Yoga Pants Out of an OLD T-Shirt!

I was reading Nap Time = Craft Time Blog yesterday and she made these amazing yoga pants out of an old t-shirt.  I was like I can so do that (please keep in mind my sewing skills are maybe one notch above average.)  Straight lines maybe, curves not so much, and decorative stitches not so … Continue reading →

The Mystery Machine Cake

Every year (or almost every year) I bake an anniversary cake for Cobblestone Tours (a friend’s business) and this year the cake was the Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo.  The back story on this cake:  8 years ago Jamie ordered a cake from a local bakery it was suppose to say:  SAVANNAH HAUNTED HISTORY TOUR … Continue reading →

Littlest Pet Shop Twisty Slide…

Anyone who follows this blog knows my daughter has a Littlest Pet Shop Obsession.  This new project takes the cake.  I went to the Dollar Store a couple days ago and saw a LPS Coloring Book, so I got it for her.  She has been talking non-stop about a twisty slide and ladder for her … Continue reading →

UGH!

This past week was a very unproductive week, primarily because I was sick on Wednesday and Thursday.  I have been trying to play catch up and it just hasn’t happened and I don’t foresee it happening in the near future either.  I have also been looking for a specific CD for the past two days … Continue reading →

Well if you have been following the oil spill in the Gulf at all you more and likely have heard of the mythical walrus. The mythical walrus came from BP clean up plans  : “BP’s 582-page emergency-response never anticipated an oil spill as large as the one now gushing on the floor of the Gulf … Continue reading →
