Handsome Hubby and I love to cook, and we love having friends over for dinner.  Sometimes it is a complicated menu, but there are plenty of times when we just want to have a good old fashioned BBQ and grill some burgers and hot dogs. The nice people at Hebrew National asked me to whip up […]
Summer inspiration.
While I’m in Atlanta at The Haven Conference, I thought I’d do a little recap of some previous summer posts. Have you checked out my post on turning an old washing machine drum into a fire pit? Perfect for camping or the beach. How about making your own Pottery Barn inspired shell candles? And did […]
Easy, make ahead Baby-back Ribs… just in time for your summer BBQs.
With summer here and 4th of July festivities just around the corner, lots of people start thinking about BBQs. Â Burgers and hot dogs are usually the go-to menu, simply because they’re so easy. You know what else is super easy and can be prepped ahead of time? Â Ribs. Want to know how to give them […]
Bacon Waffles with a Peppered Egg (So bad for you, but SO good!)
I had kind of an odd Father’s Day Weekend. Handsome Hubby took the two younger kids and went up to spend the weekend with his parents (they live about 3 hours North of us…) Â I wanted to stay around to make sure that Devin and Conner got through their first Father’s Day without their dad […]
I must brag a bit. I must.
OK, I am proud of all of my boys, but can I just take a moment to brag on Conner? Most of you know that Devin and Conner went through an emotionally exhausting experience in March. Â For three weeks, they basically lived in the hospital at their father’s bedside during the final days of his […]
What’s the secret code for getting out of homework…?
I am soooooo glad it’s the end of the school year! Â I am tired of fighting The Battle of the Homework. Going through Grant’s papers I found this: The assignment was to look up a word and write the definition. Â While it would no doubt have helped if he had spelled concert correctly, he appears […]
Summer’s here! How to choose a sunscreen.
Sunscreen. This isn’t anything new or earth-shattering… but I cannot, for the life of me, keep it straight.I figure that there might be other people like me, who for some reason can’t manage to retain this information.  Every year, I ask myself these same questions: What does SPF stand for…?  (And what do the different numbers […]
Brownies with Chocolate-Caramel Glaze: A special moment dessert.
We had some friends over for dinner Saturday night for an easy BBQ. Â (It wasn’t a last minute thing, but it wasn’t exactly on the books for weeks either.) Â Â I realized that our friends Rick and Rose both had birthdays this week. Â Not wanting to make this A Birthday Party, but still wanting to […]
Seaside decor made from Salt Dough
As we head into a new summer, I thought I’d do a quick recap of some of the projects I made last summer. Specifically, those I made from a basic salt dough. I made dough starfish…. Click HERE for the tutorial …and a wacky, free-form piece of “coral”…. See how I made this HERE … […]
Hydrangeas: easy floral decor in just minutes.
I love hydrangeas. Â They are easy to grow, easy to group together in one big arrangement, and they are easy to preserve. I cut several stems and popped them into a champagne bucket. So easy! Â It is impossible to screw up an arrangement of hydrangeas. Â These were all from my yard. Clip, strip the leaves, […]
