Heidi Borchers taught this amazing class in her awesome studio filled with all kinds of tiles, beads, baubles...you name it she had it. My inspiration was my grandparents China that was broken many years ago and has been hanging around taking up space.

So, when I received a message from a friend from one of my former lives that she and her husband were going to be in town I looked forward to their visit. She mentioned they were celebrating her birthday early so I went into The Party Girl mode. I knew I had zucchini in my garden so I whipped up some yummy zucchini cupcakes. I can't do ordinary so I got out a tiered server, added paper crinkles and some flowers from my yard to make the little celebration special. Don't wait for a special day do a little something out of the ordinary everyday!</div></div>Joan Martin Feehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00695827452466086888noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2796442298432651308.post-90181419285019036722013-08-12T07:21:00.001-07:002013-08-12T07:21:41.112-07:00Day of BountyI finished my day off with fresh green beans from my garden and a ramekin filled with a juicy peach cobbler.

If you have a wedge corer/slicer it speeds up the process. Place inpot and add a little water. Cook until desired consistency, adding water as necessary. You're done!

<br />
How many times have you heard that little negative voice in your head ? It happened to me this morning but I powered through it. <br />
<br />
My resistance started last week when I received an email from Elaine LaLanne's assistant. You remember Jack LaLanne, the famous health guru? I had made arrangements for Elaine LaLanne, Jack's wife, to do a presentation at a club I belong to. It was a wonderful experience going to their home to pick up gifts she had for the attendees, hearing her speak (AMAZING!) and then last week, I was asked to write a quote that would appear on the new Jack LaLanne website (me? really?) I was really honored but with that came pressure to say just the right thing. You know what I did? Instead of sitting here paralyzed, I just jumped in and did it! The more we think about the things we don't want to do, the more time we waste and who knows where taking that little step will lead. Like they say, one bite at a time, one baby step, one word at a time. Make whatever you're resisting happen today!<br />
