I made two sets of these scrubbers/pot holders/dish rags for a family gift exchange. The pattern was really easy and enjoyably repetitive. I’m not the fastest crocheter, so I could finish one i...

Labyrinth for Mother’s Day, a photo by NurseJulie on Flickr. I really enjoyed making this labyrinth. I like to think it was as calming to stitch as it is to trace for meditation. Also, I love a...
This past October I wrote about feeling bored with my blog and needing to refocus. I tried to return to my original intention of The Ideal Me, but I just feel like the sentiment is just not where I...
I’m tired of that sinking feeling that accompanies the question, “What’s for dinner?” I’ve committed to making weekly menus and reporting on how cooking for the week went. So...
Yes. That title sounds pretty pretench somehow. Lately I’ve been eating too many refined carbs. Bread and butter people. Lots of pasta. Tasty and carb-o-licious. It wouldn’t be such...

I’m a little crazy over pumpkins. I have to work really hard to resist buying anything and everything pumpkin related. Stoneware, embroidery patterns, pumpkin flavored pasta, that evil pumpkin...

I’ve learned a lot this first year tending a garden. It takes daily work, interest, and love. When you lose sight of what you’re doing, your plants won’t produce. I̵...

After two weeks of menu planning, I backslid. No menu this week. It wasn’t the best week of food, but it was a reminder why Menu Mondays are so important. Here is what we actually ate. Monda...
I learned a few things from menu planning this week. Having a plan is helpful, and I didn’t feel completely unprepared. If the grocery store doesn’t have the core ingredients I need for a...

Thank goodness for a decently stocked pantry. We are having homemade chicken and stars for dinner. That’s what happens when someone in our family gets sick. I make chicken soup. Luckily I hav...
Like I said yesterday, I’ve committed to make weekly menus and report on how things went. April’s “Lunch Time” posts over at So Yeah…So inspired me to make this a recur...
I am not the best menu planner. I’ll make a menu for a week or so, and then, well…some nights getting dinner on the table is a bit of a pain. Last Monday I decided to make a menu and see...

Today was my first guest post for So Yeah…So. This blog is about April and her daughter Maya’s adventures in fashion and life in the Midwest. This is one of my favorite blogs right now, a...

For about one month the azaleas in our yard are in bloom. I love that month. Posted in In our garden
Lately, I’ve been quite off center. After a busy month and a half full of reiki, event planning, and dancing (and a distinct lack of posting) I became rather off balance. Now I’m returni...
So, after reading my last post a fellow by the name of Doug sent me an email about buygreen.com. Here’s a little bit of what he had to say: What makes us unique is we apply our proprietary Gre...
