Tucker did something right!

I went to meet Tucker (Kay and Melvin's dog) offspring on Sunday. One day one of these little pups will come to live with me...

Because Jen is too lazy to find me on pinterest

I told my coworker Jen wanted to try out these great energy snacks that I found on Pinterest but she was to lazy about finding me on pinterest and said that I should put them up on my blog for her.  They are a great snack when you are a little bit hungry or need an energy boost before Zumba Kay!  So here you go Jen. Enjoy!!

1 cup oatmeal 1/2 cup peanut butter (or other nut butter) 1/3 cup honey 1 cup coconut flakes 1/2 cup ground flaxseed 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips 1 tsp vanilla 

Proudest moment yet!!

This is what I undertook today!! It only took me 6 hours!! I bought the ottoman for 25 bucks and got the fabric for 3 bucks a meter... It's not perfect but not too bad for a beginner! On a side note I also made a crock pot dinner and homemade buns. A productive day! Sorry the before picture is so crapy !

My new pride and joy!

I love a good "find"! After finding this gem at my favourite stores walked away.... Then I couldn't stop thinking about it. I even made my coworker Mira go during our lunch to pick it up so that no one else would buy it. Not too sure where it's final resting place will be but for now it will stay where I can continue to fall in love with it!

A secret...

I secretly like to organize things. Don't get me wrong i don't have a super organized house just once in a whole I catch the bug. Today's project was to make over my entry closet. It is right at my kitchen that has limited cupboard space so I was glad to move some stuff over to the closet. There is a patch job needed where I ripped of the old shelf but I save those projects for my dad;) Here are the before and after shots:

Sometimes I cook food

Thanks pinterest for these yummy and healthy spinach bites! Here is the pinterest picture and my version..,

Love these guys!

Thanks for the hangout!

An evening can sure change things up!

In the course of on evening the living room curtains took quite a transformation. I love the new fabric I stumbled upon!

If only my brothers would give me more nieces!!

When you have 2 weeks off of work, have no kids an live alone you need projects to fill your time. Don't get we wrong it has been good to turn off my "teacher brain" for a bit but sometimes I get bored! So today I completed a quilt I was going to make just in case my brother and sister-in-law had a girl but they had a boy so they get a blue one I made last year. Here are the results of today's boredom...
