I'm on a roll!

Ok, I'm turning into an aceo geek. Added this little embroidered number to the shop, too!

What I love is that they are small enough that I can finish an idea while little Miss Lovely takes a nap. Have I mentioned that she rarely naps longer than 45 minutes? Often only once a day?

We're heading back to the land of beer to visit family... fingers crossed we get to go here! But I adore this place too... there were many, many lingering breakfasts & dinners there when we were dating...

4 shots

I cried again. When they gave Miss Lovely her shots. I am one of those mothers.

- sigh -

And it has been a rough day since then for the poor girl. I wish she were old enough that I could cheer her up / distract her with a treat- all I can do is hold her gingerly, trying to keep her sweet chubby thighs from touching *anything*... I quickly discovered that she shrieks when touched between the bellybutton & knees. Convenient, no?

Via Modamuse, this one girl was a good distraction for me...

And long story short, I am suddenly throwing together a Red & Pink dinner for a church I'm helping to start here. No pastor. No building. Nada. We rent space at a local daycare- this is very curious for a person who has always gone to established churches.... at any rate, red will be spaghetti, pink will be pink lemonade, and I have suggested a Pink Potluck for dessert. How freaking cute is that? I am, of course, obsessing about what my pink dessert will be. I'm thinking of winging it with something completely invented.... jello cupcakes.

Miss Lovely is awake again- signing off -
