Sometimes I just don’t want 2 dozen cupcakes sitting in my house so I get a store-bought package of 6. I scrape off the frosting and then frost them and decorate them myself. It’s the perfect amount! Enjoy everyone!

And for anyone wondering what the meaning behind St. Patrick’s Day is — St. Patrick’s Day observes of the death of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. The holiday has evolved into a celebration of Irish culture with parades, special foods, music, dancing, drinking and a whole lot of green.  It’s a wonderful day to celebrate and have some fun!

A few things you should know about me: I’m an iced-coffee addict, I love to organize, and I love my wine. I am also a master at fort-building and being the belly-eating monster. Fitness and healthy eating habits are important to me so you may hear a little about that too. Here you will read about my daily musings and of course my venting, wine glass in hand. Hope you find something you can relate to. Cheers. If you’re a crafty kind of person, come visit me over at The Crafty Collaborative.
