JUST IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAYS,
these finger food plates will help you look in control the whole time you're at your parties...
They made me laugh but if I see you at a party with one on your finger, you're welcome....

THE WEE ONES ARE SO CONFUSED
because their grandfather has already put up a Christmas tree...
Now all I hear is "When's Christmas?" "That's too far away!"

ALWAYS LOOKING FOR BUDGET FRIENDLY
recipes and ideas, my go-to treat is rice krispie treats.
You can make them fun, you can make them simple or you can make them beautiful, but no matter how you make them, they are easy to mass produce and they are always delicious....
Seriously, who doesn't like rice krispie treats?

I can't believe Halloween is only 4 days away....CRICKETS AND MEALWORMS ARE
disgusting, even when covered with chocolate.
Extreme Sweets had an episode showing chocolate covered mealworms and crickets, and so of course my husband and boys needed to try it out...

I WAS GIDDY THIS MORNING
as I headed up to Portland. Why?
Because Andy Kane has moved from San Francisco to Oregon and I was enrolled in his screen printing class...
I was able to make this tote!

I was able to make this tote! It was taught as a true DIY class with tons of tips for success. I give the class an enthusiastic two thumbs up!
It was very inspiring and I totally recommend the class to anyone who has an interest in screen printing.
I can't wait to purchase supplies and to start experimenting!
