Last week I posted about meal planning. And in that post I said I have a list of meals that we regularly rotate through (kind of like our go-to meals that everyone eats and likes) hanging on my fridge that I use to look through when I'm planning out our weekly dinner menu. I said in that post that I'd bet if you sat down and listed the meals you make regularly you'd come out with about 25. I got lots of emails and comments about this. Some of you had quite a few more than 25 and others of you ... View the Post

On Halloweens Past….
(I found this handmade clown costume at a garage sale this summer and fell in love. The yellow is polyester awesomeness, and someone took a lot of time to make it.

We came up with a hobos, scarecrows, ghosts with good 'ole sheets thrown over our heads, a bag of jellybeans (garbage bag with ... View the Post
Lace Back T-shirt Tutorial
This was an unintended project. Yesterday after preschool I was wiped out and so were the kids. Simon was still at school and Grace and Ruth both fell asleep which means I suddenly found myself with some time alone. And what did I do with that time to myself? Catch up on laundry? Clean out my closet? Take a nap? No way. I made Grace the lace back t-shirt that I have been wanting to make her for weeks. (I love quiet sewing time.) Here's what I did: #1. I gathered my supplies.

A game of Clue.
I shared this dress a couple of weeks ago over at Louise's "Sew Ready to Play" Game series....where we were asked to sew something based on our favorite game.***********************************************************************One of my favorite games growing up was the game CLUE. It was just so thrilling to move around the game board, going into mansion rooms and then taking those tiny weapons (those were so cool) to make "who dunnit" predictions until one person got to open that mystery ...

On Mending (Part 2)
Back in April I wrote this post about mending. This weekend I thought again about mending...about how sometimes things take longer than planned...about how much we take for granted. Since writing my last post I've "passed off" all that I needed to in my physical therapy...and have started running again.I have to admit that I cried the first time I went running again. (I know...I know..it's ridiculous to cry about running but the more you get to know me the more ridiculous you see that I am.) So ... View the Post
