Happy Mothers Day!

Happiness of the Heart

I wish I'd lived there

The book club I belong to recently finished reading Anne of Green Gables. I wish I'd lived in that magical place and time.

Yes, I know it is a made up story, but Prince Edward Island is real and L.M. Montgomery's flourishing depictions left me longing to have lived there. I also would very much have loved to be friends with Anne Shirley. What a delightful character! A true friend, a firm believer (and make-believer) and fiercely loyal to her family. What a lovely thought....




Several years ago I watched the mini series featuring Megan Fallows on PBS. I loved it so much that I bought the videos (okay, maybe it was more than several years ago). I think it's time to drag them out and give them another whirl.

Anne of Green Gables...definitely stuff i heart.

Cupcakes in a jar

Cupcakes???? In a jar??? Are you serious???



I saw these little beauties yesterday while poking around here. I suppose I should order some to make sure that I truly do heart them...right?

I am, for sure, going to order some for birthday gifts for friends though. What a clever, unique gift! I'll be the best friend ever, and that's something to heart too...

Yummy Baked Goods

I love a yummy baked good. Gimme chocolate croissants, maple long johns, brownies....okay, just about anything from a bakery.

Imagine my sheer joy when my love of baked goods and quilting miraculously came together with this darling website.


You can "cook" to your hearts content...no calories involved!

Busy mom's helper

Keeping track of the life a busy mom is tough.

There are lots of planners around, but I really heart this one from WeekDate. I especially heart the green one...being Irish and all.


They've got several other great covers and even one that you can hang on the wall when you really need room...like if you had six kids or something.
