Happy Friday to you! Here are 5 notable things from this past week:

1> Well, you pretty much can’t top my 2nd blogiversary, now can you? I ate quite a lot of cookies in celebration. {Or maybe I would have eaten them anyway.}

Have you entered the $50 gift card giveaway for Shabby Apple? It’s as simple as a few clicks! And if you’re a male figure, you can totally enter and give the card to the female in your life. Or just mail it to me. Either is acceptable. Click here to enter!

2> I absolutely love this Valentine’s idea via Emily at Jones Design Company. Write a little love note to your kids everyday sharing 1 thing you love about them! Emily even provides a free printable to pretty things up!

 

3> I came across some pretty great links this week and thought I’d share:

Victoria shares 10 beautiful Valentine’s wreaths. Check ’em out to get your creative juices flowing. {oh, and 1 of them looks somewhat familiar!}

You can make homemade bread in 5 minutes.

Why you should consider getting rid of Twitter, Pinterest, Facebook, and your scale. <—- excellent read

4> I’ve had my eye on attending The Maker’s Summit for several months now. Ever since they announced it, really. I even sold some of my items to raise money for it. And Jonathan gave me the “go-ahead.” But I never registered because … well, I just never made up my mind.

So I was pretty bummed to see this notice when I checked the site this past Sunday:

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa? SOLD OUT? No way!

I e-mailed the organizer and said something to the tune of, “I totally want to come. Please let me know if anyone cancels.”

On Tuesday, I got an email. They had 1 extra spot someone wasn’t going to use. Which took me to this lovely screen:

Awesomesauce! So, I’m headed to Greenville this weekend for The Maker’s Summit. Pretty excited. And scared. Let’s be honest. I will instagram some moments, so follow me {@BrownSugarToast} if you like crazy things like that as much as I do!

5> Last, but certainly not least…a new series!!! Starting this Monday and “airing” each Monday for the next 6 weeks:

Join me Monday and I’ll share one of our fave freezer recipes. Happy weekend!
