Peanut Butter Frosting...oh yes, I said it... :)Frosting!

I found a fantastic (looking) recipe last week for Peanut Butter Frosting that was supposed to not be very sweet, but excellent & fluffy...how could this be, I thought?!?! Well, tonight I decided to try said frosting...and let me me just say that I can completely attest to its extreme yumminess!!! The best thing about this frosting is that it's been mounded upon 2 dozen Devil's Food cake cupcakes - and that lovely double dozen will help my co-workers & I get through tomorrow with all smiles!

Goodnight all; wishing you mounds of sweet dreams of frosting! :)

Motivation - a welcome friend!

Motivation is quite an interesting thing...and sometimes, even more interesting is the lack thereof. After months of clutter growing on my table(s) (yes, plural) I finally found the motivation to clean & throw away! What was my motivating factor, you might ask...ironically, watching an episode of the show Horders...yikesaby!!!

I am in no way a hoarder, but I was reminded that those houses filled with amazing amounts of clutter didn't get that way in one day or one year. So, I got off my duff & went to work! It seems to be the everyday, mundane things that require more motivation...but those creative & new things are enough motivation on their own.

A perfect example is my new-found obsession with knitting...I can't seem to stop...which I'm hoping will make me some money one day! Anyway, no matter what the avenue, thankfully somehow, motivation was both a welcome & unexpected visitor today!

Word of the day....Motivate!!!
