TWD~Banana Creme Pie

By -

I must admit that i actually didn't make this last night. But I have made it several times before.
And it is always a hit!!! It has a very distinctive taste, unlike other banana creme pies. I think it's the cinnamon and nutmeg that give it a special ooomph!
I blogged about this pie a few summers ago. Actually it was the day the I-35W Bridge collapsed here in Minneapolis. The pie is still delicious, but this pie also reminds me of a sad day. So if you want to read about that, you can read it here.


Truthfully, I couldn't make pie last night because it was the MN Twin's Home Opener! Woot Woot! Tonight I am going to the game and I PUMPED! Go Twins!

I am also PUMPED because I just found out I won a give-away!!! One of my favorite blogger gals, Heidi Ashworth hooked me up with a book she wrote! I've been wanting to read this for awhile and now I won it!!! Thanks Heidi! The book is called Miss Delacourt Speaks Her Mind and you can find it at Amazon. Go check it out!

So now with Christmas almost upon us, I wanted to take the last few days to make some Christmas Crafts. This weekend I spied this AWESOME clothespin wreath on Pinterest which lead me to  Hambly Screen Prints Blog . Not only is it a fantastic blog with fun projects, it's also an online store full of the coolest scrapbook\crafting supplies. If you haven't been to Hambly Screen Prints...  GO NOW ! The clothespin wreath was so fun and easy to make!  Supplies you need: Wooden clothespins scrapbook papers Washi tape (or decorative tape) You can buy washi tape at Hambly, Amazon.com, etsy, Michaels or most craft stores) Glue Thick cardboard for circle (or Michaels sells pre-made circle forms) Felt to cover cardboard (although I skipped that step) Decorate your clothespin however you like. Mine were a combination of scrapbook paper, decorative tape from Martha Stewart and glitter.  The longest part was cutting all the strips and gluing them on, but once they are done it&

A Book and A Giveaway

By -

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
