📕 Who had the best time at our book club meeting today? THIS GAL! We met for breakfast at Taco Cabana to discuss One Perfect Couple by Ruth Ware. I thought the book was awesome and I would put this on my must read list if I were you!

🐭 ok.... who do i know that is a ceramicist? this is a ceramic handmade paint mixing well that i think looks super cool. but it's not something for sale. i did see something sort of similar on etsy but i thought i'd ask and see if any of my friends are into throwing clay around.

Meeting you was like listening to a song for the first time and knowing it would be my favorite - Unknown
We had an amazing lunch and even celebrated with a little mini wedding cake. Thanks Marvin Haar for making life so wonderful.

Fun fact: when we got married we bought our wedding cake from Albertson's so today I stopped by and had them make a jumbo cupcake into a mini wedding cake.

Y'all ~ I am less than 100 subscribers from having 7️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ subscribers on YouTube! 📺 In one of my recent videos: https://youtu.be/CGgGGj2ear8?si=YNubau7-6AGLQWrA I made this scale. I really like how real and vintage it looks to me but y'all.... part of it is a Dollar Tree toilet plunger!! 😂

One of my other projects was this super cute 🐰 bunny head tray. I love the colors and I think it's adorable!

🗓️ I think we all, on some level, create resolutions for the new year. You might call them something different like intentions, or goals or focuses, or something like that. I just think that the new year brings along with it an innate sense of hope.

✨ And I do feel hopeful about the new year. I have some goals and I'm really excited about all the good things that will happen this year. What things are you focusing on this year? If you need help brainstorming your intentions or just want to talk about what you are excited about for the new year....☕️ I'm happy to meet with you and chat!
