Friendship Quote

I went to the BYU  Women’s conference yesterday and went to a couple of great classes, went shopping at the bookstore and found some great finds (as in chocolate covered cinnamon bears!)   and then the night of service which was amazing!  Pics will come later.

I just want to share a great quote about friendship that I got from one of the classes:I absolutely l love this!

The last two weeks have been very busy, but rewarding!  I feel like I have been thrown into a whirlwind and now I have been spit out!  So I hope to get some good R &R this weekend and I hope that you can do the same!

Thanks to everyone for your support this week I love you all!

The Taping of Good Things Utah!

Well I made it and lived to tell about it!

This was such an awesome experience now that it is done!  I was actually very, very nervous!  My good friend, Christina went up with me to show me how everything is done.  She does a monthly segment on Good Things Utah, so I am sure that you have seen her before.  I was so glad that she went with me and showed me how everything works!  Thanks a ton Christina!  My daughter also went with us and she is such a great support.  I really appreciate her taking the time off work to go!  I have such a great support group in my family and friends. Thanks everyone!

The staff at GTU were so great to help me feel a little less nervous.  Here I am getting wired up with the microphone.

Lemon Fluff

I made this dessert for dinner on Sunday.  It is my husband’s most favorite dessert ever!  I think that I got this recipe from his mom at a bridal shower before I got married, so it has been in our family for many years.  It is a very light refreshing dessert with a graham cracker crust and topping.

Good Things Utah - Weekdays at 10 a.m. on ABC 4

Good Things Utah

I am going to be on “Good Things Utah” on Wednesday April 25, at 10 am MST!

I will be showing how to make the photo block and I would love for you to share this experience with me (just don’t tell me until after it is over).  I am really quite nervous, but also very excited about the opportunity.  I just hope that I don’t embarrass myself!

My 6 year old granddaughter thinks that I am going to be a movie star now and told me that she just can’t believe that I am going to be on TV!

Organizer Gift Boxes

Here is a really cute, fun, simple little gift idea!

It is great for teacher appreciation, a thank you gift for someone, just thinking about you, or heck, it would be great to just make one for yourself! :)

Remember the chocolate morsels that we wrapped here.  Well this is another fun way to use those sweet babies.

A Cute Little Thank You Gift!

My sister brought this over to me a few days ago and I thought that it was so cute that I wanted to pass it on to you!  Many of us are always looking for a little gift to say thank you or  ”I am thinking about you” and this gift is just perfect!  This would also work for a teacher appreciation gift for any teacher!

Mrs. Fields Cookies

This recipe is a great copycat recipe that I have had for many years!   I cannot remember where this recipe came from so I cannot give credit to anyone.  But we have had it in our family for a long time. I have made these for school kids, college kids and even mailed them away in packages to missionary sons.

One of the great things about doing a blog, is that the recipes that I post will be recorded for future use!  My recipe card is getting pretty hammered and is well worn, so now I will have a lot better copy of this recipe!

Snap Conference

I am very excited and nervous to be attending my first blogging conference!  It is going to be held right here in my neck of the woods, at Thanksgiving Point!  It is a beautiful place.  If you are attending, make sure that you visit the Tulip Festival!  It is acres and acres of gorgeous blooming tulips and other spring blossoms that are well worth your time to see.

I am getting anxious to meet lots of talented bloggers.  I have so much to learn and I am hoping that I can just soak in all the knowledge and talent from all of the speakers and  other bloggers.  I am not really sure what to expect, but I just know that I am probably one of the ones that will learn the most, because I am a new blogger, and I look forward to rubbing shoulders with all of the other bloggers!

If there are any of you out there who are attending, I would love to meet you!  Please introduce yourself and we can become new friends!
