Ever the kind hearted and hard working Amanda created the Totes of Hope organization which gives much needed items to people in need. She united people in her community to contribute items and money. I made  cards and a box for sweet Amanda when she sent out thank you cards to people that contributed.

Scripture Tag #29

Be kind & compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
Ephesians 4:23
Last week the message at church was on forgiveness. The speaker said it means to lay it down, let it go and leave it alone. It is not approval, not pardoning, not denying and not forgetting.

Chick Cake Pops

HL made these adorable chick cake pops. The directions are in the Cake Pops book by Bakerella.

The little chicks were too cute for me to bite into. I am a vegetarian after all. I had to try one that wasn't decorated. They were surprisingly tasty. I loved the lemon flavor.
