Sadly, I know that&#8217;s not the case but being sick hasn&#8217;t been all bad.  I&#8217;ve taken the opportunity to work on things towards Christmas, work on cleaning out my email (never ending project there!) and to make a solid decision to work towards losing some weight. I&#8217;ve said for a long time that I was going to do it but this time I&#8217;m really looking into what I need to do and working towards doing it.<\/p>\n<p>So, the question remains&#8230;what am I finishing this week? Well, I&#8217;m going to finish up telling y&#8217;all about part of my trip to Canada. We&#8217;ll consider this hmm&#8230;Part II of III? Ready? Are you? C&#8217;mon..are you? *grins*<\/p>\n<p>Like I said before, we drove to Canada on Friday after the boys Halloween parties at their school. We didn&#8217;t get there until probably 10:30 on Friday night but our wonderful friends Rob &amp; nickle were up and waiting for us.  In fact, nickle was busy working on Rob&#8217;s costume for the party we were all going to the next night. We had a great time sitting around and talking and munching pizza and talking and sitting around and &#8230;ok, you get the point. I think it was something like 3am before we crawled into bed.  Then, we were all up by 7 the next morning!<\/p>\n<p>Why? Well, because Rob was part of the board of the group that was putting on the Artisan Faire and we all went to help setup and get everything ready.  I know that we could have slept in, but we totally didn&#8217;t mind helping out. We love getting the extra time with our friends and I think I&#8217;m just a helper by nature.<\/p>\n<p>I just have to say right now that the Artisan Faire was incredible! Every table had something new that I was going ooooh and ahhh over. I had three that were particularly yay, but I&#8217;m only going to tell you about one of them here. The other two I&#8217;m hoping to do reviews for later and need to speak to the shop owners about it. I promise that I&#8217;ll get on that as soon as I can.  Now&#8230;the one I want to tell you about&#8230;if you&#8217;re on a diet, you might not want to read anymore.<\/p>\n<p>This table was right next to Rob&#8217;s and so I got to sit and stare and drool over her things for way too long.  What is it? Do you really want to know? It was <strong style=\"font-weight: normal;\">DEE-Lectibles!<\/strong> She had the most delicious looking cookies and brownies. Oh how I lusted after those brownies.  She even had these cookies, that tasted kind of like ginger snaps, but looked like rulers! I&#8217;d love to see about getting enough of those to hand out at the kids&#8217; end of the school year parties.  Now, I do have to mention that not only were here things totally delicious looking and tasting, her prices were wonderful too!<\/p>\n<p>Ok, I know that I sound as if I&#8217;m gushing but seriously, if you&#8217;d tasted her things you&#8217;d totally agree with me. I know that some of you live in Canada and maybe even in the part that&#8217;s over there by Toronto and St. Catherines. Dee doesn&#8217;t have a website yet, but she agreed to let me give you all her email address, so please do contact her if you&#8217;re in the market for deliciousness.  And just to tempt y&#8217;all, I&#8217;m putting up these pictures so you can go mmm, awww and wow! Did I mention that if I ever get married again, I&#8217;m going to beg her to make the cake? I wonder how much it costs to import a wedding cake&#8230;<a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEgtnw6kCZDvG-eTyU4U_6CW8HajgAXVCbzPvUGhadlNlDmXCDgbIvPtPttCDcNu6Yt0Isng7nzrSaOs5wMZVGytcTpUxyoyANwqtJsUrXnYGpxiQYChtqqnhBeaJRjqXbihteb-MoUCpohl\/s1600-h\/Pumpkin+Cake.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEgtnw6kCZDvG-eTyU4U_6CW8HajgAXVCbzPvUGhadlNlDmXCDgbIvPtPttCDcNu6Yt0Isng7nzrSaOs5wMZVGytcTpUxyoyANwqtJsUrXnYGpxiQYChtqqnhBeaJRjqXbihteb-MoUCpohl\/s200\/Pumpkin+Cake.jpg\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403666329911584034\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEjAbKUSUq3NSYuXwkZKSm01168my4yOMzT-Vpi80zZETY_WqbJdhyphenhyphen7I8ky3zuV1pDjvqVDvKzHqU74zAh8AkrOgOxowuwks1Zsa9DFVGMdv04Zik8y2542ALkN1bMmeWnkL77oYXoaBF3Od\/s1600-h\/DSCN3253.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEjAbKUSUq3NSYuXwkZKSm01168my4yOMzT-Vpi80zZETY_WqbJdhyphenhyphen7I8ky3zuV1pDjvqVDvKzHqU74zAh8AkrOgOxowuwks1Zsa9DFVGMdv04Zik8y2542ALkN1bMmeWnkL77oYXoaBF3Od\/s200\/DSCN3253.JPG\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403665719879745186\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEia5MHVdFUvl_76JV2FSBwn3Q3JoBGRk6UtEo0qLwiXEx-40C5hRxSARnssnXIzJ2rMoz1lZCHRCitMvWUMZQvZFK3tJGOWZO8sH87A35RiY5iVBI-XPcKBMvA-lqV1tYL491ek0Mj43sck\/s1600-h\/Pumpkin+Fairy.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 200px;\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEia5MHVdFUvl_76JV2FSBwn3Q3JoBGRk6UtEo0qLwiXEx-40C5hRxSARnssnXIzJ2rMoz1lZCHRCitMvWUMZQvZFK3tJGOWZO8sH87A35RiY5iVBI-XPcKBMvA-lqV1tYL491ek0Mj43sck\/s200\/Pumpkin+Fairy.jpg\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403665963744840434\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Ok, now that you are totally drooling and in awe, drop Dee an email at <span><span>sexy_cook@hotmail.com.
