Insta Sunday

A glimpse into my week...

I crave winter.

My favorite season of the year.

I miss boots, scarves, fireplaces, hot coco and the smell of cinnamon.

I was given my grandmothers sewing machine with so many awesome goodies

just waiting for me to start a new project. Now I just need to lean to sew.

I made this wall and table banner for a friends birthday.

I was pretty excited the way they turned out.

I blogged about my new favorite Starbucks coffee: Tall Skinny Peppermint Mocha

Next thing I knew, my husband surprised me with one at work. I adore him so much.

We officially have a sophomore. That's right, first day of school this week for

our oldest Rachel. I just realized she learns to drive this year. Freaking out? Yes!

Ended the week with a beautiful bouquet of red roses

delivered to me at work. My husband spoils me rotten. :)

Happy Sunday and remember to SHINE!

Next party, I'm making these....

In our house we love to bake {and that's an understatement}! Sometimes we use baking as art, more than a reason to eat. Seriously. So I've put together a few of my "must try" ideas. Aren't these just too cute!

This would be a perfect "theme" for a future Tuesday 10. What do you think?
Guess I'm showing my social media and Starbucks addiction a little too much...{haha never}

Tea Party & Conversation Cookies... I think YES!

You're never too old for a Tea Party, right?

I'm a coffee drinker {to say the least}, but all the talk lately has been about tea. I didn't know the first thing about tea so I invited my niece Kimberly, who blogs at Tea with Kimmy, to come over and school me on tea.

WOW did she come prepared! She had about 20 different types of tea's to try, hot and cold, flavored and not, real sugar and Stevia.... The list went on and on. She even told me what each tea was for {healthy wise}, which do drink day or night and where to buy each different brand for the best price. She's was a genius!

She even brought our family a goodie bag which had a "tea cup" for each of us! She's so sweet.

Once tea consumption level was maxed out, we moved on to my specialty, baking! With Valentine's Day around the corner I thought it would be fun to bake conversation cookies. Here's our day in photos...
