I hope you all are enjoying this long weekend, I had a pretty good one. Saturday on the way to the park there was a few yardsales where I snagged up a white chenille for $0.50!!!!! That made my day then when I got home I was so excited because there was a package for me ( I knew It was coming but still) It was a lot of vintage cupcake/cake decorating items I had won from ebay you know how sometimes you win, sometimes you lose on ebay this time I WON!!!!!!
When I bid I was a skeptic because the listing had one lousy photo and not very good description but it was like $8.00 for a large lot that was to include cupcake/cake items for baby, Birthday and a few ballerinas. When I opened the box there was a big ole' bag of vintage ballerinas! I also found tucked in some tissue an old wedding cake topper with millinery flowers atop! I told my husband this was the mother load. There were other goodies too so I will have plenty of supplies and inspiration for some new projects!
My mama's Birthday is next week so I also started working on her a crown that says Birthday Queen and of course I used one of my ballerinas! I hope she loves it, I will have to ship this present I do wish we could be together for her special day I may try to surprise her haven't figured out the details yet. She always made me the nicest Birthday cakes growing up no matter what we had cake! My favorite was a cake she made with raspberries and she made the icing with raspberries and cream cheese YUMMO!
With all this kitchy goodness I had to share a few pics of my own kitchy kitchen, I hope you enjoy I warn you there is alot of pink and alot of whimsy! This isn't your average stuffy kitchen no not here, you will find traces of powdered sugar, a few too many cake plates, sippy cups and my pink mixer. My vintage stove and pink mixer tie for my favorites, my stove isn't energy efficient I am sure but that thing means business. I saw a new tv commercial about a new stove top that boils water in 90 seconds I guarantee mine beats that! You don't have to go above a 3 to boil or fry on my stove. This can be good or bad depending on who is cooking here, guest usually won't brave it! I am used to it now but newbies always want to crank it up to 10 and I think that might melt my house! Well enough for now, enjoy your weekend I hope you are enjoying some yummy treats!

Happy Birthday to your Mama, mine did the same thing when we were living at home. She was a self made cake decorator, we would have 1/2 doll cakes with the most beautiful dresses~ I never had a barbie doll growing up, so this was the next best thing..lol.. until everyone ate my dolls dress!
How in the world did I miss you on my "Favorite Blogs"? I would love to add you, if you agree~
