Low-Cal Spiked Lemonade
Well, my husband and I have had the first part of the week off, and being home with Kevin and Raya meant I didn’t get anything really crafty done since last week. (I’m not sad at all, it’s been SO nice!!) It does mean that my share today is going to be a very simple… Continue Reading…

Spiked St. Patty’s Day Parfait
So in my monthly cleaning-out-the-cupboards, I found that we have a lot of jello. And when you have a lot of something, you feel pressure to find a way to use it. I have seen a few jello parfaits out there, and I was thinking of making some up for St. Patrick’s Day. In mentioning… Continue Reading…

The Grinch Martini
Oh man, I don’t know about you mamas, but it’s been a long week already. I honestly thought yesterday was Friday. Yeah. I’ve got a way to go! At my house, my baby is getting over her first time being sick, and my husband and I are trying to get ready to host Christmas (provided… Continue Reading…
