I didn’t become a coffee drinker until last year.  Not sure how I made it through college without it.  My very favorite coffee is Kona Vanilla Macadamia Nut.  My favorite coffee shop is Mahalo’s Coffee shop in West Des Moines, IA.  It’s a Hawaiian themed coffee shop that is adorable and smells so good.  They make doughnuts in the shop, hence the good smell, but I don’t actually eat them.  If you live in the Des Moines area, I’d love to meet you at Mahalo’s.  Are you a coffee drinker?  What’s your favorite?

These Coffee Cups Framelits make these cards fun and easy to make.

I love giving gift cards to the kid’s high school teachers because they totally don’t expect it! (Plus they deserve it!)

Well, we put the “W” flag away for the winter.  The Chicago Cubs had a good run and we look forward to next year!

Steve’s Birthday is this week, so our sweet Ryan came home from college to rake leaves and go to a movie with Steve.  He loves having Ryan as his “wing man.”  We don’t do much with presents, but I bought something for Steve three months ago and hid it.  The best part is, I remembered I had done that and actually found it and wrapped it up this weekend.  The reason I’m a little shocked the present thing worked out, is because I do have some memory difficulties.  I had cottage cheese before going to church and when we got back home, Steve found this in the cabinet.

LOL  OK, so I meant to put it in the refrigerator.  🙂

On a more positive note, I’ve been making roast beef in the crock pot once a week.  Since Ryan was coming home, I made this on Sunday.  It’s chuck roast cooked on low in the crock pot all day, with caramelized onions, havarti cheese on sour dough bread.  Everyone was pretty much in tummy heaven.  I think they’ll keep me around for awhile longer, even though I occasionally store the cottage cheese in the cupboard!

Please leave a comment at the top of this post.  I’d love to hear your favorite coffee or if you’d like to tell me I’m not the only one with memory issues!

Holiday Extravaganza

We had such a great time at our “Holiday Extravaganza” in September! Six Des Moines area demos got together to do this fun event. We had many customers, Stampin’ Up demos, and friends attend.  Save the date for our next big event- Saturday January 27, 2018 “Cabin Fever,” in West Des Moines, IA.  We will showcase suites from the new Occasion Stampin’ Up! Catalog coming out January 2018.  We expect to sell out, so grab a friend and get registered as soon as we announce more details.

All the participants at our “Holiday Extravaganza” received a goodie bag created just for them.  All the bags were different. This is an example of one of the bags.

Here’s one of the Fall Double Z cards opened.

We had six big displays of the different Suites in the Holiday catalog, along with lots of samples. We had prize patrol, snacks and more.  If you live driving distance from Des Moines you should plan to attend our Cabin Fever event on Saturday, January 27,2018.  You could make a weekend of it and also go to our brand new Outlet Mall in Altoona.  I’m so excited that they have a Vera Bradley Outlet!
