New Year! New Goals

So this year has been really slow. 2010 is where its at! I have already set many personal goals and have even made a list of things I want to accomplish in 2010. Hopefully I can perservere and make 2010 everything I wanted 2009 to be!

Christmas Cards

So even with the hectic schedule for National Novel Writing Month, I still managed to whip up some cute Christmas Cards. I think they all turned out rather cute!

NaNoWrMo - I did it

Well, I did it! 50,000 words in 30 days. Another one of my things on my to do list complete. Now just to edit away! I am so proud of myself for this accomplishment. Who knows, maybe this is my calling.

Update

Ok, so the cauliflower dish WAS NOT a success, that's what I get for not trying the recipe first, I would suggest definitely adding cheese sauce, then it would be good. The wedding cake turned out okay for my first one ever, by the bottom layer I figured it out. Not bad for a free wedding cake - so the bride loved it of course. Now I know what mistakes I made and what to fix next. I will be starting to make some Halloween SVG cut files soon, stay tuned for freebies! Anyway, here is a picture of the cake.

Recipe Club

Tonight is recipe club, here is the recipe page I scrapped, I tried to keep it simple. I also had to make my recipe index divider, since it is the first night. My assignment was to come up with a divider for side dishes.

Welcome and News from the Weekend

Okay, here is my first post, I am officially a blogger! This weekend my creativity seemed to escape me, although I did make my recipe card for my recipe club on Thursday. So, off to the lake we went, we are not going to get many more nice days in Michigan to do that, so a few hours out of the house was just what we needed. I believe the trip was just what I needed to renew my creative lull, because I started working on the wedding cake (my first wedding cake ever!) I have to have made by Saturday and came up with a million more ideas on how the finished project is going to turn out.
