Catch Up

So there is some catching up I need to do. I have vowed to really put some time into this blog for the new year...and I am going to get an early start beginning with today. Since my last post we have had halloween, thanksgiving, and 3 birthdays. This is a pair of mittens and scarf that I made for my craft groups holiday party white elephant game. I used this tutorial for the mittens.

Boy Am I Hungry

I normally cook dinner every night and tonight was no different. Pork Loin, Green Beans, and Parmasean Rice. I just think it tastes better when it looks pretty. What do you think?

De Ja Vu

I know I have been gone for a while, but when you decide to go back to school, keep a full time job, and have 4 kids, life is a little complicated. I am just starting to get into the swing of managing it all soooooo I am back. I dont know how much crafting will be going on but we'll see.

I'd like to start my return with my thrifty find of the week.

Eames House of Cards...yeahhh babbby...All there and in excellent condition, and did you catch that price...thats 1.99. I am happy.

Movie Monday...

I know, I know it's Tuesday, but thats better than wednesday, so here it goes.....

I must admit that I have seen this movie more than once, but I like it. I think it speaks to alot of topics, relationships, motherhood, poverty. When you have children at a young age and then your relationship falls apart sometimes there is a struggle between being a mother and wanting to still be young. Sometimes this situation can leave you in poverty and you can run away or you can deal with it. I think watching this will teach us alot of different lessons including responsibility and that more is sometimes just more-not quality.

Movie Monday on errr Wednesday

So the excitement of the 4th has totally made me forget about movie Monday, so we will have it today Wednesday instead....

I really liked this movie and I must admit the first time I saw the preview I was like um "no". I got over it and watched it anyway. It really made me appreciate my family and the time we spend with each other. It also made me appreciate my heritage just that much more.

Something New "Movie Monday"

In an effort to keep up with posting until my camera resurfaces. I have decided to do a movie Monday of sorts. I am going to review movies that I watch over the weekend. These are just my opinions, and you may or may not like them, but I always say see for yourself. I will watch just about anything, as I don't really have a favorite type of movie, I just like movies. So this weekend I finished up the series....

It was "hero"-esque, but the acting wasn't the best. Somehow I was still drawn to watch the whole series. It was interesting enough to keep me coming back. So, I'd have to say if there was a season 2, I'd watch it.

I'm So "ETSY"ITED

Well after months and months of procrastination I have finally listed some stuff on etsy, and I sold something.....so many thanks go out Pastry. I hope you like it.
