Dizzin' up Sugar Cookies!

I can't believe it's October 23rd!  Time is flying. Unfortunately, the stink bugs are still around.  Today, I attend an opera workshop which was tons of fun! I really enjoy opera!  When I got home, I decided to make some sugar cookies for Halloween.  Dizz watches almost the whole time and cleans up the crumbs! He is an awesome helper in the kitchen!  Dizz also loves to try to eat the pumpkin in the backyard!  Now we will enjoy some cookies and watch some baseball! Go Phillies!

The Granddog & some Cake!

So I think my Dad may love my dog Dizz more than anyone in the whole World! Since this weekend is so busy for us, my mom and dad (who are the greatest 2 people in the whole world....my husband is also  the greatest too :) )   are babysitting.   My husband dropped Dizz off and said my Dad was jumping up and down (literally)  at the sight of Dizz.  Dizz was very happy too!   My parents have a dog named Wabash.  Wabash and Dizz play, roll, jump, and are crazy together.   They all have a great time to say the least.  At a time just before Thanksgiving, it makes me think how thankful I truly am for my life and everyone in it especially my husband, mom, dad, animals and true friends.  I am also very thankful for the few but real friendships that I have made over my lifetime.  I do believe that a true friend is a special gift and they don't come easy! Stay tuned........hopefully I will post some baking and holiday fun soon! Have a great day!  But for now here are 2 cakes I made this summer.  One for my mom's birthday and one for my best friend Maria & Joe.

Fall

So Fall is a great time, cooler weather, a great time for Dizz. Dizz just got blessed at Animal Friends for St. Francis of Assi Day. St. Francis is my favorite saint because he loved animals and believed we must care for them. Animals are the greatest! Now he is a true Catholic! :)
