Sweet Strawberry Dreams

Over the weekend my laptop decided to stop working.

Not yet three years old it seems the "mother board" has died.

Of course it would cost nearly as much to replace that as to replace the entire laptop so... who am I to question why my 20 year old refrigerator is still humming and my 13 year old washer and dryer are hanging in there, but my fairly new laptop has bitten the dust. 

Moving on ....

When I re-installed Picasa today I noticed that this newer version has an editing option called "Edit in Creative Kit".  I made the simple collage above using that feature and found it to feel very similar to Picnik.  I'm not sure what that's all about, but I must say I like it.

I also spent some time today going through the links I have stored in "favorites" and came across a recipe for Strawberry Scones that I planned to try someday.

The local strawberries have been so sweet and I just happened to have some on hand.  Seemed like a good day to give that recipe a try.

So glad I did as they are yummy.

I know because I sampled one and I've reserved another one for breakfast.

It's now 11:15 and I'm headed for bed and anticipating sweet dreams of strawberry scones and piping hot coffee.

If you'd like the recipe it can be found here.

I would have typed it out for you, but in order to give the proper credit it seems like you should see her pretty pictures and post...  not to mention the sooner I get to bed, the sooner I wake up to another scone :-).

Pleasant Dreams!!
