Fed up with rain!!

Ok so it has poured ALL stinkin day today and it is dark and gloomy!! I NEED THE SUNSHINE!!! where the heck is it??
So I made 5 of the pumpkin rolls today and cut one up in slices to sell individually at market tomorrow. It is supposed to be cold and rainy tomorrow but hopefully not too bad!!
I also made a pecan brittle that turned out great!! I used some salted toasted pecans and then pumpkin pie spice in it instead of just cinnamon and boy what a flavor!! yummo
Also made up some more frosted punkin sugar cookies and some cutesy bear face/head cookies I will take a pic of them they are way too cute to eat! Mand M for eyes and nose and some fall sprinkles on their ears. I think i will do some of them for the fall shows on a stick for the kiddies. Oh and did a big ol batch of apple butter so the kitchen smelled so good with the apples and cinnamon cooking!! I will have to make some biscuits tonight for supper so I can enjoy some of the butter on them. LOL

Well better go out and do chores it looks like the rain has let up a bit ! YEAH

This is my pendant :bakery princess: but i did make a few to sell now. On the back it says "she wants to make her cake and eat it too!!" LOL yep that is soooooooo me!~!

This started out as a store bought framed mini pic filled with silk flowers and ribbon, so i took it apart!!! painted, sanded, and lightly antiqued the frame it is soft pink color now, added a layered paper flower and stamped the word cherish on the bottom. In the inside I added a captured fairy some decorative patterned papers, the definition of the word cherish a couple of pastely pink flowers and moss for the fairy to stand in. I think this turned out so cool it hangs from pink ribbons. This will go in my etsy shoppe today.
