Happy Sweet Sharing Monday!! I have to say, I think I’m ready for work this Monday. I’ve had a busy weekend. We’re close to finishing the craft room in Our New House – so I keep wanting to work on it! What about you? Have you got any projects on your to-do list? What aboutRead more
I love Ikea. There, I said it – and its true! The prices are great, and I see potential in everything I buy there. I mean, check out my DIY Ikea Lamp Makeover and the Cheap & Easy Expedite Doors post. The problem is, its all *potential*. Ikea is usually really modern (especially the wellRead more
Whew! I don’t know about you, but I am all vacationed and holiday-weekended out! I’ve been busier the last two weeks while “taking it easy” than I am in the busiest days of work! Still, I managed to get a craft in, see my family, explore several water falls, and of course, enjoy everyone’s linksRead more
Its funny what sort of wondrous things happen while I’m out! While I was on vacation for the past week, I reached the 3000 Facebook fan mark! If you’d have told me I would be anywhere near that a year ago, I would have laughed. But this blogging journey has been a strange one, andRead more
Happy Monday everyone! It’s a happy Monday for me because I am on VACATION! I’m writing this post from the back woods of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Today we hit up Mackinac Island, rode a tandem bike around the whole thing, ans then stopped to camp for the night. Tomorrow will be boat tours and waterfalls! Anyway, what about you? I hopeRead more
By the time you read this, hubby and I will be in the UP. We’re off the grid for the next few days, camping, hiking and exploring the great outdoors. But don’t worry. Sweet Sharing Monday will still go up, and I’ll be sure to share waterfall pics on my Facebook! We’ll be logging someRead more
Well, good Monday to you all! I hope everyone had a great father’s day (did you send your Father in Law my cute card from Somewhat Simple!?) My day was pretty low key, my father being gone. But its still fun to see everyone out enjoying the day as a family! How about you? AnyRead more
So a couple of months ago I dug out this sewing box. I bought it when we first moved to GR for $8 at a Goodwill. It was falling apart and I didn’t really have space for it, so it got tucked away until dreams of the New House started floating in my head. For aRead more
Well, happy Monday to you all! I’m sitting here prepping this Sweet Sharing Monday from our *almost finished* office!! That’s right, since we’ve moved in to Our New House we’ve managed to find time to tear out the horrid stained carpeting of this room, lay new flooring, paint it (briefly throwing a rant tantrum onRead more
When my in-laws moved out of my husband’s childhood home a few years ago, (speaking of, did you see my father’s day card for my Father in-law at Somewhat Simple? Check it out!!), we were sure to grab a few treasures. Among them was this neat storage chest. Its origins are unknown, but it wasRead more
Could it be that I am FINALLY getting a Sweet Sharing Monday up on time!? YES!!! Its been 2 weeks in the new house, and I now have internet, and a place to set my laptop. It feels good to finally be able to slow down and get back to some of my passions (likeRead more
By now you’ve probably noticed that I love ice cream. And you’ve heard about the WONDERFUL ice cream maker my lovely mother got me for Christmas. So then you probably aren’t *too* surprised that I’ve got another ice cream recipe. This coconut ice cream was something I’ve wanted to make since trying a coconut flavoredRead more
