What I’m Into {February 2015}
February kind of flew by thanks to it being a short month coupled with the fact that we had a bunch of snow days near the end. We had made it all winter without any snow days and then on President’s day it seemed like winter had officially started just when we were beginning to think about spring. I love…
Letter C Preschool Activities
It has been several months since I last posted any alphabet preschool activities. I started strong in the fall with letter A and letter B posts and then I stopped. The main reason I quit posting alphabet ideas was because I found the job of going through all of my old posts too tedious for…

My birthday was last week and my mom made me my very own pecan pie. It was so good that I may have eaten the whole thing by myself, spread out over several days of course. She probably wanted me to share it. Oh, well. Anyway, my mom makes the best pecan pie and usually makes it…

Stevia Sweet Tea (Sugar-Free)

Party Food: DIY Personal Pizza
I love planning for and hosting parties. I don’t do it very often but, when I do, it is always fun. So, when two of my oldest and dearest friends planned to visit over Christmas, I went into full-on planning mode. I try to do a different theme every year when they visit. One year it was a…

What to Do When You Feel Like Complaining
A couple of days ago I was outside feeding our animals dressed in coveralls, a coat, a hat, and gloves. Even with all of those layers I was frozen. The air was so cold that my cheeks felt like someone had slapped them and my nose was so numb I wasn’t sure it would ever…
