True happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new.

Today’s prompt:
What was the last thing you made? What materials did you use? Is there something you want to make, but you need to clear some time for it? (Author: Gretchen Rubin)
The last thing I made? This cake for the curling bon spiel (tournament)* we participated in at our club this past weekend:
Because I didn’t have much time, I used a boxed mix and store-bought icing. That’s not my usual MO, but it had to be done. I love baking – the smell of something yummy in the oven just makes me really happy.
I need to make more journals, to complete an item on the 101 in 1001 list – I haven’t made a single one since I put it on the list. I’ve got the materials, I just need to make time. In 2011, I hope to complete them all – want one? 🙂
* I’m working on a post about curling – stay tuned!
