Long Time No See

So much has happened since my last blog...sad times, happy times, bored times, stressed times...I'm starting to realize that I need more fun times, life is way too short. Thing is my idea of FUN has changed with time. Right now just having time to paint my nails and actually letting it dry without getting polished smeared or toes stepped on by my active toddler would be fun. At this point my expectations of what categorizes fun is very low.

There just aren't enough hours in the day and weekends go by too fast, by the time it ends and the work week begins I feel as though I would have been better off working the weekend... Sad I know.

Current Life necessity:
Hobby that:
  • Doesn't require 100% attention for a long period of time(toddler may be present)
  • Can be done by myself or with little helping hands (when they're present)
  • instant esteem builder
  • productive
  • not messy
  • Can be done both during the day and night so that it can fit in with "when I have time"
Any thoughts?

Anyways I'm about to finish cleaning up this messy kitchen o mine and prepare for an early bake...

Menu:

Reason: Complimentary Treat for my guests...Ok all our guest are special but these ones have booked out ALL our rooms and are staying for a week...so a small token shouldn't hurt. (Every now and then I do something spontaneous...I know consistency is good, but I honestly don't have time to do this for everyone.)
Downer: I need to have these ready and out the door by 6AM cause I understand they are early risers.
Upper: Ready in 35min

Wish me luck.

Thanks Carrie,

Beth is a real sweetie. I did the banner myself...but I had to have my hubby show me how to actually put in on my page.

Oh and for a first try, the muffins came out perfect.

Muffins are great quick things to do because they don't require a lot of mixing. Carrie is great. You'll love her. Thanx for the complement. I feel the web love...
