These were very nice, beautiful, sweet enough for me !!! I don't know how they create them to be so very pretty ??? They are mermaids color hues with some pink sprinkles, turquoise icing !!!! Nice cakes !!!! YUM !!!! Hostess brand, others available elsewhere I'm sure !!!

The unicorn horse cupcakes I found are swirled, pink, purple with the colorful icing and these are very beautiful as well......nice for the lunch pail !!!! Little Debbie brand !!!

I enjoy cupcakes individually wrapped, and easy to take on the go, when rushed, in a hurry !!!! These are colorful, cutesy cupcakes, nice price I might add also !!!

Those you may freeze yourself, variety in those....as a child I always liked Otter pops !!!! Lol !!! The characters are cutie !!! Kool - Aid, Cool Pops, several variety in those and Italian ice, another brand !!!

Finding these locally available at the local grocery store, dollar stores, most all have these frozen, icy, treats out there for us ya know ???? Wal-Mart, target most stores as these have PLENTY to choose from, ALL sizes, variety in the freezer aisles !!!!

I found glittered case manicure set !!!!

Yesterday at the local family dollar I found something that was VERY eye catching !!!! It was a glittered case small manicure set !!! It wasn't much cost so I purchased it !!!

red potatoes + gravy......yum !!!!

Tonight I am tired from chores and tending to work !!!

I have been thinking much about red potatoes and how simple, quick prep they seem to be !!!

I have forever enjoyed the red potatoes with gravy, homestyle or the easy add water gravy mixes in the pouches.......simple !

You MUST first WASH + scrub the red potatoes first, then cut slices into each individual red potato to let them have air to steam / boil them...remain whole......Boil first about fifteen minutes to twenty minutes....drain water...let cool !!! THEN I prefer mine covered interior the hot temperature gravy in a cooking pan, OR I pan fry after boiling THEN place interior the gravy !!!! Salt + pepper as you wish !!!! Nice as a side with a home cooked meal.......fried chicken meal or chicken strips, a green vegetable also as a side with this !!!! Yum !!!

I know for many years my family has had red potatoes from the garden and prepared them as this, ALWAYS been a fave of ours !!! 

Hope you enjoy as well !!!!!!!!

Stressed ?? Bored ?? Upset ??? Let's start coloring !!!

I have been VERY ill this past week as I have been sick with allergy, sinus infection !!! I become uncomfortable, stressed, depressed, bored......I tend to my work activities as I should BUT on the extra free time I have, I have found that I calm, feel much better just coloring in the coloring books !!!! Haha !!! I know it sounds silly but I quite ENJOY it...!!!

I know that there is much art therapy for our minds, body, soul to calm, soothe our feelings, thoughts, minds, to relax.....any art or craft helps my mind, and for me, this week it has been coloring interior the coloring books !!!! Ahhh......much better !!!!     ;)

I prefer to just shop locally on the days I am tired, exhausted, or ill, not feeling any good.......so I go to the local Dollar stores, whichever I can find the coloring books and often I purchase new artist pens, coloring pencils, or markers, ALL variety !!!!! Thin markers art best for detailing, or the detailing marker pens are wonderful !!!!

The dollar stores have variety of the children's coloring books, and / or the older age adult coloring books available, thicker pages, NO picture to color on the back side of the pages are BEST for the markers / detailing pens / markers !!!! I become VERY EXCITED to seek + find ANY coloring / art book or color marker, color pencil, pen pack sets !!! The colors are eye catching and I enjoy them each to use, color with !!!!!

Just choose a few coloring books you may enjoy as you shop, and throw them interior your shopping cart !!! Lol.....that's how I am at the stores !!! Most times they are just a few dollars at the stores, so I can afford a few or so ya know ???

These stores have the artist pens, coloring pencils, artist markers, or plain markers available for us ALL to enjoy ::::

-- Wal-Mart
-- Hobby Lobby
-- dollar General
-- family dollar
-- dollar tree
-- Michaels
-- Joanns

On the internet / online there are variety and plenty !!! plenty !!! plenty !!! So many that I become too excited at the variety, very unique gift idea as well !!!    ;)

I just enjoy coloring the pages and I listen to music, drink refreshment, relax, focus on coloring the pages !!! Before I know what has happened I am almost completely finished with coloring the entire coloring book !!! Haha !!! You know how silly I am !!!   

If you are upset, stressed, ill, depressed, worried about something, just go throw yourself into a coloring book, it helps us to calm, relax !!! know that some people may also prefer the crayons !!! That's wonderful !

ALL prices, variety.....plenty for us to seek for !!!!

adore !!!

Love, j !!!
