Have you Discovered Menchies?

Eric and I have heard rave reviews of this place called Menchies. Most of the youth on Facebook talk about this place All. The. Time.

We hadn't made a pilgrimage yet, and Miss Lauren and Miss Sarah thought that was kind of a crime of sorts. So we arranged a trip to Menchies with these girls and wow.

Not only was the company wonderful, the frozen yogurt was delish, and that's because you can put as many toppings on it as you'd like - then, they weigh it and you pay for it! It's a self serve type situation, and you can get as crazy as you want! I had Dulce De Leche yogurt with chocolate covered sunflower seeds, heath bar, brownie bites, waffle cone and caramel sauce. YUMMM. I love being able to pile my sundae high with goodies!

Thanks for the laughter and the love Sarah & Lauren, good luck at school ladies!
We love you!

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it! I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
