5 Things You Don't Know About Me

Here are a few things you might not know about me. Just a few random facts :)


1. My dad is a farmer (his second job). Yep. I grew up on a farm sorta well my grandpa lives at the farm and we live down the road. I used to spend my spring breaks cutting/stacking wood, summers bailing hay/straw and picking rocks in the field. What fun.... NOT.... but I got to spend time with dad and grandpa, get a farmers tan, and build a little arm muscle lol.

2. I used to show sheep in 4-H for eight years. I would name them.... Oh how I remember John Smith and Pocahontas. I tried to find a pic but I think there all in Michigan :(

3. When I visit family in the winter up north I like refuse to drive in the snow since a incident a few years back. I hate black ice.

4. I'm super afraid of heights so planes are always a trip!

5. I hate/terrified of snakes.

Sweet Lemon

I wanted to share this recipe I found over the weekend for Lemon Cookies. Its so delicious and if you like lemons you will love this. The recipe can be found here and I decided to make my own frosting. The lemon frosting is 2 cups powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of milk, and one lemon zested and juiced, mix together (this only covered 1/2 of the cookies).



Its a lemon explosion lol.

On another note over the weekend I spent the day at the hospital with my cousin because he had surgery. It was a complicated and super risky procedure but he came out perfect with no complications. I started a new blanket the pattern can be found here. The squares are big and beautiful. Jerry and I had our 5th Anniversary on the 15th:) Holy moly we have been together for 5 years its gone by so fast.

We also went to see the Harry Potter movie. Now I can't wait to see the next Sherlock Holmes movie since I saw the previews:)

Updates!

Hello everyone. I hope you had a great weekend. This last weekend I completely relaxed and crafted:) and today I made some updates to my Etsy shop.



I liked making hair clips so much that I decided to make different types of fabric flowers and sell them in my shop. What do you think?

Delicious

On the 4th I went to the Killebrew's in Brandon (Jerry's parents) to have BBQ Ribs and I decided to make mini fruit pizza's. I haven't had these in so long and they are so delicious I wanted to keep eating them:)



I found the recipe here but instead of making cookie dough I bought ready to bake cookie dough. The fruit I used was raspberry's, strawberry's, and blueberry's. I kept the red and blue theme:)
