First, I have to say that I love being a blogger and I love being able to try new products and bring them to my readers.  It makes my day when my readers let me know that they have tried the product on my recommendations.  Today I have a new product for you.

Foodie Friends Friday ~ Easter Party #foodiefriendsfriday

Easter is finally here, doesn't it seem like that it has taken a long time to get here... Although I hope the Easter Bunny doesn't get stuck in a snow bank when he is delivering his treats this year.

Almost Wordless Wednesday

This morning we woke up to snow... What a way to start our Anniversary.  8 years ago today I got married in Togo, West Africa and the weather was quit different ~ way too warm and no thoughts of snow in the forecast.  I wasn't too impressed to see the new snow on the ground but at least so far it is only a dusting but the sky was magnificent.  It was a bluish - purple colour and even though it was snowing the sun was big and bright in the sky.  

 These pictures don't do it justice... but I loved how the sun was coming through the tree branches.
