Petal Pizzaz and Teeny Tiny Wishes

Hello! They had my road all tore up again today so I had to stay home all day. I think they are getting it ready to black top now. They worked on removing sand, measuring the distance down, and it looks like they built in back up some again. Perhaps they were leveling it and packing it down, I don't know. Hopefully this will all be over soon! I was pooped out today and really did not get anything accomplished during the day. Lady Di stopped over for a bit to visit and then Jessie came at 4 to work for me and she just left around 9 o'clock. The fabric room is done, at least for the moment. All the boxes have been unpacked and the current shelving is full. I plan on having Breezy put up shelves on the last section of open wall in there. Then we will move the fabric that is stored on shelves in the bathroom upstairs and then it will be completely finished. But it is so nice to see the wide open floor in there now. Jessie vacuumed it and there is a large open space in the center of the room that the kids can set up the queen size air mattress on, plus the other one could be set up on the floor in my sewing room. So that is great! We still have some boxes to sort in the little bedroom yet, but the end is getting near!!! That Jessie is such a hard worker and it has been wonderful to have her doing all this bending and lifting for me. This project would have NEVER gotten done with out her help! I made us a new recipe that I tried tonight with the elk/hamburger. We both thought it turned out really good. First you brown a pound of burger and drain it. Then you put it back in the pan and add a 1/2 of cup of BBQ Sauce. I used Tastefully Simple's Smokey Bacon Grilling Sauce. Next you add 4 T. Brown Sugar, and a T. of Dried Onion. Stir this mixture up. Take a can of refrigerator biscuits, flatten each into a 5" circle, then place it in a muffin pan so it comes up the side. Add 2 T. of the burger mixture to each biscuit, top with shredded cheese and bake at 400 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes. Yummy!

Good Evening. Another beautiful day. I just love it when you don't have to run air conditioning or heat which is kind of rare in Wisconsin. Most of the time we go directly from one to the other. I was busy stamping today and also mounted a bunch of new stamp sets that I ordered from the new Holiday mini. I have LOTS of cute projects planned.

My friend Carol was over tonight and bought some cards and took me for a ride in her new Equinox. She got it a week ago, 16,000 miles, red, and very nice. We drove up to Mc Donald's for ice cream. We are going to take a road trip in it very soon!!!!!

I just finished cleaning out the stuff under my kitchen sink so that Breezy can install the new kitchen faucet tomorrow. We are also going to work on my sewing room. I am so excited! I can't wait to start working in there! The weather is just gorgeous and I love it. I had to wear my sweatshirt jacket inside the stall this weekend and I sure do love sweatshirt weather!

Hello! Today's card feature's the stamp set Petal Pizzaz. We made a card similar to this several month's ago at Stamp Camp but we made it with the stamp set Ginormous Flowers and stamped it with the current In Color Inks. I recreated this same card with Petal Pizzaz and different inks. You wouldn't even know it is the same card! It is such a quick and easy card with very pretty results.
It has been the usual zoo around here today. UPS brought Beth's order today and I got that all unpacked, sorted, and bagged up. I had 5 batches of company today and in between things I got several cards made. I just talked to Jenna tonight. Antonio, Jenna, and Diana will be coming up late on Saturday and staying over night. Jenna and Antonio will go back on Sunday night and Diana is going to stay with me for a few days!!! Yippee!!! I am so excited! Diana is 11 and loves to stamp and scrapbook so we should have a good time!
