This and That Thursday: Roses and Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats!

June 7, 2012 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 4 Comments

How is your week going? Mine is a little nuts, it has been filled with all sorts of crazy things, but also lots of great things. Aside from work and all the other stuff going on in my life I am taking another Blog class for the next four weeks, so please pardon my posts, they may be a little sporadic.

I am taking a class with Holly Becker of Decor8 and already I have “met” many new bloggers and learned a few new things and we are only in the first two days! Although the class is filled and closed to new students,  Holly does offer it twice a year and I encourage you to take it if you are looking for motivation, photography tips, information on publishing and writing a book and so much more.

Anyway, in addition to that I am trying some new recipes and a few things I have learned from a photo class. Although I have a really fabulous camera I actually prefer a point and shoot.  I would love to learn to take fabulous food photos, especially as those seem to be my most popular posts. But Rome was not built in a day and there are only 24 hours so I have to take my time.

Are you up to anything exciting? Are you trying some new recipes or some old standbys? I love to hear about new things, especially if they are sweet. So, if you have something do send me a link.

I hope you have a great day!

If you are looking for something quick and easy to make that has chocolate, peanut butter, peanut butter cups and marshmallows than come over to Once Upon a Chocolate Life and try this!

“Learn to love and appreciate the good in others “Learn to love and appreciate the good in others.” Good afternoon friends, it’s the last day of February, which is called heart month, not only for Valentine’s Day but for heart health as well. Just because we are turning the calendar page doesn’t mean we should forget that A). We should love and appreciate each other and B). To take care of our hearts! Did you know that heart disease is the leading cause of death in women? Ladies if you don’t take care of yourself no one else can, eat right and get moving, cardio vascular exercise is great for your heart! Have a great day! #heart #hearthealth #vintagestyle #love #heartshaped #scrabbletiles #handmade #handcarved

“Chocolate is health food for the soul”~Mirand “Chocolate is health food for the soul”~Miranda Gray.

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping up from the ground, bright and colorful flowers in the garden center the weather and the calendar tell me otherwise. So I am hunkering down and taking solace inside enjoying the details of a collected home and life. This tapestry is a piece that we purchased over 25 years ago in Paris, it hang in the dining room and makes me smile every time I see it because it reminds me of such a happy and beautiful place. What do you collect? What brings you joy in your home? #collectedhome #collectedlook #homedecor #myhome #homesweethome #interiordesign #frenchprovincial #france #frenchdecor #tapestry #instahome #instahomedecor #acolectedlife #collection
Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. How is it in your “neck of the woods?” We took a long road-trip a few weeks ago to the beautiful @colonialwmsburg . I love this place, there is so much to see and do and even wearing masks and social distancing you can still enjoy the history and the beauty of this living museum. Today I am home doing the weekend chores, and of course doing a little baking. I hope that you have a fabulous weekend. #colonialwilliamsburg #williamsburg #colonialhouse #livinghistory #livinghistorymuseum #museum #winterfun #roadtrip #wanderlust #weekend #weekendvibes #weekendmood

“If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~ “If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~Percy Bysshe Shelly  my answer to that is I hope not! This has been a strange winter and I am sure that for the 4 million people without power in19 states they are hoping spring is sooner rather than later. I hope that you are all well and keeping safe. I’m praying for all of you without power and heat and hope it is restored soon. #pinkaesthetic #art #acrylicpainting #painting #details #artistsoninstagram #artwork #artworld #color #artoftheday #quote #quoteoftheday #quotestoliveby #artofinstagram
