Over the weekend...

I found this for $8.99 at the Goodwill {don't worry, the gum balls are new, not used}



I made this for my honey on V day...


I made these for my boys thanks to some inspiration...
It's not very often that I get to use pink!

Why don't my cupcakes ever look like that? Designer colors for cupcakes....gorgeous. Oh and the only reason Jennifer P beat you to my blog was because I left a comment on hers first...thanks for taking a peek. Both of your blogs are on my daily rounds. I need to create a blog roll and include them, but I am afraid my friends will abandon me.I also really like the new online mag...I may need to post a medallion...after all, isn't that what all the cool housewives with blogs are gonna do?

That dinner looked divine. Cupcakes are so cute. And the used gumballs, I meant the new gumball machine is cute.

Now that we have our foster daughter my husband is joking he is having a hard time sleeping with all this pink in the house! I decided not to make him anything pink for Valentine's Day.

Hey! How did the gumball machine that I just gave away to Goodwill end up in North Carolina?! I was so tired of my kids dismantling it to get to the gumballs! Looks great at your place though :)!

Fabulous dinner. Fabulous cupcakes. Give yourself a good wife/good Mom pat on the back!!!

Don't you just love PW and her posts on how she met MM. I do love a man in chaps!
And Tracey is always so inspiring!

I wish I had a hutch to put patterned paper in.

As if we would EVER think you would dish out used gum balls! I saw those cupcakes over at Cottage Industry...yours look so yummy I want lick all the frosting off!

Is that a metal gumball machine the REAL deal? If so you lucky girl. I would love to have a gumball machine. Waiting will tell I guess.

Cupcake colors remind me of ALice in Wonderland cupcakes where she has little petite four cakes that say, "Eat Me"!

The Real deal meant is the knob and the plate in the front metal? Sometimes they go cheap and make them plastic and the globe glass, and metal.

Renee,

Oh yes, all metal and glass the real deal! The photo doesn't do it justice! It is about 20 inches tall and HEAVY! I walked by it twice before I though, "I love that!".

I got it for my boys but really, for me!
