Fruit Smoothies

We were at the YMCA pool and the kids really wanted a smoothie from the Smoothie place and I couldn't stomach spending the 4 a piece on a small one for them so I promised them when we got home that I would make them one. I used about two cups of frozen fruit mix (strawberry, pineapple, peach and mango) and than added...

Car Bandolier for the Boy

Becky 6:01 AM 0 Comments

I saw this Pin the other day and thought I need to make that for Mr. L. He carries his cars around or hoes in his pockets plus they always seem to be clanking around. I got some fabric off the remnant bin at the fabric store and paid about a buck for it (i have enough to make more and there has been a request by Miss O...

Chipboard B

Becky 12:00 AM 0 Comments

Yes I know another chipboard letter. I love them so much and want to switch them up when I can. I did this one which really accents the new paper Stampin Up has in the new catalog. I just took some 12x12 crumb cake, 8x11.5 summer starfruit, and covered my B with the Birds of a Feather DSP. Very simple and I love...

Becky 12:00 AM 0 Comments

I have been on a quest for the last ten years to replicate my Grandma Pat's meatloaf. I tried everything and asked everyone for suggestions. I got lots of great ideas and tried many of them. I even created my own version with an an Italian twist which we love but still crumbled when I sliced it. I just wanted a meatloaf...

4th of July Sewing

Becky 12:00 AM 0 Comments

I have been working on these placements "um gulp" for almost a year. I bought the stuff about two days before last year's 4th of July and had most of them down right away but after the holiday came and went, I stuck them away and with the move of the craft area, they sort of got put to the bottom of the pile. I was going...

Road Trip Recap

Becky 12:00 AM 0 Comments

So I know that many people dread getting in the car for days at a time with kids and think we are crazy to take the toddler and six year old on these long trips. My inlaws joked that they didn't think we would ever make it to Arizona because of the car ride but we did and had an incredible time. One of the mottos we love...

Well you all know my huge love for Pinterest. It has so many ideas. My friend and I who walk every day talk about how much we love the ideas.

The Block of the Month Quilt

I have been working on this mega quilt for nearly two years which added up to countless hours of piecing the blocks together, cutting the sashing and than sewing it. It is far from perfect but it is my real first attempt at something like this. The actual quilt was suppose to be for a queen bed but we have a king so I...
