I lose scissors around here like crazy. Where are they???

This morning I made cinnamon rolls. Nothing fancy, just the kind you do out of a can. Logan loves them. Leo of course won't eat them. I don't know if I ever mentioned that the boys pretty much are complete opposites even down to what each will or won't eat.

Whenever I make cinnamon rolls it always makes me think of when I used live with my old college roommate. She would make them every Saturday or Sunday. I never cared for them much. I especially didn't like the icing then and would maybe eat one if it didn't have that on it. Now I make them for my own kid who loves them. I probably make them close to once a week. Probably more like every other week, but still. I have to admit they do smell good.

Do you have any food that always makes you think of someone or something? I have a few food items that always spark memories.

I did get a chance to make a new card for the Cardabilities challenge. This was the sketch.




















Here's the card I made.






























BG: flower small pp, bird pp, red wood pp, big flower chipboard, Lace: hand dyed with alchol inks, Unknown: Green/wht pp, and orange transperancy piece, Thickers: white letters

Today my plan is to walk the dogs, finish laundry, go grocery shopping, and get ready for the coming week. Hope everyone is having a good Sunday!

(i do drive, tho... and even *I* can swing Popin' fresh! which could be a problem!) :) :) :)

happy sunday, missus! ♥♥♥

ps: i'm ok with scissors... but i almost ALWAYS lose at least one tiny element i have fussy cut and find it months later stuck to the underneath of a couch cushion or in a packet of rhinestones. sigh. :)

Love the combination of colors and papers ... i won't even confess to how many pairs of scissors I have on my work table (at least two of every kind I need) because I lose them on my work table several times a week.
