Birthday Giveaway!
I'm celebrating my 45th birthday today and as Sugar Ray Leonard wisely said 'it's better to give than to receive' so I want to give y'all a chance to share in the joy with this little giveaway. The prize is one of my original watercolors "Peonies", a typical Mexican 70% chocolate bar and a small bouquet of paper flowers. Leave a comment this weekend for a chance to win. I will pick a random name on Monday morning (Mexican time).
***Comments are now closed. I will chose a random winner and announce it later today.
Thank you so much for all the birthday love, you guys are the best!

On your special day, please let me say,"thank you." Thank you for all you have created and shared. After seeing your blog at a very unhappy time in my life, you inspired me to quit my job so that I might spend more time with my family, create more art, cook more food!, and enjoy the beauty around me.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you... Enjoy your birthday and know that you have touched my life and the lives of so many others. :)
You are a wonderfully generous person. Have a lovely day and a fantastic year.
