Pink Saturday Baking and a Mailing

I haven't been able to participate in Pink Saturday for a while but I do like to visit other participants.

Those of you who follow my blog know that Beverly from How Sweet The Sound the gracious host of Pink Saturday won my Giveaway last week which was 1 dozen of my decorated sugar cookies.  You can see more at my Etsy shop SweetCreations by Judi.
Beverly told me her favourite colours were yellow and of course PINK I thought it would be only fitting to participate THIS Saturday.
Its been a busy Pink kind of week actually.  I baked cookies...decorated pink ones for a little baby girl's shower. 

It was a "Foodie" type of shower and the request was for teapots....

I packaged some of the teapots because they will be favours guests will take home...

and cupcakes some with sprinkles....

and sweet little cakes....

and I added an extra cookie...a  Pink Carriage.

I also made some Cake Pops for another event..see there are some pink ones...

and I  baked Beverly's cookies which are going into the mail on Saturday.  Which leads me to the next subject.

I have to tell you U.S. postal service is quicker AND less expensive than in Canada.   We take advantage of U.S. postal service when we order online.  When I go to the Rockledge cottage in NY State each weekend I never know what someone in my family has ordered that I'll be taking back across the border.

I've been greeted with a huge dog crate, gun holsters (for my policeman son), Wii games, book on how to build a bat house, tape for taping the doberman's ears, batteries for whatever, military sleeping bags, a fancy shaver, camping stoves to name a few.....

Now I wanted to show you what Beverly won at my Giveaway...Pink.....well...I CAN'T show you right now because she might be peeking...but I can show you the outside of the box and the PINK on it which will go into the mail tomorrow morning.  I hope you enjoy your cookies Beverly.

I hope you all enjoy your weekend....Judi xoxo

Giveaway Winner!!!!

We have a Giveaway winner!!

I printed out all the comments.....Abby watched (I dragged the printer out to the laptop) ....

...taped them in the order they were received, added the 2nd or 3rd comments of friends who said they were followers or had posted about my Giveaway..

I numbered them 1-40...

The Random Generator spewed a number....

I smiled....and turned over the Mosaic Mirror...

and wrote on it to a dear blogging friend who won....

The Random Generator had chosen #4....


it had chosen my dear blogging friend Julie from "ASucculentLife" who lives in Florida. She has beautiful succulent plants some of which I've never seen before. She loves her Sharpies and loves her grandbabies dearly. If you haven't visited Julie you'll have fun there. Congratulations. I hope you enjoy the goodies in my Giveaway.


....but I do wish I could send something to all my lovely blogging friends

for you help brighten my day and my way of life. *hugs*..... Judi xoxo

(Julie email me your address)

My Giveaway Winner is.....

After a weekend of no internet service, Abby and I were finally ready to draw the winner for our Giveaway.....

but Abby wasn't so ready. Her actions clearly said "mama I'm too busy right now"... see her busy little pink tongue?

" Mama....I'm just to sleepy right now.."

Ladies.... don't cheat...stay with me now...

So I had to set up the Number Generator all by my lonesome and enter numbers from 1-56

Hit SEND and ....

up came "52"

It could be no other Patti than the sweetie from Treasure Barn. Patti is a dear blogging friend. She makes beautiful ATC cards and swaps lovely packages with her swap friends. If you haven't visited this talented lady be sure to visit her and tell her hi from Judi.

That was fun for me but I do wish I had something for everyone...

Hope you have a lovely evening... Judi xoxo
