It’s been a difficult week for me, being I have THE worst head cold. I’m usually over this kind of thing in a day or two, but it’s going on 6 so I’m totally over it. My sister-in-law gave birth to their second baby girl and I’ve been dying to get over there but I don’t want to spread germs. I also have a gift for them, but haven’t been able to finish it because I can’t bring myself to leave the house for more supplies! So, the next post will have the fun details about the gift I crafted. I hope you can find some inspiration in it as well so stay tuned. For now….
If you’ve been following then you already know I was hired to style and coordinate a country themed baby shower. It’s been months now that I’ve been collecting country style things not to mention bookmarking everything I see that inspires me for this shower. I admit, my bookmark folder is about to explode. lol So, I’ve compiled a lot of those images and here’s my inspiration board. All of these are fantastic examples of things I can draw inspiration from. So much talent out there…

In preparation for the sweets table, I’ve been testing recipes and I came across a cookie recipe in a cookbook I got for my birthday, “All Cakes Considered” by Melissa Gray. It’s a really fun book, even if she says it’s for beginners. I really appreciate the photography, layout and design. The cookies just so happened to be called “Cowboy Cookies” – how perfect! They’re a mix between chocolate chip and oatmeal cookies. Yum!!!! I made them Monday night and they are really, really tasty, while a bit too crunchy for me, though I’m not sure it’s such a problem. 🙂
So that’s the latest. Stay tuned for more!
