It's Here! It's Here! And It's bursting with Sweet TREATS!

Just couldn't pass up the opportunity to unveil my Black Cat Pumpkin Pinata that my amazing and creative sister Shari made for me as a special birthday treat . . . and what a TREAT it was!  Filled with all kinds of my favorite candy goodies from red licorice to pixie sticks, fortune cookies to pretzels and my most favorite caramels.  Thanks again for making my 29th (hehehe) birthday so special!

The envelope please!

The photo that inspired the creation! Circa 1964 - Vintage! Wow, how time flies!

A peek inside the box!

Free from the packing peanuts! I can feel how heavy it is...full of treats!

OH, so SWEET!

A tiny peek inside!

Yep, there's the good stuff!

SWEET PERFECTION!

A Birthday Treat That Was Oh, So SWEET...The Purr-fect Pinata!

A big thanks to my sister, Shari for making an amazingly purr-fect pinata for my 29th (hehehe) birthday! Inspired by a photo of a pinata that from my birthday back in 1964
(cough, cough...really it couldn't have been that long)

she began to work her creative magic with paper mache' and made my day pretty magical as well when she sent me an email pic sharing the gift!  Needless to say I screamed with delight, clapped my hands and did the Happy Birthday dance...and that was just from seeing the photo.  hehehe!  I can hardly wait to get back home from my trip so that I can receive the treat filled pinata in person and than begin my birthday celebrating again! That is how it works, right?  

A PURR-FECTLY Sweet and Treat Filled Birthday Surprise

Thanks, Shari! I LOVE IT!

Don't Worry BEE Happy . . . or is that GRIN and BEAR it?

DON'T WORRY BEE HAPPY!

We're often told to think of the positive in everything we do

To look for the silver lining and things will work out for you.

Life is not an easy task to have to muddle through

But, with a positive attitude we'll surely have a better view.

Don't worry BEE happy we may  have been told

It's the story of GRIN and BEAR it which sometimes can get old

So I'd like offer a suggestion . . . I hope that you don't mind

When you feel a little blue and are tired of the daily grind

Take out  your jar of honey that sweetness from within

And I will guarantee before long you'll start to GRIN.

Share it with a friend or two and the smiles will surely double

Those things that gave you trouble will begin to turn to rubble.

Laugh, enjoy and share with all that's in your heart

And although things won't be perfect it will be a perfect start.

So what's this really all about . . . this don't worry BEE  happy thing

It's about living, giving, creating, even imagining . . .

That once we start to share all that we have to give

We will BEE happy because we have really started to LIVE!

Dedicated in loving memory to my Mom who knew how to truly BEE happy . . . always giving, creating and imagining . . . a true CELEBRATION of LIFE!

Happy Birthday Mom!
