Celebrating my Day,
prima parte
It's been raining all day long...but that didn't stop my sister-in-law Christie from coming over and spoil me with lunch, dessert.....

a beautiful apron

and a 11"x 14" canvas of my babies. Starting from the left: Roosty (RIP, I do miss him), Gimpy, Cuddle and Sherry.
Thank you Christie

Tonight I baked my favorite cake made with real egg custard and drizzled with Nutella. Dean cooked an amazing dinner . I am so glad I walked with the boys for three days, lol because tomorrow I will eat some more!
Lisa Loria is bringing Quiche.

Thank you for all the Birthday wishes, I am so grateful to have you in my life. Grazie

Ciao for now

“The Dreamer”





“I dreamed a thousand new paths…..I woke and walked my old one”


“The Thinker”






I woke up this morning thinking of what a wonderful Christmas we had yesterday, with friends and family. The rain finally stopped and just going out with the boys it was such a pleasure! I am always dreaming of new adventures and realized that I love this adventure. I love my PATH.
Ciao for now

Rain, Rain go away please come back another day.......
It's been raining for 3 days non-stop. How many sugar cookies we are going to bake? lol It's really annoying if you have a workshop away from the main house with no heater and no door. It's cold and all my projects that need to be painted are not drying. Well enough complaining, at least the plants are getting lots of water.
Last White Wednesday I did a post on my first panel done, here are the other two, plus few small signs,really small.




Please stop by Kathleen's blog and say hi to all the other WW bloguettes.
Ciao for now
