I started collecting them a month or two ago - yep, right about the time I settled on this Homemaking for a Year project.<br /><br />Thank you for writing about Kelly. I share her distaste for pink and also for the forced cheerfulness that seems to accompany it - not so much from people with cancer or their families but from people who haven't been down that road. xxooMary Cartledgehayeshttp://marycartledgehayes.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236430084801008700.post-58971116489270424472012-10-04T19:24:54.743-07:002012-10-04T19:24:54.743-07:00I can't seem to get enough pumpkin goodies.

So glad she sent me your way! My daughter Amber passed away in 2009 at the age of 29 ... a few weeks shy of her 30th birthday. We miss her so much! Amber loved sunflowers! I have them on her gravesite engraved with angels holding them. In the vase there is a sunflower arrangement. I have sunflowers everywhere! I even grow them! I am working on a sunroom filled with sunflower decor. Everyone who reads my blog knows about Amber and sunflowers along with her favorite color purple.<br />Now I am about to read more of your blog! The Blondies sound so yummy!<br />Hugs,<br />DonnaDonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04375657997821880949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236430084801008700.post-72978383262481158102012-10-03T17:42:20.427-07:002012-10-03T17:42:20.427-07:00Mmmmm, those look real good, Susan.

We had a huge wild growing one in our driveway this year. I admired it every day. I also used to have a wardrobe of black clothing. That changed a bit over the years, but it is still one of my preferred colors.<br />Great blondies recipe. I especially like the addition of the pistachios.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236430084801008700.post-44223427216163425832012-10-01T20:51:25.652-07:002012-10-01T20:51:25.652-07:00yumIE! i love the apron susan, and these stories a...yumIE! i love the apron susan, and these stories about kelly. i believe she did lead you to this print! it's funny, my mother loved me in oranges, yellows, autumny colors. i liked blue. since losing my mum i love oranges and yellows and it feels like i always have!
