Today, we're going to again explore what makes Carrollton, Texas special.
That's where Disney stars Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato
got their start as 7 year old extras on the show.

A beehive of activityThe program is produced in the Dallas suburb of Carrollton, inside an unadorned red brick building that bears no hint of the beehive of activity within.
Inside, carpenters hammer away on set designs, elaborate props are constructed, voices and sounds are recorded and dance routines are rehearsed. The child actors who perform with Barney even have their own classroom and teacher.
Barney really is two people, as are each of his dinosaur sidekicks.

A Pfaltzgraff Pattern
This pretty, graceful pattern is rich in intricate textures and lavish details,
from the fluted exteriors to the scalloped rims,
all rendered in tones of pink and cream.
RETIRED as of 8/31/08.

You are...
one...
lucky duck!
I'm not into pink dinnerware much, but I found myself looking at this pattern a lot when I visit Pfaltzgraff online.
Thank you, Beverly and Christine for hosting another great one!
My blog buddy, Lynn of "Lynn's Kitchen" has a great recipe for Apple Crisp! Come see her and the yummy recipe. If you haven't yet yesterday, I mean! LOL I will so do it and show you all soon!
TABLESCAPING IDEA: ("Brain is just tickled pink about this idea!) Create a zen table using pink from the tablecloth to the candles. Meaning use the same shade of pink throughout and do a simple pink short orchid stem centerpiece in a clear glass. Use soft pink votives or tea lights in clear containers. By having a monotone table, it looks peaceful and serene, giving a zen feel to your evening. For the menu, plan a menu that's quiet to eat- creamy potato soup, marinated steak already cut in strips, brown rice pilaf or risotto and cheesecake bites. This is a perfect table to create when the whole family is stressed out over something like tests or a big move or not so good report cards. It will be an inexpensive and delicious therapy for everyone...
Hello Chandy! I think it'll be nice to have a walk at Elm Fork Nature Preserve - nice sights and fresh air :-) Oh and the "edible cups" you made sure looks delicious. But I don't bake so it's sad. Someday - maybe :-)
