I'm so updated.


I just added a bunch of new gallery images, and a feature on the Delicious Recipe sets.
Hope you enjoy!

even though it's way after Thanksgiving.

For the past few years we've invited other transplants over to share a non-traditional Thanksgiving with us. Each of us makes and brings the food we miss most from eating with family. (We usually have multiple varieties of bread and potatoes. It's GREAT!)

I decided to pair my Sharpie and my Drinking Jar* collections to make glasses that each person could personalize.
It was tons of fun to do, and see. Almost all the colors came off easily in the wash- the blue was the most permanent. (Now you know!)

Here's a few more photos of awesome people, and awesome things they made.

*Drinking Jars are common in my family. I resisted at first, but my love for salsa was providing me with too many opportunities! I have plans for their futures, but I thought I would share my jar harvesting tips. After many hits and misses I found out if I fill the jar with hot water, it will soften the glue and the label falls right off! (Basically.) Yay!

of awesome meds.

Hawaii gave me a cold. I will forgive it, because it was so great to me otherwise.

Back home, we made a Target run and found this amazing collection of first-aid packets. Each is titled after your problem
"Help I can't sleep"
"Help, I have a headache"
and the like.

BUT my favorite part is that each packet has a quirky little quip on the back. If you see them at the store take a minute to read them... the headache one was my favorite (for obvious reasons.)
Help I have a headache does not contain Red Dye #40. If you enjoy dye, you will have to eat it separately.

this kind of freaks me out

Sorry I've been MIA! After visiting the family for the holidays we went to Hawaii, THEN we got back to a snowstorm and ice storm that took down a few of our trees, and our power for 4 days. I'm still trying to catch up on projects- but I have tons of stuff to share!
I promise to give you something sometime. Meanwhile, watch this magic.
