Collections

I am a collector by nature I have always collected things when I was a child it was porcelain dolls, teddy bears, all the shirt tales etc.

I have a few collection right now owls, Pyrex, vintage Thermos etc. but I really want to start collecting souvenir spoons did your grandmother collected these?

Johnny's grandmother collects thimbles which would be cool too but I don't want to be a copy cat so here is my new obsession ( I have them often) :D
I want my grand kids to look at my collection like I always do Mama Ellen's thimbles and wonder about them...who gave them to her...
I want one from every state!!!

What do you collected?

You want to send me one from where you live I would love you to pieces!!!!

Can you tell the little things just make me so HAPPY!

I was a guest blogger today at Aquafrolic so please go check out my little DIY post!

have a lovely day

Tasty Tuesday

So ok I won this super cute giveaway from Janel
this picture is missing all the great candy we were eating it :D
She even included Dixie a sweet little hat (she made it how great is that!)
Now on to Tasty Tuesday... Debbie shared this great recipe it would be perfect for
Valentine Day!


1 sheet puffy pastry, thawed at room temperature
8 ounces Cream Cheese, softened
¼ cup Confectioner’s Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 lb Fresh Strawberries, sliced
¼ - ½ cup Granulated Sugar
2 cups Whipped Topping
¼ cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
 
 
Makes 3 servings.
1. Cut your sheet of puff pastry into six, equal portions and bake per the instructions on the package. Once these are baked, remove and cool.
2. Next, clean and slice the fresh strawberries. Place in a bowl and add the granulated sugar. Place in the refrigerator while you prepare the cream.
3. In a large mixing bowl, add your softened cream cheese, confectioner’s sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth. Next add the 2 cups of whipped topping and mix at medium speed to incorporate it into your cream cheese mixture. I then put this into a container and placed into the refrigerator to keep cool until needed to put the napoleon’s together.
4. Now, place one of the pieces of puff pastry onto your plate. Add a few tablespoons of the cream mixture on top and spread it a little till it looks like its running down the sides a bit. Next you will add your strawberries. I took them, piece by piece and arranged them into a nice layer on top of the cream mixture. Add a small dollop of the cream mixture on top of the berries to help the next piece of puff pastry to stay in place. Now repeat.
5. After you put on the berries for the second time, I added a little bit of the whipped topping and spread it evenly on the top. Now you will melt your chocolate chips and drizzle the chocolate over the whipped topping.
6. I then sprinkled with a pinch of confectioner’s sugar to dress it up a little.
 
Note: I usually buy the larger container of whipped topping which allows me to add the extra to the top of the dessert. If you only by the smaller one, you can use more of the cream cheese mixture.

I am off to the post office I hope everyone is having a great day! The weather here in Georgia is gorgeous I think I will take the dogs for a walk!

Hugs
Carrie

What is the mostCheck Spellingembarrassing thing that has ever happen to you? I had to really think about this one for awhile...In school at lunch this boy ( who was very cute btw) said something funny I laughed and proceeded to cover him in chocolate milk. I wanted to crawl under the cafeteria table.

What is your favorite board game you like to play? I love board games but my favorite is scrabble but bring Monopoly, Life, Clue, Apples to Apples, Catch Phrase, Trouble or Trivia Pursuit and its on any day :D

What is your favorite thing you have made lately? My favorite thing lately would be the pom pom wreaths but I am working on something this weekend that I am very excited about hehe

What would you say is your best feature? I would have to say my eyes are best feature in my opinion but I also think I have a nice smile :-)

Name the top three things on your "bucket list" 1. Is to live somewhere else I have always lived in my little town in Georgia I want to experience more that is out there 2. To travel 3. To own my own store!

What is the most exciting place you have ever been and why? This is going to sounds so crazy going to a Joan Baez concert. Johnny surprised me with tickets. The concert was in Atlanta in a tiny little theater it was like she was singing just for me. I cried it was wonderful! I also meet REM that was pretty cool too.
I split the questions so ya'll would not get too bored!

If you are from the south you know you have to eat collards and black eyed peas for good fortune for the new year. Well collard I have always thought YUCK! But they were really good! Everyone was fighting over the last bite. So new tradion yay that always makes me happy!

1. To be healthier it seems vague but I am working out a plan in my head I will put it down on paper this week.
2. Open my Etsy store I have wanted to do this for a while now and I haven't I think out of fear so I have decide to just do it !
3. To be happy with me and quit caring so much about what other people think of me and more about what I think of myself.

That's it :D I am working on a 36 things to do before I turn 36 list

Here is my new obsession yarn pom poms!

I know I said I was going to take a little break but I found myself alone this afternoon so I thought I would do a little blogging and catch up on everyone's holidays!

Happy Monday!
