My kids are always drawing. So, I thought this would be a great thing to review since my kids really love producing little sketches. Now, I didn’t say they were going to be fabulous painters or become known for their work. They just love to draw. There is this company called Junior Monet that takes your child’s drawing and puts it onto wonderful

I was planning a day to have some friends over for brunch. At about the same time, Triscuit asked me to review their new brown rice & wheat crackers that’s baked in real food ingredients.

I bought a new comforter set for my bedroom. It has been 12 years since I’ve bought a new comforter set. I’m sure the only reason I did was because my husband kept complaining that I needed to change the set that has been on the bed forever. Now, this isn’t my first attempt at trying to buy one. It’s just that when I bought

What do you do when you have too many potatoes and you don’t want them to go bad? You have a potato-cooking day! That’s exactly what I did.

For my daughter’s birthday, she bought a foam hand soap at Dollar Tree. She loves this store. My child takes after me. She loves getting the most for her money.

My daughter will become a Cadette next year. So, I decided to make her Junior vest into a pillow that she could keep on her bed to remember the memories.

Today, I decided to make homemade biscuits. Let me just say that I do not like thick biscuits. I’m the person that would cut out some of the middle of the biscuit if it has too much bread in the middle. It’s obvious that I like the top of the biscuit and the bottom of the biscuit. So, I have perfected this biscuit recipe to make it a thinner

I am always trying to keep the house smelling nice and it is definitely not an easy task. The one place that I would like an ongoing nice scent is the closet, specifically my bedroom closet. It is a walk-in closet that seems to lose the scent that I place inside of it quite quickly. Replacing air fresheners on a regular basis can get quite expensive. So,
Medicine Cabinet Makeover!
May 11, 2013 by 25 Comments
If you’re like me, then you rarely go in your medicine cabinet. The only time I open this cabinet is when I would like to put on perfume some days, throw on a little makeup or use the scissors to trim my hair. The very reason I hate to open the cabinet is because stuff is always falling out when I’m reaching in for something. So, of course I try
