For the detailed recipe, click here to go to my gourmet webzine.
The marriage of fresh raspberries and basil is perfect! The cake itself is rich and moist, yet still feels light. Made even more special with a cream-cheese buttercream, delicately scented with lemon and vanilla.
Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or afternoon tea in the garden!

Robin & Holly: Surpriiiise! We brought Julien too!!!
Me: aaawww
Julien: I'm cold.. It's all linen, my outfit!
Me: I can make a warm outfit for you but it will take some time.
Julien: Or turn on the fireplace...
Me: ah. Yes, sorry, I forgot...
Robin & Holly: Don't worry, we got this!

Tuesday seemed like a good day to create a table setting, so I got out some more of my Cape Cod ware and set it up on a cream-colored placemat. After adding the cute heart border, I decided to put a light crinkle texture overlay. The hardest part is showing the deep reds while also showing the intricate design and not allowing too much red in the shadows. This glassware is so pretty in person, and though I have usable pieces, I can't imagine using them for anything but looking good. :-)
After getting it all done, I realized I had two sets of two-of-a-kind, so it's perfect for item 89 in the 118 Pictures group.
Freida is a Fashion Friend play doll by Ruby Red Galleria.
The dress is made by me from a sewing pattern by Forever 18inch called "The Versatility Dress" (found on pixiefaire.com).
Sometimes I feel the urge to sew for a new doll without having to go through the time consuming process of designing the pattern myself, so I'm very glad we can purchase online sewing patterns for our dolly needs. That dress took about 1 hour to make, so that's good good good.

So I had to call my boss/the CEO at the crack of dawn b/c Ruby Red was sick. I'm very fortunate that she is an animal lover and has 4+ kitties and other animals of her own.. Ruby Red is doing ok, she got a few injections for pancreatitis flare.
The bigger concern in Ms Phoebe. I decided to bring her in as well. Last week she ate a few foam objects (she has had pica since she was a tiny kitten and thus I kitty-proof my home but obviously missed some foam). Need all the prayers you have to the Poopy Deity.. hoping and praying that the rest of the foam comes out the other end!

Cool Cherry Dessert Recipe
Ingredients:
1 cup pitted fresh cherries
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 sliced and peeled banana
1/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans (or walnuts)
1/2 cup whipped cream
Preparation:
Combine cherries and sugar then refrigerate for 2 hours.
Combine chilled cherries with banana and nuts; fold in whipped cream.
Serve in four dessert glasses.
fun facts:
The 4th of July is Independence Day in the United States of America and also the first day of the National Cherry Festival in the ‘cherry capital’ of Traverse Bay, Michigan.
The USA is also the second highest producer of cherries after Turkey in Europe.
Waiting for blood work results
So the good news is Ms. RubyRed's kidneys are actually better than they were in the past few years.
But my sweet girl is very sick, has acute pancreatitis.. she evidently stopped eating / drinking due to nausea. She'll be in the hospital at least until the weekend. She needs to be NPO for 2 to 3 days to rest the pancreas, so IV fluids and various meds. The vet was great and I know she is in good hands. I have to cal later to check in with him for an update.
Thank you everyone for your love and prayers.

Little pink bleeding buds
Came out overnight
And in the sun rays
Their hearts sparked to ignite

John Popper of Blues Traveler just shreds the harmonica as he plays. While best know for "Run Around" or "Hook" here is a small solo that is very nice. Enjoy !

Bench made by me about 20 years ago! And just today it fell on the floor and a leg needs to be fixed with a dot of glue, I got lucky it could have been much worse!
