I was looking through my photos from the last month and noticed a theme: Pictures of food, and the memories they are forever connected with.

First off this is the beet cake with beet cream cheese frosting, it sounded weird enought that I had to try it, and I just happened to have 3 beets left from the garden. It looked great ,but the cake ended up being a bit dry and a little dissapointing. Good thing I have family near by to help me eat my experiments.
Thank-you to all who were brave enough to eat this even when I said there was a secret ingredient.

Lindonberry? cheese cake at Nena's Coffee shop in Minneapolis.
My first ever trip by myself to the big city to visit my super duper friend Naomi.
The little bit of scary driving was so worth it!
Being there for April, Sipping coffee,
Melted Ice sculptures , the fire parade, Jubilee Church and a dear friend to tell all my secrets to.

Mmmmm breakfast.... Cinnamon rolls fresh out of the oven with a bit of butter , gently cooked scrambled eggs and milky coffee.
I made overnight cinnamon rolls for our two mystery guests from the Northwestern Choir.
They came to give a concert at our church ,and they were looking for places to spend the night.
I was nervous ,but for no reason . Our two girls were so easy going and lovable! the perfect way to get us started on our way to being great hostess's.
Thank-you Taylor and Erica.
May we meet again someday.
Cinnamon rolls the next day with a bit more butter ,and some Cold milk.
Okay now after writing this I'm hungry again. How bout you?
