Hi Steph! Hope you have and amazing weekend also! Sending hugs and sending wishes for a wonderful weekend!
Andrea, I love the electric candles with the cinnamon sticks! Such a great idea, and one I would like to make. Thanks for featuring my Creamed Potatoes and Peas recipe, I appreciate it! Have a great week ahead, and thanks for hosting. Melynda @scratchmadefood!
Hi there Melynda! So great to see you and all your creative yumminess! I know… the cinnamon stick candle is fabulous! It is really easy to make so don’t hesitate! I even found pretty nice cinnamon sticks at the Dollar Tree! I didn’t want to use the real good ones you know! Hope you make the candle and enjoy the aroma too! Sending hugs and sending wishes for a wonderful weekend!
We’ve been chilly in our corner of the world, too, Andrea! (Our air temps hit -17 this week with even colder wind chills!) I was grateful to be hibernating at home! As always, thank you for hosting us all! Wishing you a cozy weekend ahead!
Hello my friend! Staying warm I hope! Like I said we have to go out one way or another especially with the doggies! That one morning when the thermometer hit 2 that was a rough walk lol. Had to come in and defrost but the pups even though they are old ladies were just bouncing around! You stay warm and keep on creating! Thank you for sharing each week and being a part of the family! Sending hugs and love your way always! Enjoy the weekend!
Hi Andrea,
It takes a minute to bundle our little Cody and bundle myself to go out in the cold weather, it is a real wake call! Thanks so much for featuring my Apple Coffee Cake, I really appreciate it. I am happy to be here with my coffee to sit and enjoy everyone’s links where I am warm and cozy. Stay safe and warm, have a wonderful week and thanks so much for the party!
Miz Helen
I am sure it takes a bit of time to get you both bundled up 🙂 Same here and they are so excited and wiggling around it takes longer lol!!! Hate to wish time away but Spring is looking pretty good to me right now lol!The only thing that would make my coffee better at the moment would be a piece of that Apple Coffee Cake! I think I have to get a baking! Hope you and yours have an amazing weekend and hopefully a little bit warmer! HUGS!
Thank you dear Andrea for sharing my garland. I also loved you new doxie in the bathtub printable!
Hi there Laura! It is always wonderful to see you here! Life gets so complicated there seems to be no time to keep in touch with everyone. I think of you and your precious little one often! So it is always a treat to see you here! Sending tons of doxie hugs and wishes for the perfect weekend!
Thank you so much for hosting the party.

Hi Andrea, I can’t get over these crazy temperatures, so I’m staying indoors until it warms up a bit! Thanks for hosting and featuring my DIY cinnamon stick candles! It’s an honor, and I appreciate all the time you put into running the party! Have a fabulous week!
Hi Donna! I think you are doing the smart thing by staying indoors! Unfortunately My pups have to be walked and the cold does not bother them at all. They love getting there little Parkas on ane they are ready to go! lol! You stay in and create in the warmth of your home! Good move… Spring will be here soon! Thank you for always sharing your creative ways! Sending hugs and sending wishes for a wonderful weekend!

Hi there Esme! Always great to see you! I love the orange glaze because it is something different you can use on all kinds of things! I love when you can take something homemade and add it onto something bought and make it delish!!! Thanks for sharing! Sending hugs and sending wishes for a wonderful weekend!
It’s been cold that’s for sure. Thanks for hosting!
You have been on my mind my friend. So good to see you! Cold is not the word for it! Somehow though my two pups can’t wait to get outside and I can’t say we feel the same way lol!!! 4 am at 2 degrees is not my idea of a good time for a walk lol! How are you, how have you been. I will write soon. Sending hugs and love your way! Enjoy your weekend and stay warm.
Thanks for sharing my headboard this week! Stay warm! 🙂
You are so welcome Libbie! I also featured it in my Farmhouse Post last week! It is such a wonderful and simple project that is affordable! Thank you for sharing! Wishing you and yours a wonderful weekend filled with all things good! Hugs!
Thank you for featuring my Dark Chocolate Espresso Chip Cookies! Nestles has several new types of chips out now (another is their Triple chocolate ~ white, semi-sweet & dark mixed). * The candle reminded me of something super easy to tell you …. stick a votive candle into a little dish with some whole coffee beans. As the candle melts, it releases the coffee scent from the beans too! …. Stay warm and see y’all again next week.
Hi there Cynthia! Always great to see you! Those cookies look so amazing! Thanks for the tip but I have to be honest… I have been doing that for some time now and it is a fabulous tip! It looks pretty and smells divine! Thanks for sharing that and thinking of me… I really appreciate it!… I even make coffee candles! What is it about the smell of coffee lol… i even do my facial scrub with coffee grinds! I hope you have an amazing week in front of you! Sending hugs and love your way!
