I thought I'd give faux pastries a try. Threw in a couple of roses and voilà, my 2nd attempt! You really don't want to see the 1st attempt! LOL

All about me!
- Connie
- Idaho, United States
- I really wanted to be beautiful and sexy but got stuck with being humorous and shapely instead. My dream job is Tech Writer. Yes, I said Tech Writer. I am a techie! Such is life. But I am truly a blessed chick. I left the corporate world of California in 1991 to live a more serene lifestyle and haven't regretted it for one moment. I have been married to the same man since 1961. We have 2 children, 4 grandchildren, and 3 great-granddaughters. I live my life in exclamation points!
My Thoughts on My Blog.
I love blogging and sharing thoughts on life, my life, ramblings and gorgeous photos. There are no politics on this blog. I speak of my religion sometimes but that's it for religion, and there will never be ads on here. I want this blog to be a serene and celestial place for you, my readers, to enjoy and rest from the frantic pace of the world. I hope you do so with all my heart. I also have a huge amount of eye candy on here. I'm rarely boring.

Connie's Musings
- I am definitely a lover of pink and girly things. I sometimes throw in random thoughts and a few humorous thoughts to make life interesting. I am a humorous, witty and funny chick. It runs in our family.
Connie,
ReplyDeleteThank you soooo much for the sweet comments on my blog. And i love the ribbon rose idea for the tacks, I will try it. I just didn't want plain ugly white or gold tacks up there, so out came the pink paint : ) Your cake turned out beautiful!!! And I looked through your home pictures, soooo cute. Can't wait to read through all your blog, I will be back : ) Oh by the way, what is the tissue trick you mention for pictures?
Hugs,
Kathy
