I recently had a Pinterest party where a bunch of us gathered and crafted together. I love to craft and be social so if course combining the two was great. I had five projects for the group to do.
We folded this nifty bag from this pin.
The card was inspired from this pin.
I have been wanting to...

I have been seeing tons of adorable banners for Valentine's Day on Pinterest and I dug through my stash of stuff and pulled out my roll of burlap. I cut out the banner pattern from a piece of white paper and than cut out six of the them from the burlap.
Using my Big Shot, I die cut the scallop hearts and the cream hearts...

Lately I have been homesick for foods that I just can't seem to get down here in Texas (they have their own strange version). Last week I was so craving my Dad's awesome fish fry's so I went out and got the closest fish possible and fried it up for fish baskets with everyone.
This week I was really craving Clam Chowder...

My son LOVES Cars and anything related to Cars. When we watched the Rose Parade he squealed in delight when he saw the huge float and lost it when Mater came out.
For Christmas his Grandparents got him the huge Cars shaped race car bed. His words the moment he saw it was "perfect". So I have been trying to move his room...

I found on the web this adorable idea to bind all your holiday cards together and make a cute cover for them. I usually keep the cards with a idea that I will do some craft but that never happens. This was easy and quick- about 20 minutes to pull it together and most of that was threading ribbon through. Now we have...

Last week at the grocery store they had a meal deal where if you bought the pre made ground bet, you got a bunch of free stuff. I sort of forgot about the cooked ground beef until I ventured into the fridge and found it. It wasn't expired which was good so I thought what could I make with it. I dug around the pantry (it...

Yes I am "that" person who likes to decorate the tree for the holidays. I was taking down the peacock christmas tree and decided that I liked having the tree up so I decided to do it all up for Valentine's Day.
I got a bunch of stuff at the dollar store and than found adorable charm packs of fabric and knew they screamed...

In a few weeks, I am doing my first Pinterest Party where everyone brings a dish to share and I am supplying some fun crafts inspired from the site. I have been populating a board all about this and love the fact my guests are also adding their ideas into the mix.
The two previews were fun to make.
The first is a bag...

I love owls and a few of you know that. I actually have an adorable 9 year old friend who is always on the look out for owls and tells me when she finds a cute one.
I have been seeing this owl purse on Pinterest but it only links to a pattern already sold but I got this quilting catalog this week and low and behold...

If you remember back in February, I cleaned out and reorganized our pantry. I actually had people come over to look at it for ideas. For the most part it stayed clean and I was happy with how it looked. I did need to periodically go in and straighten it out.
Than in September the first bad thing happen when the master...

I made a turkey for Christmas and there was a bunch left so I decided to make turkey pot pie from it. I made two pies and froze both to be used at later time.
I took about two cups of turkey and chopped that up (Chicken can also be used).
I heated up my dutch oven with some olive oil and added in both the turkey and...

So Kit came to live with us over the holidays. My daughter went back and forth about who she wanted and we all told her she looks so much like Kit that is who she should get so of course when we finally got to the store to have tea, she asked sheepishly when Kit was coming home with her. Well Nana came through and Kit...
