{Home & Garden} Linen Storage Tips ~ GIVEAWAY!

I love the laundry tips that you have all been sharing over the past few weeks! Definitely a plus to being a part of Arm & Hammer's Switch & Save Challenge! If you've missed any laundry room tips, you can find them both in the posts and comments, HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE! A couple recent ones that I thought were both cute & good ideas... Miranda shared: "My favorite...

Whatcha got hidden in YOUR dishes??

One of the toughest things for me to get used to once all the Littles joined us, was clutter. (Although lack of time and sleepless nights are pretty high up there too...). But my brain goes a little manic with clutter. I have always been able to deal with the craziness of life, if my room or "home base" was picked up and put together. Yeaaaa, that doesn't work so...

Want to know about that hole in the wall?

So I kinda hinted to that hole in my wall a few posts ago. It's been fun. Yep, fun. Poor hubs, he really has tried to get this project completed and tied up in a neat little bow, but there's this thing called life, and well, he has just not been able to give it all the time he had hoped he could. Bizarre to think this all started last...

incorporating good design into family living

Let's go with a little design today. I meant to share this article AGES ago. The back log of posts I need to write is overwhelming to say the least, but I'm trucking through one day at a time. Today I thought I would share a space I saw in House Beautiful in their August issue I believe (And BTW, I love when the article is also online! So easy...

More than just a drive thru…

Do not laugh. Yes, YOU! Who else is reading this blog?? Want to know how I get the trash out of my car? I certainly don't carry it into the house, because then I would be dropping it in the kitchen trash... Which gets taken to the outdoor side trash... Which then gets rolled out to the street, right past my car once a week (and sometimes hubs does stop...

a helpful reminder

Having little helpful reminders are good. Goodness knows with each pregnancy I clearly lost more brain cells than I ever started with, so now I pretty much know nothing, and remember nothing. Case in point, packing for my trip with the girls I made a quick dash out to the car to get something. My running shoes were also outside by the stroller. I put them on the front doormat...

great pack ‘n go snack!

The day I started shopping at Trader Joe's I think a whole new world opened up to me! (isn't that a line in a movie???) One of my, OK my husband's favorite snacks, (because mine would the chocolate peanut butter cups...just sayin') is the individual packages of almonds. If you can have a snack pack of chips, raisins, and crackers, why not almonds?? The "Just a handful" individual packages are...

tab it baby ~ part 2

A few months ago, I wrote about my new favorite organization tool that let me make up a project binder just the way I wanted it I use this binder every hour of every day! But what makes this binder work is the awesome removable tabs. I am WAY BEYOND IN LOVE with these tabs... My newest way to use them is in my Flat Belly Diet Family Cookbook. Because...

back to basics ~ master closet

A few weeks ago I had one of those moments you see in cartoons where the character yells so loud and so long that the whole world around him FREEZES. You know what I'm talking about. When water shooting out of a fire hydrant freezes in mid shoot... The person jumping is somehow suspended indefinitely in his jump.... The world just stops and stares at the source of the yell...
