I have been busy the last week or so preparing product for the 3rd annual Renegade Craft Fair here in Austin. The show will be May 19-20th, so if you are in town you should come out and shop. It is free to get in and there will be tons of cool handmade merchandise to […]

Yes! That is right! Biscoff Apple Pie Donuts!   You remember a month or so ago when I made the Gourmet Peach Donuts? Well, tonight I had another can of biscuit dough just calling to made into donuts. To make these donuts I made the cinnamon and sugar coated donuts just like the peach ones, […]

  Well, the tomatoes are ripening in my garden mighty quick right now and I have been eating them non stop. I think I may give a few to my mom and sister soon so that I don’t waste them. But in the meantime I made this delicious open faced sandwich today on a toasted […]

The other day while I was grocery shopping I found these little packets in the baking aisle called frosting creations. I figured I would try them out, and decided on the cotton candy flavor packet. I just finished making some yummy, but very sweet cupcakes with it. I wanted to post some pictures for you […]

Look at the goodies I harvested today! Lots of green beans, black berries, and tomatoes. Tomorrow for lunch I think I will make a green bean and tomato sauté with caramelized onion. And those black berries, those are gone. Madeline could barely wait for me to take this photo. How is your garden growing?

Yay! I finally got my new shipment of laptop bags in today. While most of the shipment was reorders of other bags that I already have for sale, I did get in one new bag design. This is the Green Circles Casual Laptop Tote: What do you think! Isn’t it pretty! If you want to […]

Remember how I mentioned the other day that I made a strawberry and rhubarb pie to take to my friend’s house? Well, I also made some mini poptarts with some of the strawberry rhubarb filling and extra pie dough. Aren’t they cute!?   To make these little treats you will need the following: Refrigerated Pie […]

Well, I am finally making good on my offer to show you another photo frame craft idea. First I found a nice large frame with about a 2″ flat surface to paint on. I then free handed a swirly design on the frame with some puff paint and let that dry overnight. Please pardon the […]

Here is a quick photo of today’s mini harvest. My tomatoes are starting to ripen and I have been eating the delicious little guys on all my salads. Tomorrow these are going into a mint, cucumber, and tomato salad. Tonight we are going over to our friends house and I made a strawberry rhubarb pie […]

This morning Madeline and I headed to the local farmers market with my dad and Kingston. I guess I picked a good day to go, because they had some fun activities for kids. Home depot was there with free kids crafts like making a wood car, bird feeder, window planting box, and wood helicopter. The […]

I love granola bars, because they are such an easy snack when I am hungry, but most of the granola bars that you find in the grocery store are full of sugar, or have dairy added (which Madeline can’t have), or peanuts (again which Madeline can’t have). Since Madeline can have tree nuts, there are […]

Seriously, I love eggs so much! Give me eggs over easy and a piece of toasted, buttered French bread and I am a happy girl. For breakfast today I made a spinach, onion, potato, and bacon frittata. Now I am not actually sure if it was a true frittata, but I think that is what […]
