Quotes Tuesday

I didn't do ANY baking OR blogging this weekend, and it's making me feel rather empty inside. I started on a project that involves scraping off 90 year old wall paper that has been painted over....let me tell you, it's NOT an easy task. 4 hours with 2 people and we only finished one wall! I plan to blog about that adventure when it's all done, but with the patching, sanding, scraping and painting, it might take awhile.

To help fill this blogging void, here are some quotes to enjoy (and a couple pictures I took a few years ago at The Botanic Gardens). I promise, I will be back soon with more recipes and how-to's!
