Chocolate Covered Bacon?

So I've found a new show that I am really amused by called Chopped on the Food Network. The show begins with 4 chefs, each vying for the $10,000 cash prize. They are given 20mins to prepare an appetizer but the curve-ball is that right before the timer begins, they get a basket of random, unusual and sometimes disgusting ingredients they MUST use in their dish. Then its narrowed down to 3 chefs who then prepare a main dish, once again with new, mystery items and then down to 2 chefs who prepare a dessert. Well the other night bacon was one of the ingredients they had to use for the dessert dish and one of the chefs concocts chocolate covered bacon. BLECH! It goes without saying, but he did not win. Anyway, it comes on Tuesday nights at 9pm CST....but that's what DVRs are for :o)

Tune-rific Tuesday

Ok, so Musical monday slipped my mind, but I got you covered today.
In honor of the impending spring time, here is a lovely tune...a fave of mine: This Bouquet, Ani D.

I*HEART*FACES (Creative Crop)

Special thanks to Lori for sharing this really fun photo blog called I*HEART*FACES. While I've been on a bit of a break lately, I do love taking photos. Maybe this will help me find my mojo again...

Anyway, this weeks challenge is cropping. Using pics from Saturday's snap-fest, here is my entry:

Sorry, no Musical Monday today, but I'm not leaving you completely empty-handed. Here is a video from a couple weeks ago of Wyatt reading his most favorite book ever No, David by David Shannon with his auntie Ree-Ree and uncle Josh.

My Inner Craftress

I have been blessed with a patient man who has been gracious enough to not complain (too much) about me taking over the spare room in our house. Its my cove of crafty greatness. My sanctuary. My hide-a-way. Mine all mine. Well, its still a work In progess, but I promise to share some pics just as soon as its a little more presentable. I haven't been working on it much recently cuz I haven't been feeling the greatest, but I am slowly getting back into the swing of things.

I do want to share a really amazing site I happened upon recently.
Heather Bailey is one amazing designer and creative inspiration. Her site is www.hellomynameisheather.com
She has several collections of fabrics that are to simply to melt for. Sure makes me wish I could sew a whole heck of a lot better than I can. Be sure to check out the yo-yo instructions posted on the side-bar. I've been one yo-yo-making fool lately, lol. So cute, cute cute! Also the paper topiaries are super cute too. Takes some patience but the end result is really neat. I'll have to snag a pic of the one I made. So click on by and check it out...
