Curcuma Beauty

 Look at how beautiful this plant it is!
It is a perennial; 
one I had never heard of but I loved the height and long blooming time for this plant.
It is doing great and I love learning about a new plant!
 Here is something I don't do too often--bake!
It is a Ghirardelli Brownie mix--Caramel Turtle--but you put the mix into cupcake papers,
saving the caramel for the frosting. 
 The recipe is on the box--it has been tempting me for months so
I gave it a go today when my youngest son and family came for a visit today--it was beyond superb!
Give it a try!
And after a day of snuggles, fun and swimming,
I enjoyed a good sit and knit on my socks that will never end!

  1. Those cupcakes look so good!!!
    I love those socks. You are tempting me to want a pair like that but I don't think I have the patience.

  2. I've used that mix before, love it! The hat is adorable, and you are right, the honeycomb quilt needs bee fabric!

  7. Ghirardelli brownie mixes are the best, aren't they? We love the double chocolate ones. Gladys is a fun pattern, isn't it? Love that flower and the fact that it will come back next year! It kind of looks like a type of lily.
