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

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
