Year of the Dragon


Happy New Year! Okay, I realize it was only twenty-two days ago that I blogged in the New Year, but I assure you:

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year or Chinese New Year. The Year of the Dragon - the Water Dragon, to be exact. 

Baby Bump Chocolate Cookies


My dear friend Kimberley and her husband, Ken, are expecting their first child!! Needless to say, I am ecstatic for them both, as I know that they will be amazing parents.
