~♥ It's An Honor ♥~

I have been a fan of Gooseberry Patch for many many years.  I honestly can't even remember when I started collecting their cookbooks, but once I bought one I couldn't stop.  I wish I had written in them when I got them so I would know which one was the first one I bought. 

I was asked last year to be an Early Bird Reviewer, which was an honor for me.  I had the opportunity to review, " Best Ever Cookies".  I love baking since I definitely have a sweet tooth.  I love to cook as well, but sweets have always been my first love!

When Jen from Gooseberry Patch contacted me and told me they wanted me to be fan of the week on their Gooseberry Patch Facebook Fan Page I was so excited...thank you so much Gooseberry Patch...I will always sing your praises!

Why not stop over and visit them?

I bought my daughter a Nook Tablet for Christmas.  She absolutely loves it.  I thought it would be nice to have one to download some of the free E-books that are being offered by Gooseberry Patch.

I've always wanted a Kitchen Aide Mixer.  I do a lot of baking and this beauty would come in very handy.

I've been a fan of Vera Bradley for many years...back when it wasn't very popular.  Boy have the styles and patterns changed over the years.  They are so much nicer now.  I'm loving this Doodle Daisy Frame Bag.

I love anything that Susan Branch is involved in.  She was featured in this book along with other fantastic blogging women.  Here's what's written on Susan's website about the book:

Every meal they make and share is a celebration, and each photo-rich profile offers a peek into their cooking environment, favorite recipes (more than 60 of them), and tips on how to turn every moment festive, whether it's a holiday party or a family dinner.The women include: Susan Branch (of course!); popular food blogger Molly Wizenberg of Orangette; bestselling author and blogger Angie Dudley of Bakerella; The Pioneer Woman Ree Drummond; Farm Chick Serena Thompson, and other popular food personalities. "- Susan Branch Website

~♥ A Quote ♥~

“Trust is like a vase.. once it's broken, though you can fix it, the vase will never be the same again.” I'm starting a new series on my blog...I've always loved quotes and I'll share those that speak to me. ♥ Kim

Gooseberry Patch had a post on their blog about Easter Memories...I always remember dressing up for chuch.  Here is one of my favorite pictures.  I was almost three years old way back in 1968.
