Sweet Melisa

My dear "italian sister," Melisa, just found out the sex of their second child... A GIRL!!! I am so excited for Melisa and her husband!!! Plus, I can't wait to make some over-the-top creations for this baby girl!!!

Melisa's family will always be near and dear to my heart... When I lived in Atlantic City, they always watched out for me and loved me as if I were one of their own children! Melisa and I worked in the same classroom at Children's and they invited me to work in their store on the Ocean City boardwalk.

We miss them terribly and I can't wait to put boxes in the mail to her...

Yummy treat

Yesterday evening, Mr. Rondeau and I took Goosie and Boomer out to dinner and ran some errands.

When we arrived home, there was a bag hanging on our door.

These Mandarin Oranges were in the bag!

Our friend, Miss Daniela, left them on our door...

Some went in the fridge for lunch the next day... and some just had to be put in my favorite glass vase!

We had some for lunch... I don't think the others will remain in the vase for long...

These oranges are delicious...

As sweet as the surprise!
