~ Calendar of Hope 2009 ~
.
13 Original Dishcloth Patterns Created to Raise Awareness and Money for Breast Cancer Research
.
.

.
This is our Calendar of Hope for 2009 which I am honoured to be a part of. This all started from a little thought Cindy (aka, FitterKnitter) had to create a Breast Cancer Awareness Calendar to sell to raise money for breast cancer research and it snowballed from there into this beautiful work of art! Cindy has done such a beautiful job with this calendar. I am so proud to be a part of it!

Below you can find my contribution to the calendar, "Little Praying Cherub". It was a lot of fun working with so many wonderful people on this project. Thanks so much Cindy for this opportunity!

This Calendar is available for purchase on KnitPink.com. It is being offered as an instant pdf download and all proceeds made from this calendar go to Breast Cancer Research. Thank you so much for checking it out :o)

Chocolate Cake For Breakfast?
.
It's Hubby's Birthday today...poor guy had to start back at work today after being laid off for most of the Summer. There is never anything this man wants or needs...he's just happy with what he's got...he's always more than happy to plan little surprises for me and the kids though...he always takes great pride in providing for his family. He's just a simple kinda guy, doesn't like a big fuss made on his special day, unlike me...I thouroughly enjoy feeling special and being surprised and spoiled rotten on my day!
.
So I thought the least I could do is bake the man a cake...no candles but of course there will HAVE to be icing! I decided to surprise him with a chocolate cake when he gets home...not even the kids know that I'm making Dad a cake, so really, I could eat this whole thing today if I wanted to and no one would ever know...LOL!
.
Check out my little Baking Assistant, Molly...I think she is loving the smell of Chocolate in the air as well! This is gonna take a lot of will power for me not to eat this ALL DAY LONG! That must mean that I'll have earned myself a HUGE piece of cake at the end of the day though for being so good by resisting it throughout the day! I'll keep ya posted :o)
