~Treat Yourself To Something Sweet~

Over the weekend, I made some cupcakes for some friends.
I love chocolate cupcakes especially 
with some edible glitter on top!
With all the inspirational blogs I've seen lately,
I wanted a little bit of Autumn in the house.
I love my new Princess Owl.
I think she would like a little sweet treat too!
 One little bite wouldn't hurt...
I made a fresh strawberry, avocado and corn salad for dinner.
So refreshing!!
And a little bit of heaven,
Croque Monsieur.
I went to a French restaurant with my friends, Tami and Mary. 
I loved it so much, I had to try making it.
I found Ina Garten's recipe on the Food Network site.
It was delicious.
I can imagine how pretty Paris is right now.
The leaves must be falling everywhere.
So I collected some today and thought of a Charming French Cafe.

  3. Jody, it's very, very dangerous to come visit your blog! Now I must make chocolate cake or cupcakes. The salad, the Croque Monsieur...my mouth is watering.
    And the little princess owl made me smile!

  9. Hi Jody and Stan. Those cupcakes look so good and I remember watching Ina make the Croque Monsieur on her show. Tonight I am making her chicken pot pie recipe. I love to watch her. She is so soothing I think. Our kids live in Soquel and our grandson is planning on going to UCSC next year. He is finishing up at Cabrillo this year. It is such a small world. Thanks for you kind comments to me and I will be joining you again this Friday..Happy Wednesday..Judy

  10. Love the edible glitter! I am going to definitely hunt that down. All of the pictures were beautiful -- and that salad sounds amazing. I love salads with fruit in them.
