The only one who can tell you 'you can't' is you. And you don't have to listen. - Nike

Hope you had a wonderful weekend!

I was home alone all week, so did what I wanted, when I wanted to.

Ok, there were limits! The grass got mowed, the seldom used appliance cupboard got cleaned, I sold some stuff on a local Buy, Sell, Trade on Facebook, I went to Peace River for an evening, went to a retirement party, watched within the last half hour of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (then the cable lost signal), and Sunday supper was early so everyone could go to the Demolition Derby!
It's rodeo time!

I also made these.......

BROWNIE BOWL SUNDAES (a brilliant dessert hack!)

http://todaysmama.com/2014/07/brownie-bowl-sundaes/

Ingredients:
- Your favorite ice cream
- Your favorite brownie recipe
- Your favorite toppings

Spray cups of a muffin tin with cooking spray, and add brownie batter to each cup until they're about two-thirds full.

Spray the second muffin tin with cooking spray and place on top of the first tin of brownies.

Bake!

Not sure what went wrong, but we usually eat our mistakes!!!

I needed a card to make up for skipping one for an occasion earlier this year!
It had to be awesome...............

I made a Never Ending Card!

OMG........I printed the instructions out in black & white.
Then in color.
And at Step 7, I had to watch the video.
3 nights of starting, and not getting anywhere; I. Got. It!
After that is was FUN!
Not sure how many I will make, but I finished it tonight.

I know the picture quality isn't great!

This is the front..........

 
Next.......

 
And then.........

 
Last one........

 
Hopefully I'll be forgiven!
 
I'd like to get in a few challenges this week; not sure how that will work out!
It's forest fire season..........
It was soooo hot last week, we didn't work on the House in town!
We're back to the grind tomorrow!
 
I DID get my firepit furniture painted!
 
Hope you're well!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!
 
PS:
This is turning into the "Never Ending Post",

That is one epic fail I would have liked to try, too! Looks yummy! And what a stunning card... I should check it out as one last attempt to get back my mojo here, lost sonce December...

Your goodies look just yummy! Your card is fabulous. I took a class (years ago when I first started making cards) in making this never-ending card. Mine turned out terrible, I said I'd never try it again! But you succeeded marvelously with the technique, and just by following printed instructions! I AM IMPRESSED! The colors are wonderful together, and you can give yourself a huge pat on the back for doing such a super card that is not easy to make! Glad you had a wkend to do some 'Me' things, that's always lovely & refreshing. TFS & Hugs

I made one of those cards before, and like you, I had to watch the video a bunch of times too!!! Confusing to say the least! I think your brownie bowls are still fab. Perhaps you needed to add more mix per cup?? I hope you're having a great week!
