Wonders For William

2 dozen plain for $10
2 dozen decorated for $15

Last day for delivery is 12/16.  Orders can be placed to viviane 8 at yahoo dot com.

Emilia's Together Forever Day

Five years home with us - my heart bursts with love for this child.  I know I am completely biased, but to me she's sunshine personified, pure joy in a pixie's body, sprinkling fairy dust everywhere she goes.


Happy Together Forever Day, sweet daughter, you are loved, you are safe.

Picture Of The Day

I usually toss bananas my family's way when they ask for an afternoon snack, but decided to go a little overboard today with these cinnamon nut thins topped with vanilla mascarpone cream and raspberries.  #onceinabluemoon
