Let’s forgo manners and lick the plate! was recently said by my Sweet Boy at the end of dinner. Like many other women, I am a mom to slightly picky eaters. I love a recipe that’s quick, easy and inexpensive. I often rely on recipes that use Campbell's Cooking Soups as an ingredient. A fairly new feature I love is the Wisest Kid recipe section. A favorite go-to that my family adores is Chicken Roll-Ups. There are just four ingredients, and the tasty results will have your family wanting to lick ... View the Post

Meris Crafting Palace
My good friend Meri doesn’t have a craft room. She has a crafting palace. I absolutely love to visit Meris Crafting Palace. Meris Crafting Palace Whenever she hosts an event it takes her several weeks to prepare. Tables groan under the weight of gleaming reflectors. There is an entire forest of bottlebrush trees. Every inch of wall space features tins of treasures and rolls of ribbon. As well as an enviable collection of vintage toys. She is a fabulous mentor and has “how ... View the Post
Little Pink Houses For You and Me
While I normally do not begin my Christmas themed posts until after Thanksgiving, this year the holiday falls very late in November. I have so much goodness planned that there would not be enough time otherwise. But the exception is Little Pink Houses For You and Me. Over I week ago my good friend Meri hosted a holiday workshop.
