So much of what we hear about today is gloom and doom. I decided to create a blog where I and others can come for a little bit of happiness and maybe even laughter...it truly can be the best medicine. I hope these entries share a smile or two. Enjoy!

Piano Man

Joseph has been taking piano lessons now for almost a year. He had his first piano recital last Monday. He had memorized his songs and did very well. He was a bit embarrassed, but loved the attention and felt very proud of himself, rightly so. Good job son! I'm proud of you too!

Hurray, Hurray, it's your lucky day!

Thanks for all of the entries. I must say that I agree with those of you that enjoy and indulge in Utah's Own Truffles. I am partial to the almond truffle and buy it quite frequently. It does make a long day of shopping bearable, to say the least.
The winner, chosen by random.org, is Patricia, in the number 8 spot. I'll put the certificate in the mail, and just remember to think fondly of me as you are feasting upon those delicate morsels of deliciousness. ;-)

Pure Ambrosia

I promised a yummy giveaway this month, and here it is: In celebration of my birthday, I am giving away a pound gift certificate to See's Candies. One of the most delectable things in this world is well made chocolate. Although some of my favorite kinds are in Europe, See's puts out some tasty morsels. My favorite selections from See's are Milk Cocoanut, Strawberry cream, and Scotchmallow. Umm, umm. The best chocolate I ever had was an elephant made of white chocolate, with chocolate ganache in the middle. My in-laws brought it back from Belgium years ago and I still think fondly of it. Tell me your favorite See's chocolate and/or favorite chocolate truffle from somewhere else and you will be in the drawing. I will announce the winner on my Birthday this Friday. It will be a day of true celebration.

My Little Sunshine

I finally got around to getting Jensen's 4 year old photos. He's such a cutie. He starts preschool this week. Time goes by so fast. We have to cuddle them while we have a chance.
