MME Layout Challenge 29

I love My Mind's Eye and love their sketches..played along with both this month!

 I adore this photo that my friend Leah shared with me, the sweetest pictures of her boys.  Love the look on the little ones face looking up at his big brother.  So sweet.  They truly are buddies and the best of friends.  I knew I had the perfect stash of MME to scrap this great photo...
everything from the Stella & Rose line...with a little Glimmer Mist, twine and machine stitching!

A ton!
So I decided to play along, this challenge was to use something about cooking!
I have been hoarding the Early Bird Cosmo Cricket line for two years now...still pained me to dig into it..lol!

But I am happy with it!

Cosmo Cricket's Eary Bird patterned papers and
