Where Have I Been?

The past week has been very busy to say the least! I worked all week to get ready for the kick off to Apple Blossom here in Winchester for the Wine & Fine Arts Festival in old town. It was lots of work but, we pulled it off. Here is one picture of the booth but if you want to see more click on the cherry blossom picture or ttp://www.plateitupinwinchester.blogspot.com/.

My friend Julie joined me and sold yummy treats along with her beautiful bags, baby clutches and aprons. I was also next door to one of my other neighbors who sold beautiful sterling silver bracelets. We had a good time and got some good laughs together. Hope everyone is enjoying the warm / HOT weather. Somehow I don't think our AC is keeping up!

Our baby shower was fun and our mother-to-be on #2 was very happy! Our friend Rebecka is expecting a baby girl in just a couple of weeks (if not sooner for her sake!). She has an adorable little boy named Danny who is looking forward to being a big brother! I think I saw this idea on another friends website a while ago but, thought I would give it an attempt. I probably could of used more strawberries but, I think it turned out great for the first attempt. I ended up putting fresh pineapple and cantalope along the bottom of the platter as well. The chocolate fountain was a big hit and the kids waited some-what patiently until the party ended before attempting to dip the last strawberries and pretzels in the fountain.

Here are a few shots. Good luck Rebecka!

PS - Thanks for all the help to Gail and Jo for making the shower a success!
