For the (my) record

There are weeks where you arrive at Friday and wonder exactly what happened to those other days. What exactly did I do? Blogging helps to remove that disconcerting feeling. Even if I had severe memory loss, I could certainly review my archives.

Of course, I don't really talk about all the boring details of my life. And, I won't here either.

However, just for the record, these are a few of the projects I started and completed this week. I do not have pictures of the fresh tortillas, playing catch with my kids, or winning at Pretty Pretty Princess (I looked divine, by the way, but not as cute as George). I don't have pictures of the passionfruit tart or the flourless chocolate cake with Kirch glaze and cherry sauce either. But, here are a few of the pictures I did take.

Just for the record.

A sweet jumper for a sweet little girl (who adored picking everything out at the fabric store).

A fresh, new skirt for a pretty nice big girl, who didn't want to fork over the money to buy one at Saks http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%. I think mine is better anyway, but you can decide for yourself. I needed something to wear Saturday night with a black shirt. It will do.

This is a birthday cake for a dear friend, who will always be one year older than I am. And, by some twist of fate got terribly sick this week and was not able to make the desserts for her out of town guests as she had planned. So, here it is. I can't even imagine being THAT old. It must be hard.

I'm glad I'll never be as old as she is.

Next week, I will be one week older. And, for everyone's sake, I hope I'll be one week more interesting.
