The Color Coral

When I saw this pin not too long ago, I was so motivated to use it somewhere.  Although there wasn't an event that I was planning any time soon, I of course pinned it for future use, but couldn't help randomly running into it everywhere - whether online or out an about.  So, I eventually had a vision for it with help from this.  Amazing!!!  Especially since I love dying frosting and batter these past few months...:)

Anyways, I decided to try out my own take of the color coral and I think they turned out pretty well.  What do you think??  Special thanks to Anna and Blue Paperie and of course, HGTV.

Seeing Red

I am absolutely loving this warm weather, although it is a tad warmer than May should be it just feels right to me.  As the weather started getting warmer a few weeks ago, I walked out to my little "garden" in the backyard and saw that my strawberry plants were in full bloom.  Thankfully the warm winter didn't kill them (God is just spoiling me with this weather...;), and honestly, I didn't even really think about them until yesterday when I noticed something red out of the corner of my eye.  So needless to say that my strawberries are out of control and I am really excited to actually do something with them this year.  Unfortunately, last year I only had a few and it was pretty disappointing, but this year, I may have to start selling them by the bushels just to put them to good use.










But before I get too far ahead of myself, I decided to check out my Pinterest for a few recipes that I saved for times like these.

So, when I get a few more cups, this is my first goal.  



And since I am a HUGE fan of tea, why not finish it off with one of these??? ;)





Any other strawberry recipes???  Send them my way...:)
