look for fabric for a purse I'm making her.  When we walked in the store she saw a bolt of fabric (floral yardage on top) and immediately fell in love.  She had picked a fabric from the "Hunky Dory" line which I have been wanting to use for awhile now.  The next thing I knew, we had picked out enough fabric for a quilt.  How is a mother to say "no" when a daughter asks if you'd make her a quilt?  We forgot all about the purse fabric.


I'm in the planning stages for a bridal shower I'm giving in June and have cupcakes on my mind.  I just came across this recipe for rose frosting where you actually use rose water.  Have any of you tried this?  I might be forced to make a practice batch of cupcakes, as horrible as that sounds.



I've been picking up platters for the shower when I see them.  I was out with Joyce and found these at Goodwill for under ten dollars a piece.  Aren't they pretty?


I will have to wait to share about all my shower plans since the beautiful bride, Chelsea, reads my blog.  I'll just give her a little to keep her intrigued.  Showers are so much fun!

Be joyfilled,
