Pop Can Pencil Holders

I’m in love.  With my Diet Dr. Pepper.  This pop has now become an all-time favorite beverage for me.  Nothing can beat this… at least not presently. ;)  Of course, I know diet pop isn’t good for you (nor are any!), but since I don’t have it all that often, my Diet Dr. Pepper is a must for me when I do!

Cinnamon Chips

I just have to share this tasty snack recipe I found on a blog not too long ago.   They are SO good and quick and easy to whip up!  I even made a little no-dairy dip to go with them, by melting a few marshmallows and adding a little almond extract.  Ingredients: 12 corn tortillas (I used flour tortillas) [...]

Congratulations Ryan!

10 Tips to Wake Up Early

As you may already know - I am a “night owl”.  Getting up early is NOT easy for me.  Of course, I always fall in and out of the patterns of sleeping in and waking up early, but I know that once I do wake up early – I love it!  I enjoy those early hours of uninterrupted time, [...]

Old-Fashioned Oatmeal Cookies

The other day I was trying to find a dairy free cookie recipe to make (we are having some dairy issues in our family) along with one that didn’t call for eggs, since we happened to be out at the time.  Well, I found one called Old-Fashioned Oatmeal Cookies and they turned out great! Personally, I’d choose [...]
