Easy Make it Yourself Fall Wreath
Crocheting Through the Chilly Blues
Fall is right around the corner, and behind it Old Man Winter is creeping up. Some people might fall into despair when thinking about the snow and freezing cold that will lock us into our houses for days on end. Not us! Instead, we’ve collected some ideas for crafts to keep busy in the dark, cold months ahead.
Toys and Stuffed Animal Storage Ideas

Chocolate likes to get around, though. It can take many dance partners, and I’ll admit: I love all combinations equa-…well, mostly equally.

The heat is rolling in for summer. Your kids are home all day, and when they run around outside all day, they come back hungry. Sure, some part of us longs to toss over a packaged snack and let them fill up on those. Packaged snacks are quick, easy, and don’t ask you to turn on the oven when July humidity sets in.
Thankfully, there are many creative mommies out there who have dedicated time to finding those healthy, yummy, and most of all easy snacks. Here are some of my current faves:
