Panda Cakies & Happy Snowpeople Cupcake Toppers

How did this happen!?!  I haven't blogged in almost a week (I miiiiss you) & I forgot to show you the cake I made a couple of weeks ago for my 10-year-old's birthday...

(Panda sculpture by Paper Sparrow and cake made my me :)

It's been one of 'those' weeks.  Ya know...the ones where you ask yourself, wait...what am I doing?  What is my purpose here and what is MOST important in my life? 

I've homemade a new recipe every night this week (yum), I've upkept the house (laundry, dishes, etc) and carved out time for each child (and the hubs ;) individually,...all is well on the homefront.  I've even made time for my girlfriends, ahem...WorkoutMommy, which was a blast... I might ad.

But, I have to find a balance...I WILL find a balance.  I am craving some creative time, but by the time we get the girls in bed, I'm beat!  I'm a night owl.  How can I be beat?  I've got a gazillion ideas swirling in this noggin' ready to be made and put in the shop, like these 'Happy Snowpeople Cupcake Toppers'...

And I've got even more to make as Christmas gifts.  I'm looking forward to Christmas though, even with my high expectations of making many of the gifts!  I'm ready to decorate the tree and wrap gifts.  I'm knitting, crafting, and working my fingers to the bone on gifts and have been shopping this week too.  I got some super cute things I can't mention yet, on Etsy ;) 

I'm realizing a lot more people read this blog than I ever imagined (which I am thrilled about), so I can't tell ya too much about the things I'm making until after Christmas.  I need to make time to check out my analytics more often ;)
