I recently got to play around with a Tulip Tie Dye Kit, and I was pretty excited to do so because they asked me to tie dye something for the home. Â Not a T shirt, not a tank top, but something decorative. Â OK! Here’s what I ended up doing… an ombre tie-dye basket: This started […]
Taking advantage of summer: How to “stock up” on fresh herbs.
I love fresh herbs.  We use a lot of basil and a ton of cilantro, and there is just no substitute for the fresh stuff!  Last week our grocery store had a deal on cilantro: 5 bunches for $1.  Even though we can’t use all of that up right then and there, I bought it. Yes, yes, […]
Evil, talking socks.
Scene: Getting ready for our annual camping trip and we’ve been charging the batteries for the walkie-talkies.  Grant had a dental check-up a few hours before and had chosen plastic vampire teeth from the dentist’s “goodie box” as a reward for being a good patient not squirming too much. I noticed a lone sock sitting on […]
Give your First Aid supplies an Annual Check-up.
Our annual camping trip is next week, and I am in the process of organizing and getting ready to go. I am usually pretty organized, so don’t let the picture fool you. Â It actually is controlled chaos. Â I know where everything is. Yes, I know it looks like a total disaster, but there is a […]
Strawberry Basil Relish
One of my favorite summer breakfasts (or snacks) combines two of my favorite seasonal flavors: Strawberries and fresh basil. Â Add in some good balsamic vinegar and you have delicious Strawberry Basil Relish. This post contains affiliate links. This yummy strawberry, goat cheese and basil combination has just a touch of balsamic vinegar, and when it’s […]
Mocha-Caramel Graham Pudding (An easy, make-ahead summer dessert)
One of the things I really love about summer-time is that lighter schedules make it easier to have impromptu get-togethers with friends.  Do you ever run into a friend on the street, at the store, whatever and 5 minutes later you’re planning a BBQ or picnic dinner for that evening?  Happens to me all the time […]
The land of the free BECAUSE of the brave. (More patriotic artwork)
This is one of my favorite patriotic projects! The saying is SO true, and it’s a great reminder of all that our brave men and women have done for this country. This easy DIY artwork project can be done in just an afternoon.
DIY Patriotic Flag Artwork in about an hour.
I love this country. I love quick art projects. I love spray paint. I dropped the ball as far as getting my patriotic decor up last month, so I am hustling to get some up in a day. This “Old Glory” flag sign was created in less than an hour using scrap wood and some […]
Upcycled: Patriotic Jars
I shared this simple craft on Mom It Forward earlier this week.  So quick and easy to create!  (And fairly disposable too!) Add some patriotic flair to your decor by upcycling a few glass jars with some red, white and blue. Everyone has glass jars around the house.  Create some patriotic vases, or how about just […]
The Atlanta TSA stole my son’s yo-yo.
So I just got back from The Haven Conference, which was fabulous and I’ll tell you all about it in the the next few days. Â There were lots of great sponsors there and one of them, Fish Foam, was giving out toy yo-yo’s along with samples of their product. Most women aren’t that into yo-yo’s, […]
