Baking & blossoming update!

Last night was the night-o-baking at our house. I was able to make 3 desserts, watch Grey's Anatomy and be in bed by 10:30pm. Not bad, huh? Well, no, not really because the recipe I used was fairly simple, thus the reason I chose it. It made for a fun, relaxing evening. I found the recipe here so feel free to check it out along with other yummy/simple Thanksgiving recipes.


On a side-note, I decided to catch everyone up on Ava our avocado plant. As a reference, here she was when she was just a wee-little pit.

And here she is today. Planted in a big girl pot, sprouting for all to see. I have two other pits going and they are doing equally well. I've had a certain neighbor express his interest in Ava and her growth so I wouldn't be surprised if she were to get dressed up in a pretty bow and move homes come Christmas time! It has been really fun and neat to see that this does really work!

That's it for today. Just trying to stay connected during the busy holiday season! Off to continue getting ready for our exciting weekend trip to Fort Worth!

Ashley,
You've inspired me to try this. I have a notoriously black thumb, but I think maybe I can handle it. Your blog is so cute!
