My broken heart!
I am not sure how to write this post. So much I would like to say, but it is difficult to find the right words. Some of you may know about how our dachshund Tiny has been dealing with some neurological issues for the last six months. She was doing so well, that we thought the worst was over.

Hobby Lobby Copy
As I was looking at it, I remembered that I had purchased a watering can a while back. Maybe I could make it over.

Mango Pound Cake
Although I used fresh mangoes in my pound cake, you could use frozen mangoes. The mangoes made the cake very moist. I put a buttermilk frosting on it, but you could also just sprinkle it with powdered sugar.

Pineapple Mango Salsa
The first thing I had to make was salsa. We love our salsas and mango is my favorite. I was so lucky that one of our pineapples was also ripe. It is so wonderful to make fresh food from your own fruits. It doesn't get any better than that.

Decorating with Red
Hello
everyone. I am Alice and I am a blogger at Yorkshire Linen. I like to
experiment with home decor and interior decorating. Since childhood, I
liked doing DIYs and finding new ways to make my home look beautiful.
You can contact me here.
Red Cushions: For a Pretty Bedroom
Red is an unusual colour: one of the three primary colours and therefore used widely in d̩cor, art and fashion, but it is not a popular favorite colour. Therefore using red in d̩cor can help your rooms to stand out from the crowd, creating a warm haven for your family and friends Рor yourself, should you decide to use it in your bedroom.

3 Ingredient Tuna Spread
Now don't let the fact that this is made with tuna fish turn you off. Most people don't even know that it contains tuna fish. They always ask "what is in this?" It is a quick and easy spread that goes great on crackers. My favorite is triscuits.

Heart Vase Holder
Memorial weekend is ready to begin and we are trying to get the deck ready for company and cookouts. Why is it that we always seem to finally finish those projects that we have been putting off until right before we are supposed to have company? I don't know about you, but I seem to do that a lot. It gives me that extra push I needed.
As we started to prepare for cleaning the deck, as usual, I wanted to add some additional decor and this heart vase holder was one of them.

Refreshing Mangoladas
This drink came about a couple of years ago when we were out by the pool and wanted something refreshing. My husband went in to make us a drink. When he went into the freezer we had many packages of mangoes and decided to use them and this drink was created - Mangoladas

Mallards in the Pool?
My daughter and her best friend came for Easter and are enjoying the weather. We were out on the deck and her friend said "you have ducks swimming in your pool". How cute! I said, "no we don't".

Easter Mini Basket Favors
I wanted to make some little Easter baskets to place on the table for the kids. I had already made Crocheted Candle Holder favors for the adults. If you missed that post, you can see it here.
I found these mini Chinese take-out boxes at the Dollar Store and thought they would be perfect. They were so colorful and spring like.

Chocolate Ganache-filled Macaroons
It seems like for ever since I wrote a post. I admire all of you that post everyday or almost everyday. Our Tiny has been such a focus for me and when she takes a turn for the worst, it is hard to deal with. She requires so much of my time. They have no idea why she is fine and then it starts all over again. So back to the hospital she goes today.
So what does Tiny have to do with Chocolate Ganache-filled Macaroons. Absolutely nothing. I had some extra time this week (wow, what a treat!) and since I haven't sent in goodies to my husband's work, I thought I would do a little baking.
