Dear Reader– I have had this problem for some time… Ya see, my washer lid would never stay open since I have cabinets directly above it… But, my Puddie came up with this FABULOUS idea to help keep it open while I move clothes from washer to dryer… This doo dad… I think it is...

As some of you may know, I have had this incredible pain in my neck for the last couple days… and, I ain’t talkin’ about Puddie 😉 I think I slept on it wrong, whatever that means… seriously, why doesn’t our body wake us up and say yo… sleepin’ beauty, roll over or you are...

Bloggy Recipe Cards

Cris — Tue, 04 May 2010 16:08:00 +0000

My friend Whitney asked me the other day if I had a way of printing my recipes that didn’t involve replacing ink cartridges due to all the photos (my words–not hers ;)). So, I began diggin’ and didn’t really find many solutions that didn’t involve learning a lot of HTML code… Then it occurred to...

Cris — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 04:11:00 +0000

My gal hearts her bubbles. No. Really. She’d rather be bubblin’ than almost anything else. So, when I saw what the store wanted to charge me for a bunch of soapy water, I got inspired by Ms. Shannon over at Quarry Orchard with all her DIY household recipes. I decided to do some online research...

Lil’ McAddie’s Farm – Pt. 1

Cris — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 03:34:00 +0000

Recently one of my readers asked about the painted fence in Ms. Add’s room… The fence is a part of the farm scene I painted while we were expecting Miss Add. I painted the room over two VERY snowy days in February. I heart painting. I really should do it more. There is something liberating...

This weekend Miss Add and I got down to the business of some plate decoratin’ I saw the idea in one of my cookbooks while prepping for FREEZE-O-RAMA. So when Add and I went shoppin’, we stopped by Michaels and grabbed some porcelain paint pens with our 40% off coupon. Note: Make sure you get...
