I haven't been able to eat much in the way of "tasty" food for months now, both before and after my gallbladder removal. If I eat anything greasy or fatty, I end up in quite a bit of pain and distress. I think it's slowly getting better since my surgery, but my doc says it could be several months before I can eat "normally" again (there is no such thing for me!)
I have said many times that I think I'm happiest when I'm creating something. This could be sewing, crocheting, coloring, painting, whatever. One of my newest loves is painting. I'm not very good at it, but I just love doing it. I recently decided that I'm going to invest a little more in my love of painting and try to do it right. There's a few things you need to paint like a pro, especially if you're using oil based paints, which I have started to do.
Froot Loop got a big "Doll House" for Christmas. He could care less about the doll aspect of it: He wanted to remodel it and put furniture in it as well as wire it up with lights and fans and other electricity. It's going to be a FUN project for us to do together and I'm really looking forward to it.
Oh man, all the homemade baby food. All the pumped breast milk. All the freezer space being taken up by these two. Totally worth it, but man, a lot of work. Here’s two containers that made my life a little easier when I was deep in newborn and baby land.
Happy Wednesday! Here's this week's Wishlist Wednesday, where I share what's at the top of my Amazon Wishlist. This week, in honor of Christmas, I'm sharing this absolutely gorgeous Nativity scene.
Ohhhhh Thanksgiving! One of my FAVORITE parts of Thanksgiving is being with my family. I used to LOVE going to family Thanksgivings where we'd all bring one of our signature dishes and we'd all eat until we were stuffed! (see what I did there?) So, I thought I'd host a Thanksgiving dinner in the blogosphere, where we all bring a dish or two to a virtual Thanksgiving dinner! Enjoy!
Halloween, that holiday where you get a million little kids all dressed up as monsters and Spongebob and fairy princesses knocking at your door all asking for candy!!! However, perhaps you don't want to give MORE candy, perhaps you would like to give a little trinket instead. I got ya covered... here's a list of a bunch of different halloween favors you can give those little cuties instead of more sweet stuff.
Have you heard of the SkipHop brand? They have the most adorable backpacks and lunch bags and plates and cups and things.
So y'all know that we're huge scifi nuts here in this family. Well, we recently upgraded our sleeping areas, so I thought we should upgrade our sheets and bedding as well.
I’m planning on renovating my downstairs bathroom this year. It has been the same since I painted it back in 2010 when we moved into this house.
