Sweet Favors

There are many ways you can greet or send your guests off that are simple but make them feel extra special. Here are a few Sweet Favors.   Sweet Favors Christmas crackers are a time-honored festive tradition.   Flowers are always Centsational!   Of course the fail safe collection of sweets is always appreciated too.

Hi Ya

The day started out in the school office. Sweet Boy and I like to make sure that the administrative ladies know we love them. Hi Ya! The 4th graders were enjoying the Great Pumpkin Caper. Pumpkins were weighed and measured. Ridges on the pumpkin had to be counted. Then the pumpkin had to be scooped out and every single seed counted. The kids really enjoyed the slimy goodness. I then had lunch with Lady Gaga (aka The Fashionista). Of course, every Ga Ga needs a Little ... View the Post

Spice Girl

I spent Sunday afternoon cleaning and organizing my spice cabinet. It didn’t really seem like work. So this Spice Girl made a few changes. It all began when I spotted this old spice rack at a thrift store a few weeks ago. Do you see the $5.00 price tag? It made me think about what my current baking center looked like. Then I spotted this gem at the Goodwill. (You can also find vintage and antique spice racks and bottles on eBay.) While I have plans for the blue spice rack, I gave this ... View the Post

A Light Fixture Goes From Brass To Class

I have been giving this brass light fixture, which hangs in my entry, the evil eye for seven years. I finally decided to do something about it.  The makeover budget was less than $20.

I gave it serious thought. For two years. I really wanted to ... View the Post
