30 Sweet Treats for You to Eat on My Birthday

I’ve been trying to cut back on sugar lately, but on my birthday, which is TODAY, I’m fairly certain that anything goes.

So, I’m rounding up 30 of my favorite sweets to celebrate me turning the big 3-0.

On a more serious note, I almost can’t believe I’ve now officially been alive for thirty years. In a lot of ways I still feel like a kid, but I guess a part of me feels (slightly) more mature at the same time.

There were so many things that I had hoped to accomplish by 30 that I didn’t – have a book published of my DIY projects, professionally style another author’s book, create a product line, etc, etc. BUT I’m happy with what I have accomplished thus far and will focus on crossing off those ‘yet to accomplish’ to-dos as they come, even if it’s a little late. Look at me, talking like a fancy grown up.

Hope you’re having a good week! I’ll be back tomorrow with some DIYs to try for the weekend.
