Emma's best friend Hayden is over for lunch today while her mom is volunteering at the bake sale at school. The girls are baking brownies in the Easy Bake Oven and having a ball. It smells good!
I've had one of those weeks where I've felt busy but am not really sure what I've accomplished. One thing I've planned to do each and every day this week is to finish making changes on a book proposal. I really need to get this done and plan to work on it this afternoon, but thought I'd check in first...I haven't fallen off the planet!

Hi Joanne, I tried to leave a comment earlier but for some reason it didn't show up. Hmm... I must have deleted it. Anyways, thanks for sharing your list with us. It's always fun to learn something new about a fellow blogger. I am going to join in too but I will post it on my blog. Have a great weekend.

You worked at the Flying W Ranch? My family loved that place. Okay, okay - I didn't quite love it as much as they did.
Now I'm missing Colorado.
