The Pictures I Took Today

I mean honestly, not a single good shot?  I took like 20.  I guess that’s how it goes sometimes.  So glad that tomorrow is Friday, I need a nap. Read the rest of this entry »

A Few Things

My house is a mess.  It’s totally covered with toys and baby gear.  To the gills it is.  You can’t take a step in here without stepping on something small and pointy.  That’s at least partly because I bought a bag of small pointy toys on Saturday.  I took Chase to the thrift store and let her pick some things.  It was fun but I’m starting to question whether or not it was a good idea after all.   Read the rest of this entry »

I Won’t Mention It Again

Two hours ago I was bone tired and ready to pack it in.  Instead of going to bed I stayed up late to eat cake and figured I’d pop in here for a minute.  I promise this is the last batch of tie dye.  They’re a gift for a new wee little babe that’s on the way.   Read the rest of this entry »

The End Of Ugly Gliders

So Erin totally called me out on my empty promise to write up a tutorial for how to recover the cushions on a glider.  I kind of do that all the time.  But, I’m officially taking a break from my tie dye to write this.   Read the rest of this entry »

Still Dyeing

I may or may not be totally addicted to dyeing fabric.  I may or may not have made more shirts today.  I had to work out some patterns I thought I could get a handle on and although it didn’t work out exactly as I planned it was still fun.   Read the rest of this entry »

I Dye

…you dye, we all dye for tie dye?  Too corny?  Sorry.  So this was our experiment today.  I flat out stole the idea for this project from my neighbor BUT desperate times call for desperate measures.   Read the rest of this entry »

The Last Piece

I’ll admit, at first I was ambivalent about this recipe.  I felt bad because my friend Erin suggested it to me and I didn’t love it.  I don’t know what I was thinking. Read the rest of this entry »

Iron-On Dottie Patches!

So when Shannon asked me to test drive her new patches for her I played it cool.  Sure, I said but what I was thinking was… O.M.G. YES! Of course I will!  Let me at ‘em!  Well, maybe I did say that but it’s only because honestly, who in their right mind would turn down an opportunity to have just a little more Sweet Pepita in their lives?  Honestly.   Read the rest of this entry »

The Verdict

Not that Starbucks needs anyone to write a plug for them but I thought you might want to know.  I like it.  I asked for a sample of their new instant iced coffee and sure enough the lady gave me one.

I mixed it up at home and was pleasantly surprised.  I think it’s even better than the hot instant.  At first I thought I wish we’d been able to bring this camping but my next thought was no, I’d have needed ice.  However, upon further consideration, I realize that I had plenty of ice when we went camping and plenty of cold water.  Not only that but the sugar is already mixed in so that would have been one less tiny container to transport.  It’s also good and totally drinkable without milk.

In my opinion, the most important consideration in planning a camping trip is where the coffee’s going to come from and I like to have options.
