When a recipe calls for tomato paste, does it bug you that you need to open up a 6 oz can in order to get 2 tablespoons of tomato paste? Â A few years back I finally figured out the best way to have tablespoon sized portions of tomato paste at my fingertips and ready to […]
In case you missed it: Weekly Wrap-Up
Whenever there’s a 3 day weekend with a Monday holiday, it throws me off for the remainder  of the week.  This past weekend was a 4-day weekend where the kids had Valentine’s Day off as well as the Monday of Presidents’ Day.  So nothing happened around her from Sunday through Tuesday. Wednesday: I gave […]
Why I felt a blue chicken was necessary.
So a few days ago I shared a makeover I did on a little plant stand. Â I put a little wooden chicken in with the flowers, but he wasn’t really showing up against the color of the house… so I thought he should be blue. See? Â Now he shows up against the house. Â He was […]
The best lasagna recipe. Ever.
I’m half Italian, (Sicilian, to be precise) I love to eat and I love to cook. Â I’ve tasted a ton of lasagna recipes and I think this is the best lasagna recipe ever. Â It’s flavorful, hearty and will satisfy your culinary soul. Â (And also, your children.) Before we get started, DO NOT BE AFRAID […]
Spring planter makeover (& how it looked like Shrek until I added a chicken.)

A spring birdcage planter.
On Monday I shared that I would be appearing at my local Michaels store this coming Sunday (just like 99 other Hometalk bloggers across the country) and making fun projects at a Pinterest Party. I am going to be making another project on Sunday, but I wanted to share a fun little project I whipped […]
Heart shaped carrots.
Now that I have seen this cute trick from Jamie at C.R.A.F.T., I am going to refuse to eat carrots any other way. Â From now on, I will only eat heart shaped carrots. I don’t know why I didn’t figure this out on my own before this. Â Please check out the easy tutorial and […]
A felted heart garland for Valentine’s Day.
Sometimes I love it when people use non-traditional colors for holidays. Â Rather than go for the expected red and pink, Steph from The Silly Pearl made a really cool felted heart garland in cream and gold for a fun twist on Valentine’s Day decor. I have never done any felted projects before, but after seeing […]
A Pinterest Party with Michaels & Hometalk. (And me.)
We all love Pinterest, right? Â I pin cute projects all the time with the intention of creating a version of my own, but don’t get around to actually doing it as often as I’d like. Â Have you tried to make anything that you’ve pinned yet? Â If you haven’t recreated something you found on Pinterest, […]
