Hey, friends!  I have another recipe to share with you.  It was the first try and it was really yum!
I did not think to take an up close picture of the dessert, so this picture is really so I can show off two of my favorite guys in my life!  But seriously, the dessert was a big hit - all gone, too.  No more.

Ingredients:
2 pkg (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
1/2 tsp. vanilla

1 chocolate pie crust (6 oz)

Oreo Cheesecake directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  In a large bowl beat cream cheese until smooth.  Gradually mix in vanilla, sugar, milk, and whipping cream.  Mix until smooth.

Sister's Birthday Gift

I just had to do Mark's idea - and he helped me - to make a gift for Nancy for her birthday.  I had seen this little poem about growing up with a sister and thought it was perfect.  So we went to several thrift stores looking for the perfect sized canvas picture and after only two stops - found it! This is the canvas with the letters I stuck on it and I began there in the bottom corner to paint it a dark brown.  The canvas is a golden with thin trees and some words in cursive in a light brown.   As you see, I was using a paint brush, but I changed to a small roller.  It worked much much better. Completely painted the top and the sides of the canvas a brown color.  Then I let it dry - probably about 30 minutes.  Then pealed off the letters! Here is the finished product: And it's true.  I did tell on her - it was for her own good. :) 

Woo Hoo!

  So excited that Christmas is coming!  I love the atmosphere of all the love and giving.  I'm in the painting mode for a Christmas craft sale I'm a part of with my new friends. (We have moved to Georgia this past summer.) Here is just the beginning.....for some reason I am all about the Snowfriends. I've made small ones and large porch sitters.  The small signs and Snowfriends will look cute on your three tiered tray or on a shelf.
