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
The Tale of a House in Spitalfields England
Happy Halloween my dear friends! Today I am going to tell you The Tale of a House in Spitalfields England. The Tale of a House in Spitalfields England Dennis Severs' home is located in London.

A Spooktacular Setting
I don’t think I have ever blogged about my neighborhood during Halloween. We are blessed to live in a cul ~ de ~ sac of kindness. Phyllis always sets up a candy station in her front yard first. Ponce plays music all night long and Alan delivers refreshments via a wagon and a cooler. It’s so much fun that my kids actually prefer to remain in “the circle” and pass out candy then go begging for it door to door. Every year I make a little something special for the neighborhood kids.

Saying Boo to a Bad Bathroom
I’ve been spending a lot of time in the bathroom lately. No, not like that. I’ve been trying to find a way to fall in love with it. Strangely enough, 97% of master bathrooms in Phoenix have no doors. Yes, you read that right. No doors. I’d like to talk with the man who thought that was a good design idea. (Yes, I am sure it was a man.) Saying Boo to a Bad Bathroom. The entryway into our master bath is over 9 ft tall. It would take an incredible amount of good luck finding a door to fit that ... 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
Fall Fun With Felt
I’ve been busy this week creating a few new, but inexpensive, fun fall projects. I am having Fall Fun With Felt. First up I made a holiday wreath using leftover yarn found at the Goodwill. I cut several extra snowflakes out to use in other projects that I will reveal when it is actually the holidays. :) Of course, this didn’t solve my dilemma of needing a new fall wreath so felt and I became friends again. Fall Fun With Felt I overestimated the amount of felt that I needed for my ... View the Post
