The proud bakers!

We had the delightful opportunity to get to spend almost an entire day with my other grandaughter Gabrielle. This is so rare because she is such a busy lady. She is in culinary arts at her high school and is becoming quite the accomplished chef. Of course we had to do another baked alaska. It was a blast. They even got to flame it with my new favorite toy, a torch. Brie is so wonderful with Peyton Grace and PG adores her. We got to eat a picnic up in the arbor on a beautiful day. Such fun. Two of my favorite girls and baking in the same day. Life is good.

Peyton Grace thinks the sun rises and sets over Gabrielle's head. Fortunately, Brie is a fabulous roll model. This sweet girl really has her act together. She is funny and delightful with a smile that will just knock you over.

Puddles of meringue wonderfulness.

My lovely Brie

She is who I want to be when I grow up!

Have A Wonderul Valentines Day!

Our wonderful marshmellow goodies. We had such fun making them. Last week we made baked alaska, the week before we did meringues (sp?). By the way she hates eating anything that an eggs passes by, so getting her to taste these wonderful goodies is a challenge.

PG made all on her own little tiny cookies for her friends at school. She made them wrapped them and they're ready to go.

Making the mix. We also did a delishious hot chocolate mix and put everything in celophane bags tied with pink curly ribbon in cute little Hobby Lobby boxes. So much fun to do.

The amazing Grace at work!

And the final product all bagged up and ready to go. We love to gift. I gifted her and then she disappeared and came down with the most adorable choker of a painted beer cap (ahem, yes, mine) painted red with a little pink heart on a green ribbon. Who knew beer caps could be used in such a way.

Have a wonderful day this valentines day. Don't forget to give a little love to friends and family as well.

Take a peek at these!

Tell me now, how cute are these!?!

My sweet friend Jenna knit these wonderful hobo gloves for me in the fall. Not only did she knit the gloves but she also crocheted the lace that is attached. My daughters don't call her "the amazing Jenna" for nothing!!
I have about worn them out, especially during the Christmas business. They leave your fingers free but keep your hands cozy.
