I did do a menu this week. In fact, I planned out the whole month of March! I got the idea from my friend, Christine. She got the idea from somewhere in the blogosphere. I had a printout to use from my Organizing Life as Mom ebook. So, I was good to go. One thing that I really liked about it was that...
This week I did something that has been bugging me for WEEKS! I went through these boxes and reclaimed the space under my counter. When Danika's birthday rolled around, we decided to have some family and their kids at the house and then have a party with my niece (because her birthday is the end of January, too) at my SIL's the next...
I stumbled across 750words.com from another blog that I was reading. I can't really remember what blog it was, or I would totally give credit where credit is due. I will say, though, that I've found it rather therapeutic for me. You may wonder why I would want to write 750 words when I write on my blog, too. The answer is that sometimes I...
Guess what the UPS guy dropped off at my house today? I had a REALLY hard time waiting until I had time to open the box and go through it. I was planning on vlogging about it (I've never done one and I thought this would be an easy way to give it a shot - lots of things to talk about) but...
I'll be honest with you - it's been a while since I had a day where I was pretty much happy the WHOLE day! Aside from thinking I may have to go to work for the first half hour I was awake (for some reason the school district in question waited until the LAST possible minute to cancel), it was a GREAT day!...
I don't really feel like sharing my menu with all of you this week - I just don't feel like it, so I'm not going to! (Seriously, though, it's a pretty lame menu anyway.) I do want to tell you about the thrilling experience I had at the grocery store and how totally and completely stoked (yes, I said stoked) I am about...
My kitchen is small. I have a lot of little cabinets but no place to store really big items and it's difficult to put all the same things in one place (for example all of the food in one cupboard and all of the pots and pans in another) so it's spread out and I do a lot of opening and closing cabinets...
I'm quite proud of myself for already finishing my book club book this month! Click on book for synopsis I didn't LOVE it as much as I did last month's book, Winter Garden. In fact, I didn't LOVE it at all. I did LIKE it, though. I kind of had a tiny bit of a preconception about it because my friend, Christine, had...
Guess what I got for Valentine's Day? I am so stinking excited about this because I waste a ton of coffee by making a whole pot but LOVE a cup in the morning to get going! Plus - it's super easy, super fast and there is NOTHING to clean up! ;) I also got another wonderful Valentine's surprise! I got an email this...
Valentine's Day has never really been a big deal for me. I like chocolate. I like flowers. I don't necessarily think they are money well spent, though. I don't like jewelry. Weird, huh? I'm just not into jewelry...I've got my wedding rings and a few necklaces, some earrings and my watch...that's about all I need and all I really want. My husband bought me a charm bracelet...
This week I was busy. VERY busy and I'm still not feeling great - which meant that I couldn't take on one of the bigger projects on my To Do List. What I did do was organize my online clutter. I started by taking care of all of those emails that can't bring myself to delete for some reason or another - responding...
So...I must have felt like taking pictures today because I have some to share with you! First...remember when I did this post for Say Mmmm? I talked about making some grub for the Super Bowl? Here's pics of the ones I made for lunch with the leftover ingredients! Totally yummy, right? Remember my last post about Duct Tape and Velcro? I figured out that...
