Tulips at Forest Park near Jewel Box

These beautiful tulips make me happy. What a wonderful way to welcome Earth Day!

Spring has come

Weather has been crazy wild in St. Louis these past few months. But, this weekend was gorgeous. Spring has sprung, I think, and everything looks more beautiful and more lovely.

Cupcake Shoes

A friend sent me a picture of some shoes made out of cupcakes and cookies. She asked if I could reproduce it, so my sister and I tried our hand at making them. For design ideas, we went onto the websites for Nordstrom shoes, 6pm.com, and poeticlicence.com (my favorite London shoe brand) and spent two hours coming up with the designs. Then we spent 5 hours from 10pm to 3am to make the shoes.
