Good morning! I hope this email finds you bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. I have been so busy this past month and I wanted to share with you just what the heck I have been up to. By the time you get this email, we will be in the midst of a week-long “Thanksmas” Celebration with some of our family and friends. As much as I wish YOU were joining us, I thought that by sharing some of my creations, decor, and ideas, it would bring you into our world a little bit more.
Have a blessed and happy weekend, hugs. amie sue

Not too long ago a dear friend of mine purchased a bag of granola from the local grocery store. Upon arriving home, she early had me try it and asked if I could replicate it. It is rare that I ever turn down a challenge so I accepted and scooted home to whip up a batch. Much to my delight, I nailed it on my first attempt. Since then, I have made 8 batches due to the demand of my near-by loved ones.
