We had a little impromptu Superbowl Party tonight. My husband has been gone for a week to Vegas on a business meeting, and he got home 12:30 -1 ish Saturday night. We were all glad to be a family again and in a weak moment of Sunday morningness we decided to send a little invite the way of Grandmas and Grandpas. Well one Grandma was very sick on the couch with 102* so that set of grands couldn't come. but the other ones came over. I made some homemade sloppy joe's and all the party fixins. I said, "This is not a gourmet party, it's a football party... so no fancy food." LOL

Food was hot and good and we all had a nice time. Wyatt and Dad were cheering on opposite sides and there was a lot of silly betting being tossed about. At one point I think switching chorse was an option until Dad said if he had to clean Wy's room, it would all just go in the garbage can, so Wy chickened out on the betting in case he actually won!

On the artistic front, some of my Valentine designs made it into the Feb issue of Create & Decorate. Here is a scan of the vignette.


You can see a pic of each of the nine designs on my Published Projects page.
And some of them are even still for sale in My ETSY store if you want to check them out!

Here are some of the very latest goodies to come out of the studio... Yummy treats!
I made some faux chocolates and faux tarts.


Some bonbons


little tarty cakes


And this is how they come to you, all packaged for giving to that special someone who just needs to decorate with some yummy looking treats, but wouldn't dare eat them! They're so cute :)


I did snap some pics of the Valentine decorations, and also the might cupcake trays the boys brought home from the party last night. Will try to get them up soon as well.
Happy Superbowl night!
