Welcome Spring!

Spring Sign Supplies:

Cut felt and arrange the design however you like. I was inspired by a beautiful Easter picture frame. Glue the pieces where you placed them. Glue ribbon to the top of your design allowing for plenty of ribbon to tie to your bar and let dry.

While waiting for your felt art to dry spray paint your wooden bar and let it dry.

Once everything is dry, tie ribbons to your bar.

Hang and enjoy your beautiful welcome sign!

I'm going Nuts!

I just recently read numerous reports about healthy eating habits to promote healthy sleep and great amounts of energy. The best thing is that they all had one thing in common, NUTS! For sleep http://www.webmd.com/ suggests Almonds and walnuts for energy they reccomend pecans and cashews. Great, i was so excited to hear this that i headed straight for my nutty supplier Trader Joes.

Organic Pasta is Not so Great.

This past week I bought some organic pasta. Now i'm not sure if all organic pasta tastes the same but this pasta was mushy and just not good. The texture was miserable in a spaghetti and meat sauce dish! It was like having mashed potatoes formed into spaghetti pasta. I just really woudn't reccomend it for anything other than giving it to your toddler. Sydney loved the sauce and didn't reject the pasta so i'll continue giving it to her. At 4$ and up per bag this product is a total pass especially when you can buy Barilla at $0.86 this one is a no brainer for me. I'm done with the organic pasta i don't care that it's made only from, potato, rice, and soy I'm not interested. Yuck!
