Well Hello there.. 

We are back from vacation.. 

I got sick the first night.. not fair.. 

But when we got back my husband got me some of our favorite soup.. 

yumm..

It was perfect weather out in Palm Desert.. 

Perfect for swimming.. and lounging by the pool.. 

Trying to catch up on some of my magazine reading.. 

While we were there I had some amazing pasta 

with eggplant that just melted in your mouth amazingness

so I was inspired when I got home.. 

and made my first Eggplant Gratin..

So Delicious.. 

Now I'm working on the banner for my son's birthday party..

Everyone need's a birthday banner!

Happy Thursday!

*Love Banner*

So I realize that Valentine's Day has come and past.. but I'm extending the love with my new love-banner-hangy-thing.. I got the idea while making my mini albums.. and really this didn't take much time at all... I love the little heart brads that are really holding it all together =)

Oh.. P.s.  excuse the messy closet.. I work in chaos..
