And who doesn’t like those?Read more

Let’s face it. Egg dying can be a momma’s worst nightmare. I remember my mom setting up an area that Dexter would be proud of before she even let that liquid near the eggs. In constant fear of stained floors, tables, linens and walls; egg dying was a special treat that came with a lotRead more
Well Happy St. Patrick’s Day!! I hope you remembered to wear green today, or you’ll be hearing about it all day long. I spent my weekend working, hubby spent it spring-cleaning (bless him) and somewhere in there I found time to make a rainbow of DIY colored sugar. You know, for St. Patrick’s Day. (AndRead more
There are a lot of edibles that can be taken up a notch with some beautiful, colored sugars. These sugars are readily available in a lot of baking supply stores but can be up to $1 an ounce! Of SUGAR!? So for years, I’ve been making my own colored sugars. You can see them atRead more
As a blogger, it is hard not to get caught up in comparing yourself with everyone else. I mean, blogging by rights means that I am opening myself up to you all. Showing you what I made, what I think, and where I made it. The trouble is, there is this constant urge to hideRead more
I recently heard that the Monday after spring daylight savings time is the worst Monday of the year. What do you think? I have to admit I am not a fan of waking up in darkness. :/ I spent my weekend making mysterious potions and testing new crafts. Some worked, some didn’t, and some areRead more
I’ve told you all before that I rarely give store bought gifts or money at a wedding. That was the reason I ventured into Personalized Pyrex and Kitchen Towels a year or two ago. So hopefully it is no surprise to anyone when I show up at a wedding bearing oddly shaped and often home-madeRead more
