Gift Wrapping

Anyone who knows me knows I love to wrap gifts. Just scored this leopard wrapping paper for $1.50 and these adorable Timree cards (6/$1.50) at Michaels. I love leopard mixed with green, but these glittered cards are too cute!

Would you even care what's inside if someone gave you something wrapped like this? Happy Monday! 

50 Shades of (Yawn) Grey

Leave it to me to start blogging again when the 50 Shades trailer was released.  Personally, not what I had in mind.  I even watched it twice (okay..maybe 4 mmm 5 times) hoping I might have missed the part that would make my heart skip a beat.  Nope...nothing. I take that back, the elevator kiss was amazing.  Do I really have to read the books again to get my heart racing?  Let's hope the movie "enlightens me."  Here is the cast that I had in my head when I read the books.........twice. (don't judge)

Glitter Pumpkins

I live in Florida and it is still pretty hot here so carving pumpkins doesn't happen until later October.  I just saw this adorable idea on Nest of Posies for painting your pumpkins a fun color and using Modge Podge to glitter the stems.  Perfect weekend fun with the kiddos....actually, I would be doing this even if I didn't have kids.

Barefoot Contessa

My girls love to cook (almost as much as I do).  All of Ina Garten's cookbooks are my "go to" books for any recipe.  All of her recipes are fabulous and all 3 of my kiddos have pulled up a chair at the stove and have read recipes with me from almost all of her cookbooks.  I recently found these pictures of the girls when we were making her chocolate chunk cookies.  Looks like these pictures were taken back in 2005 because my 3rd wasn't even born yet...which made me the Barefoot and Pregnant Contessa.  Someday I will have a little market of my own...just like Ina.  Happy Cooking!
