THiRSTY THURSDAY
defined as a day to...
share something...ANYTHING...
that makes my mouth water...
quenches my creative tastebuds...
satisfies my thirst for inspiration...
or leaves me "creatively parched"
and ultimately wanting for more...

Dear Santa...
I've been a pretty good girl this year.
So I was thinking...
You know how much I'm in the kitchen?
The place I never seem to leave?
And you know how much I LOVE baking...
typically treats for my family and friends as long as I don't eat them myself.
And you know how I do my best to make dinner for my family every night?
as long as it doesn't cut in to any precious baking time & if I don't order pizza because I'm too tired to cook.
Well I would be SUCH a happy girl if you'd kindly
bring me one of each of the following...pretty please.
I pinky promise your Christmas cookies will never be store-bought again...
Oh...
and Santa...
I'm seriously in love with all of the hand-painted gorgeousness from Aedriel Originals!
Like these...

I'm actually writing to share with you something I'm completely excited about...
the beautiful tradition I'm starting this year...
I'll be filling up one of these gorgeous Aedriel Originals plates with some homemade deliciousness...
and then I'm going to pick a special someone to give it to.
The idea is for the receiver to then refill the plate and pass it along!
Brilliant, selfless idea, right?
Thanks for listening Santa.

My mom wants one of the plates to start the "Give - pass it on" plate tradition in her workplace...
LOVE that idea!
I'm pretty sure she was trying to hint to me she wants to be my first "receiver" of the plate. *wink*
Love you Mom!!

Great review...I mean "Christmas List". (Wink) I love your mom's idea...it's fantastic and so needed in this crazy world we live in. I'd love to do the same thing once I move. (Next month)
Jessica,
I just love the uber cute cupcake pedestals! I am thinking about getting a few for myself. The whole Aedriel Originals website is just fantastic. I also really like the idea of the Give-Pass It On Plate.Thank you for sharing these wonderful treasures.

Ann and Kelly...I'm thrilled you love these Adriel Originals items too!! The Farm Table Collection is definitely my favorite "me" gift...and the "Give" plate is something I can't wait to fill and "pass on". Thinking I'm definitely going to get my kids involved to see who they'd like to present the plate to. I'll keep you updated.
Wow! Thanks for featuring Aedriel's fabulous selection of items!
