Family Favorite
As the fall weather approaches {Hopefully sooner than later} many people think of Crock-Pot cooking. I however, cook in my Crock-Pots weekly. To me the ease of throwing some food in there and having the magical little elves that live with in do all the cooking and then having it ready by dinner makes me want to use them like crazy! I wanted to share one of my families favorite meals to cook in the pots so maybe your family can enjoy them too. Crock Pot Ribs ~Country Style Ribs~Dry spices (I love the McCormick Grill Mates and the Webber ones)~Brown sugar~Salt and pepper to taste~a onion~some Beef Stock~BBQ sauce…

How do you morning??
I love an easy project to work on while I eat my breakfast and wake up. I always have one mindless knitting project and one mindless crochet one going all the time. I find its easier for me to knit in the movies but a mindless crochet gets me thinking more in the morning. I am currently working on another Rainbow Ripple Baby Blanket. Its a free pattern on Ravelry and can be found here. The yarn I am using is the Lion Brand Mandala Baby in the Pixie Hollow color. I wanted to try this out and see which I like more Mandala regular or the Baby. Well its…

Catching up and getting ready for changes.
  Its basically summer here in Alabama, the temps are getting close to the high 80’s already and school will be out in a week for my kids. We are ready for summer and ready for the changes we will be participating in as a family. We are pulling our kids from public school and homeschooling them. I am beyond excited about this decision. I will miss some amazing teachers but we need to do this for our family. We will be starting homeschool in July and I already have so many things planned. This is something the hubs and I talked about before and we just feel it…

Less Time For Chores more Time for Knitting
So I am not sure if you are like me but I would much rather spend my time crafting than doing chores. However, I can not do that. I do however stream line my day to day activities so I can craft more. You can ask any of my friends and I am very OCD and very organized but am so so I can relax more. It works for me and my family. So of the things I do is push myself to get up and get things done. I get all the cleaning and errand chores by 1 pm every day. That means I do not sit down sometimes…

My Dawn in the Forest
Hey guys I hope you have a wonderful Summer. School started back last week and I am late on posting. We have had a very easy going summer despite a constant battle with the heat, wood bees trying to eat my porch and yellow jackets building nest and attacking(see photo of hive I destroyed at the bottom of this post). We (my hubby and I) celebrated our 9 year anniversary. He surprised me with a bag of goodies from my local Yarn store. As for the knitting I was not a Stash Dash Finisher but I got a lot of stash knit it! Do you ever have those times your…

Put some green in your Day
I love my boys but man it is hard to tell them NO! They love watching me make things but everything on my hook they want to keep. I try to make them something each month but since I am still new It takes me longer to make things. I am getting faster though! This hat I made for my smallest took about a day and a half. That includes, meals, playing with the boys, home school and everything that causes me to put it down. I used one of my cute hat displays. I will show those to you in a later post. I used “I love this Yarn”…

Butterfly beanies and breakfast dreams….
What a week, we have a few pretty days here followed by some pretty wet days. Sunday was one of those wet rainy days. I did not mind though, I loved relaxing in my chair with my family watching TV and being snuggled to my queen sized heat blanket…yes my hubby hates it but I love it and all it’s hotness.. Maybe one day I will share a picture of it in all of its hideous glory but for now I will keep it a secret. This week I am still working on making some flowers for my scarf . I am also making a cute baby hat. I love…
