Saturday Sparks Link Party 314

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 314!

Starting off todays party with a small finish.

In the midst of busy days, I will still find time to create.

Minutes a day can quickly add up.

Before you know it, you have completed something.

I sewed this 'cupcake pinnie' in a few short bursts of time.

The pattern is from the book Pin Pals by Carrie Nelson.

That feeling of accomplishment shines through for even the smallest of projects.

Do you make time for creativity in your hurried days?

"What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Saturday Sparks Link Party 313

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 313!

Starting off todays party with a quick and easy breakfast.

I had some perfectly ripe bananas that I wanted to use up.

My first thought was the peanut butter and banana sandwich's that I favored as a kid.

Using that as my inspiration, I came up with a new 'grown up' version.

I spread almond butter on multigrain toast, added banana, shaved coconut, chia seeds and a drizzle of pure maple syrup.

My childhood memory served me well.
