You know when you are sick when….. You wake up and you have replaced cuddling your Teddy Bear with your Tissue for blowing your nose. This may or may not have happened to me 😝😝

Gift Wrapping
One of my favourite parts of going to a wedding is the gift and how I wrap it. I have done gift baskets to using a boa as stuffing around the gift. I know that typically the presentation gets destroyed within minutes but I still love doing it. Plus I like having the pretty present in the pile. And who knows, maybe when I get married I will take pictures and put them in an album of all the pretty wrapped gifts. So at my latest wedding I had a really great idea for wrapping my gift. I documented it […]

My Memory
A poem, I have a really bad memory I can’t remember anything, even yesterday Memory is such a skill that I do flop I leave things there and leave things here. Though I have nothing to fear As long as I don’t forget my pants and top. By Me.
Easy Baked Perogies and Vegetables
So here is an easy recipe that I did today. I was going to make fried perogies, when I found this suggestion on the back of my Cheemo Perogies. On the package it suggested to bake the Perogies in a soup or pasta sauce. So I decided to do it in a soup. Below is my first try at it this that turned out pretty good. Ingredients: Perogies Frozen Vegetables 1 Can of Cream of Mushroom Soup (use only half can water) Shredded Cheddar Cheese Directions: Heat oven to 350°F Take a baking dish (I use glassware) , put in […]
Define my Creative Terms
My line of art is photography. I am in no way a professional but I really enjoy it. Overall though I appreciate all arts. I appreciate artists that make custom jewelry that sells on the street to the greats like Leonardo da Vinci. I think that everyone one has the potential for being creative and being artistic. Even if it’s only a stick figure or sticking your right foot in and shaking it all about. You have to use your wonderful human brain (Right/Left brain and synapses) to do those things. I have been going to Color Me Mine a […]

Ingredients: 1 shot of whiskey about cup of BBQ sauce 2 tsp of Minced garlic So I mixed the above and put about 4 tablespoons of the mixture with 3 pieces of chicken thighs in a ziplock bag. (The leftovers I put in other bags and with other chicken, to […]
Project Completed: Squeaky Clean
Lately I have been really into Pinterest. The only problem is I actually don’t end up doing anything I pin. So I decided to put my mind to it and finally do a project! Project: Make your own cleaner! So instead of the typical, vinegar, essential oils and water combination, the twist was you “make your essential oil” as well. In this post is how I went about and did this DIY project. Like a typical science experiment I also put my observations and outcomes, And what I think I should do differently. (I have put the links that I saved […]
How Clean is Your Contigo?
So just a short story today about cleaning my Contigo travel mug. First I love my Contigo. I use it for water and hot beverages. I tend to only drink my hot beverages at a certain temperature, Not Hot but warmer then warm. Well in a paper cup or mug that temperature could only last a minute, BUT with my Contigo it lasts for like an hour. Or at least feels that way. Okay enough with the plug about Contigo, I’m sure you get how I love it. Now on to the story. I used my travel mug the other […]
