Every post should begin with a beautiful cupcake picture, don't you think??? well, at least every Monday post! LOL!!! {btw, be sure to read to the very end of this post! There's a fun announcement!!}

I've decided that to curb my wildness foodwise, Fridays are my semi-splurgy days! (i'll make an exception next week on Wednesday, because it's my birthday!!) And last week, my sil gave me two vouchers for 15$ each at selected restaurants in our area. Well, one of those restaurants just happened to be my favorite bakery, The Sweet Boutique! If you are local, run there and binge!! Okay, don't binge, but plan on having a gorgeous dessert sometime there! They are tasty, beautiful, and very fun!! And they have French Macarons! LOVE!!

Here's another pic of our loot…and don't worry…I tracked my sugar intake, too!

My darling friend Dixie and I had planned on doing this little western quilt for this contest a while (a long while!) back…I lost my brain and totally forgot about the deadline. She recently found the stack of little things (blocks and fabrics) in her craft room and brought them to me! Aren't those little corner blocks perfect???
