Missing my Dad

It was 3 years ago today that my father died. He was a person who loved life and people, I miss you dad.

Circus Oz ...a very unconventional circus

Circus Oz is a very interesting &  unconventional circus that is originally from Australia performing for over 30 years and is now touring here in America to share their talent ....yes I did say talent. I watched their video before going and knew what to expect from this circus which was going to be animal free & not a normal circus show or a Cirque de Soleil show. I figured since they were an Australian Troupe the humor was going to be very different from an American circus.  It was a little bit traditional old school circus blended with some physical comedy & a little jazz and rock and roll. The performers were trained in China for their acrobatics and were all very skilled.
I was pretty lucky to be able grab 4 tickets from House Seats and even luckier to sit in the Box seats at the Smith Center where they delivery your champagne and wine right to you. Very fun afternoon with lots of laughs with friends ...if this was a regular circus I wouldn't have bothered but with this show I totally enjoyed the day.

Girl Scout Thin Mint Cupcakes

Tomorrow in class we will be celebrating Lory's birthday and I had just bought  some yummy Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies so I'm thinking....Cupcakes? They might be the best chocolate cupcakes I have made to date. Made the chocolate batter from scratch and thew in a sleeve of crushed up cookies and frosted them with Mint Butter Cream Frosting. Happy Birthday Lory

Friends are so important

Most of you know about my friend Carol, some of you may have been in classes with her. Carol has been in the hospital since Oct. 2nd when she had surgery for a ruptured aneurysm. She has had a really rough road and still has a long long way to go. Today I went over to see her and I met June and Jerry at the hospital. She was so happy to see us all that the nurse said she cried when we left. She has an appointment with her Neurosurgeon this Thursday to schedule another big surgery so if any of you have plans to visit please try to go before then to give her a little extra moral support.

A little birdie told me

Okay so I have been home in bed for 3 days with a really bad cold so what's a girl suppose to do but surf the web? I have been all over the web just lookie looing as they say. I am truly addicted to Pintrest and might have to start going to PA meetings in the near future. You can find the most unusual and useless gadgets but really ....how cute is this little crystal bird speaker for Ipods? I might have to put it in my "might have to get" basket ...I just love it!
