a message to my husband...


Today is the last day of my husband's vacation. Two weeks of having him around all day and we are spoiled.   We decided that we were just going to have a laid back day. I made my husband a big breakfast of bacon, eggs and hash browns.  For a treat I made, Oreo Reese's Peanut Butter Cup sandwiches dipped in chocolate (i'll blog this another time) and for dinner I'm making him Spaghetti Carbonara. I made Spaghetti Carbonara for him when we were dating and it pretty much sealed the deal! Huzzah!  I hardly ever make this now because it's an egg based meal and I don't eat eggs (they make me feel icky). 
I'm really excited because for my birthday (8 days away!) My husband had me sign up for Jeanne Oliver's E-Course Creatively Made!  I think this will really help me get the creative juices flowing! I can't wait to start creating and sharing my art!

I am, of course, sneaking a peek at your stack of books. I've read Rules of Civility. And I've quite enjoyed Mary Kay Andrews in the past - my favorite from her is Savannah Blues, so check that one out if you end up liking it! Are you on Goodreads? Get thee on Goodreads so we can be friends there! ;-) That's been one of my favorite ways to find new things to read.

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

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.
