There was a party in blogland.....oooh and a GIVE-AWAY!!

Me and Aaron have a habit of closing places...always we're the last ones at a restaurant while the wait staff gathers in a corner, rolling their eyes when we order dessert thus keeping them even longer. Always us and friends will be the last people sitting in the theater after the movie credits have long run out. Aaron and his pals once even over stayed the time limit at a wake!...In other words, we're those people who don't get out much and when we finally do, we get a little buzzed on sugar and conversation and stay out til 4am! So it's fitting that we'd be the last to join Artsy Mama's Artful Blogger Party. Kari is this great ball of creative energy bouncing around blogland, linking all of us together. She's always right on the pulse of all that's cool in art and life. So we wish we coulda joined the party earlier, but I think we had paint to elbows and were in no state to entertain or be entertained.  So at least we're showing up with a gift. This little 4 x 4 retro baking gal plaque is made from some favorite papers, vintage recipe book clippings, and a downsized print of our original painting of a gorgeous girl preparing a fresh batch of golden cupcakes. She goes to one lucky winner who posts a comment on this entry, with only one specification: I'd love to know what your favorite thing to bake is. I don't need a full recipe. I just love to here what people love bake. So that's it, just drop a little line with your fave baking project and make sure to leave me your email and or blog link. I'll put all the names in my favorite mixing bowl and pick one winner by Sunday night...and knowing me, probably LATE Sunday night! Well, anyway, Big thanks to Kari Artsymama for being so darn cool and for making our corner of blogland such a close knit community!! Go over to her blog now for an endless supply of all the links that count, the party continues!

lots of love to all of you lovelies!!!
