What a great couple weeks it has been. November is a hectic month in this house. Marianne's birthday was the first weekend and 3 of the kids in my daycare as well. We had cake at least once a week this month!!! Zoé loves to help me bake them. I had an Epicure party where Zoé won the bingo draw and purchased the kid's bundle, complete with apron and kid's size utensiles. She is so cute! Today, we made a marble cake for Emily's birthday with...... Maple Syrup boiled frosting!!! it was sooo tasty!
Besides parties, I am so proud of a decision to clean my scraproom and put some of my stuff in a facebook auction. It all started when my husband decided that he could not do Movember this year. I though maybe I could raise a little money by selling some of my scrapbooking overstock and giving 50% to the Tree of Hope campaign. I had alot more stuff than I had originaly imagined, so I kept placing pictures on my facebook page and taking bids. So far I've raised close to 200$ and I still have lots of auctions still open. It's a win/win/win/win situation : I get a cleaner scrapbooking room, Someone gets to make use of great products that I won't use, Money is going to charity and I get to have a little money for some Christmas shopping! I'll post my grand total once all the auctions are closed after Dec 1st. To take a look just visit my
Facebook group.
