So I thought I’d start another challenge that I came across. Just a bit of fun. I’m coming in a few days late to the game, so I’m skipping the first couple of days. Here’s the complete list of lists. I’m also following another blogger & her lists. Day 3 I’m Looking Forward To… U2 … More 30 Days of Lists – Day 3
Had lots of fun taking pictures of butterflies today at the science center. I was so inspired by these amazing creatures & look forward to making more creations based on them.
We had a great day today – took the boys to the Pacific Science Center. It was heaps of fun. I highly recommend it whether you have kids or not. I do recommend that you take a packed lunch – it’s expensive if you eat in the cafe! We particularly liked the Physics of Bubbles … More The Science of Butterflies
Bit of a whirlwind day yesterday – I had way less time than I hoped to create something. Packing for several days away with two little boys surely counts as doing something creative, right? I did take 15 minutes and drew a little picture. I wasn’t terribly impressed with it as my first creative endeavour of … More 30 Days of Creativity – Day 1
I never thought that I wanted to be a Mom. Then I never thought I wanted to be a stay at home Mom. Along with all that I never thought I would enjoy baking. I’ve changed my mind. I love being a Mom more than I ever thought possible. I love being able to stay home … More Half Baked
My favourite dish at Johnny Carinos is their Italian Nachos. Love it. Since it’s still blustery & cold, my Mom & I decided to make these nachos instead of more traditional Memorial Day fare. I found this recipe online & used it. It was surprisingly simple & the results were wonderful! It is rich & … More Challenge #3 Italian Nachos – Johnny Carinos Copycat
You know how there are some things that just make you feel good? The outfit I wore yesterday is one of those things. I’ve had the dress for years – thrifted sometime, somewhere. I love the colours & the pattern & the fit – it’s made of super comfortable cotton. I shortened it at some point … More I Feel Good!
I haven’t always had great success with beef roasts – even in the crock pot. I think they can get dry & tough very easily. My supermarket often does buy one, get one free deals on roasts though so I usually have one or two on hand. I found this recipe & had to try … More Challenge #3 Super Simple Cranberry Roast
Today I’m wearing my favourite cardigan. It’s from Marks & Spencer in the UK & I’ve had it for at least 15 years. My love for men’s Marks & Sparks cardigans began when I borrowed one from my Dad’s closet while we were living in London. That was it, I had to have one for … More I Miss Marks & Spencer
I’ve been busy the past few days organizing! Shocking I know. Seems like I’m always working on some get tidy project. I’ve come to realize, sadly, that it’s never a one-off event. Life, kids, stuff happens & the organized spaces of our lives get jumbled again. I can deal with that. One of my motivations … More Highland Feathers
