Love Present

-
My mom has a tradition that she has passed along to me.
The tradition is called "Love Presents".
Love presents are those gifts you buy for no special occasion, but just because they scream out,
"This gift would be PERFECT FOR (fill in the blank with a person's name)"
Well today I was in Anthropologie and this book said, "Please buy me for Debi."
If you want to know how much Debi loves Macaroons, just check out her recent blog post.
While you are there, you will probably want to spend hours reading her very creative and informative blog.
Debi, I hope you don't already own this book. I don't know exactly when I will get it to you since you spend part of your days in London and I spend most of my days in Colorado, but hopefully, we will meet in Houston this summer and I can give you this "Love Present."
Love you, my friend.

Just to whet everyone's appetites, the picture below comes from the

Miam, miam is how the French say Yum, yum! I can not wait to see this book--it will only enhance my love for these little treats. I'm so excited--you are so dear and I can't wait to see you. When I know our schedules will connect, I will try to bring you some fresh ones from the London Ladurée as a treat.

Love Present from a Friend

One of my favorite things in the whole wide world is to receive a Love Present . The definition of a Love Present is a gift that someone gives you for no special occasion, but just because. My sweet friend, Claudia, came by the other day with the cutest dishes. She had found them at an antiques store and she said they just looked like me. Don't they make a beautiful display in my kitchen bookshelves? Thank you, Claudia, for the dishes, but most of all for the thought behind the Love Present .

Skippyjon Jones and Kohl's

I'm not sure if I should thank my friend Mindy for letting me know that Kohl's is featuring Skippyjon Jones items in their stores, or whether I should send her the bill for the items I purchased. I actually restrained myself (although all items purchased are not displayed in the picture.) There are many more Skippy Jon Jones items at your local Kohl's. Let me just give Kohl's  and their Kohl's Cares program a shout out. I am so impressed with their commitment to local charities benefitting children. All the items above were $5.00 each with the total proceeds going to charity. "Kohl's Cares thanks you for over a decade of dedication and hundreds of millions of dollars raised.  100% of the net profit from the sale of this item will be donated to support kids' health and education initiatives in communities nationwide. Since 2000, more than $180 million has been raised through our Kohl's Cares cause merchandize program." For more information, vi

Swing High, Swing Low

Jeremy made me swings for under the deck and his boys are already enjoying them. This is Aaron's smile face. Caleb's smile face. Wee!  This is fun! Learning to hold on tight. Don't you just love his shoes? This boy loves Sesame Street characters as much as his brother loves super heroes.   Since Sweetie is here visiting, she got to enjoy the swings too.
