Let me just say, I love Easter. I have since I was a kid. There’s just something about finding a basket full of goodies and running around hunting for eggs. Speaking of eggs, I stepped up my game and have been trying new dyeing and decorating techniques; and I’d like to share a few. Let me preface this by saying I hard boil all my eggs first. You can use whatever method you prefer. I do it the way my … continued…

We’ve all been there before. We’ve got a party to attend and we need to bring a dessert. But what tray do you use? You can use one of your own and ask for it back. You can buy a disposable tray and just leave it. But, why not make your tray the hit of the party! Bake your own tray out of round mint candies. Use it to haul your goodies and then once those goodies have been devoured, … continued…
I like the time around Thanksgiving. Fall is usually giving us a last hurrah, but it’s clear that winter’s coming. For me, it’s a cozy time of year with family and friends. It’s a nice break from the frenzy of Halloween and a chance to breathe before the festivities of Christmas. As far as decorations go, November also offers a bit of ease. In this case a little goes a long way; a few colorful gourds and squashes, a bountiful … continued…
Yes, you can say Halloween is all about the costumes and candy. But, I think it’s the decorations that make it cool! In my house, this is the holiday where my husband loves to join in the planning, executing and enjoying of the decorations. He’s like a kid in a candy store! So, a few years ago, when my mom gave me an article from her Woman’s Day magazine about wine bottle spirits, I jumped at the chance to make … continued…

This is a great way to preserve tender herbs, such as basil and lemon balm. It provides a tasty addition to your menus. You can also use it for homemade holiday gifts. Although it may sound intimidating, making herbal vinegar is easy. Just like a lot of herbal recipes, … continued…
I was looking through July’s calendar with my kids and discovered that this month is National Ice Cream Month and on the 15th it’s National Ice Cream Day. Normally I don’t pay much attention to these designations. But, this seems to be too good to be true. A wonderful excuse to share a cold treat with my kids… and maybe some time for a really cute kid craft! My kids recently took a hand sewing class at Jo-Ann Fabrics and … continued…
