The best job ever and the coolest friends that I ever had were when I worked at a restaurant called the Heartthrob Cafe. It was in downtown St Paul, Minnesota and was so fun! Today we had a get together to catch up and reminisce. This is one of the many good things about facebook, finding people that you wished you never lost contact with. So, today my post is the buttons that I made for this event. We had 'flair' that was a lot more fun and cool than a restaurant chain that I will not name here. We danced and sang birthday songs. The girls wore poodle skirts and we did all of this while wearing in line skates. We were a crazy family and honestly this was one of the best times in my life. Ahhh...memories. In the time spent there somehow the button machine came into my possession. In honor of our gathering, of course I had to make pins. Here are also two murals that I painted at the restaurant. Let me tell you they were tricky! The murals are on glass and when
Yesterday, my sister in law sent me a text message about my niece wanting to paint and bake with me today. No problem! I didn't have to work and it's fun having kids around the house. I actually ended up with my niece and a friend of hers they are both great kids and awesome little helpers. First they put on aprons and then got started. The first thing we did was make chocolate chip cookies and once they were in the oven the girls painted. They came up periodically to scoop a new batch or to take the finished ones off of the cookie sheet. They resumed painting and after a while wanted to bake more so we made banana bread. I think they had fun and I enjoyed having them here. I am posting some of their work and also a small painting that I recently did. ;)
