{Goodbye February! You've Been Good To Me}

I just love the many different wax melt cubes you can find these days for your electric wax melt warmer. My Sister gifted me with this cute thing with so many different flavors of wax melt for my birthday. I love the smells but oh do I ENJOY the little things of life.

Some friends and I had a birthday outing for me with shopping, lunch and a stop by a new cute bakery that just opened up a few weeks ago. My mercy everything looked so good. These two ladies and I have been friends since elementary school. We try to get together once a month but since it was birthday month I got to pick where we went for the day. 

I brought home one of their cookie bars and had it the next day with coffee. So good. 

Of course we spotted a Thrift store along the birthday journey and I had to have some fun. I thought these boots would have been perfect for me. WELL...I couldn't figure out how to put a 5 foot woman into a pair of boots that must have been made for one tall gal! LOL! The fun us older women have! 

We stopped at Aldi's coming home as I've never been to Aldi's but so many people tell me constantly about the fresh fruit and produce and just different things you might find there. I did come home with quite a bit and YES the fresh fruit and produce was the best ever but this cheese! Oh my goodness! I am a cheese and cracker gal so I just had to give this a try. Wish I had of bought more while there.  

We sure had a lot of fun but can I just tell you that after a ten hour day outing with friends, I was pooped! My jaws hurt worse than my feet from laughing so much that day.

A group of us got together the next day to do a little yoga and mercy I needed the stretching and moving for sure. I blamed my "more extensive yoga workout" on Brittany's Cupcake Shoppe!!! All things in moderation right?

I had a few apples that needed something done with them before going bad. So, got busy and made some fresh apple muffins. Then I saved the peels and made some apple cinnamon drink for hot or cold teas. I saved enough diced up apples to add some fresh strawberries with lemon for a good Icee.  Well, apples about to go bad sure paid off!

The apple muffins got the thumbs up! My family enjoyed them today after dinner too. 

If you are interested in the recipe here is the link from Pinterest. *I used regular red apples*

We enjoyed a low country boil with a side of sushi and crab fingers for our Friday night by the pond. We haven't done our Friday nights by the pond lately due to so many other things going on but we did this past Friday. I ALWAYS over prepare! 

As my birthday month is drawing to an end I do want to say how thankful I am that the King of all Kings created me in His Image. My prayer to become more of Him and less of myself. I'll close with a devotional reading today that was seemed to have come at the appointed time needed. 

This is my life verse!

I hope that you all have a most wonderful ENDING to February. 

Hugs and blessings, Cindy
