HERES TO A BRIGHT AND SHINEY NEW YEAR!I wish I had something profound.. or profitic,
or intensely deep to say about the old year and this new year..
but I dont!
All I can say is last year was a blast..
and I know that this new year will be too...
because.. I'll make sure it is!
I dont do new years resolutions.. because I generally dont keep them.
I'm not usually a very committed person (other then to my husband and family!)
but this year, I am going to make a couple :
1) I will lose another 40 pounds by mid June!
2) I will stop blowing money on every little whim that I get...
(now this one might be a little hard to stick too.. I think its easier to lose weight!!)
3) Enjoy each day in some way. (this shouldnt be hard.. because I think I already do it!)
4) finish that quilt I started!
thats all.. I dont think I need anymore.. do you?
And I also want to say Thank you for another great blogland year. I have met the most awesome creative and kind people out here in the last few years. You all have contributed so much to my crazy world! I dont know what keeps you all coming here.. But Im SO GLAD YOU DO!!
OK.. So lets kick off the new year.. with something healthy!
this is one of the things i made last night to take to a party.
they are little fruit pizzas. very very good! and only 1 weight watchers point each!
Heres the recipe!8 oz fat free cream cheesen
1/2 container of fat free or lite cool whip
3 tbsps powdered sugar
beat with mixer
spread over 24 halfed LOW FAT grahm crackers
(though theres enough mix to make twice as much probably, if you only do 24, you'll have a good amount of filling left over.)
Then just add pieces of fruit of your choice. I used halfed strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and mandarin oranges. I forgot to get the kiwi or that would have been on them too. anyways.. the best part about it, it that they are really only about 1 point a piece! you can eat a bunch of them ir you wanted to!
Ok, so I'm off to clean my house.. then to return a gift, then maybe to the book store and probably the grocery store for a couple things ! Then I'll be home working on some projects!
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Happy new year to you!
Hi Vivian!! I got your comment from my blog and I can't believe you live so close!! Have you ever been to the antique and thrift stores in North Tonawanda? I think you would love them! Also, I saw on your blog you just got your daughter a chinchilla for Christmas! I also have a chinchilla!! :) Mine is a grey one named Binki and he lives in my craft room :) If you are ever in need of another one, let me know- I could get you one for free :) It's been great meeting you and I know this swap is going to be so much fun! Maybe if you're in the Buffalo area sometime we could do lunch :)
Happy New year!!! Love the new blog look! :)
Happy New Year!
Hi Viv *waves! Happy 2010 to you as well!
I absolutely LOVE that bear! What kind of fabric is that? As that's what I'm looking for- it's kinda stretchy right?
Sounds like you have it made - as far as your goals!
(ps- it's ok to buy things on a whim *winks*)
Hugs & Faerie Dust!
HAppy New Year! These look soooo yummy, right now!
