Cupcakes, bows and games

Did you know that Crave had muffins as well as cupcakes?  Me either.  But I can assure you that I will be a staple at that place from now on.  I mean, it’s a muffin, not a cupcake.

My friend Shea came over to visit today and brought me muffins, otherwise known as breakfast cupcakes.  They were so good, I ate them before she had been in the house for ten minutes.  It’s kind of a good thing that she told me that they were for both of us because I would have started picking at hers too.  I highly recommend the gingerbread and lemon blueberry ones.

I have vented quite a bit to her about hand me downs. I have no problem with hand me downs, it’s just the manner in which I receive them.  Like bags full of dirty clothes or broken toys.  Always accompanied by the statement, “throw them away if you don’t like them.”  Cause that’s my job.

If Shea brings me hand me downs, I am fine.  Baby Z now has a basket full of bows that her daughter never even used.  Goose has a new bathing suit and new shirts and my favorite: educational stuff.  Workbooks, magazines and a new game that focuses on spatial reasoning and fine motor skills.  Love it.  Reminds me of Perfection when I was a kid.  This game was practically brand new.  Baby Hulk and I played it nonstop for at least thirty minutes.  Totally counts as school!

Best of all, I was able to spend time with a friend I don’t see nearly enough.  Shea is married to one of Lance’s best friends.  She was in the picture long before me.  We’re lucky that we like each other so much.  Despite the mutual admiration, we don’t see each other but a few times a year.  Now that she’s seen how sweet Baby Z is I am sure she’ll be dying to see me more often.

    Cecily & I love the hand me downs from you Nicole! Clothes are in perfect condition & like new & so DAMN cute! Thank you once again 😉 from all of us.

  2. From Nicole:

    You are welcome, Denise. I was more than happy to give clothes that we have loved. I had a fond time going through them as I sorted them out. I remember the boys in every outfit. And I still have a few more outfits!

    My hand me downs have come in the form of large garbage bags full of dirty clothes. Not quite as organized as what I did for E and C!

    You need to get over to Revival and get some of the Fluff Bake Bar cupcakes.

  4. From Nicole:

    I love those. She takes care of me when she visits the station. Even tells Lance certain ones are for me. Thank God, otherwise they wouldn’t make it home.
