Yet another crazy few days...

  So it has been a crazy week. Lots of 2 hr delays for the kids for school and 1 missed day. Crazy and they are forecasting one day next week for it to hit 70 and then plumit the next day back to the 20s.


I found a cool new counter today to use on my ipad as I do my crafts. Just using the free version for now to see how well I like it before I pay for it with multiple counters.




This weekend thru today I have been making mittens. 5 pairs total so far.









I also decided to join the Yarnspirations 2015 Mystery Afghan along. I look forward to seeing what this makes. If your interested in joining as well just go take a look by clicking on the link. You can knit or crochet either one.  Also Michael from The Crochet Crowd .

Week 1 video if you wanna see. I can't wait are you going to join in?

Weekend baking heaven...

So while hubby had the kiddos outside Saturday I made some totally awesome cinnamon rolls. They loved them and all I heard was groans of happiness. Finally after many tries we have a recipe that will be made many time for years to come.

So here they are fresh from the oven...


ok then you have to add the icing...



then to plate and eat.

So if you likes the look of these and want to give them a try head on over to Natalie's page for the  1 hour cinnamon rolls recipe as well as many other tasty looking treats.

Feb. 7 2015

   So we are 38 days into 2015 and I finally feel like I am becoming the old me again. So how are you all do this year so far, good I hope.

  I restarted my weight loss this year and so far since Jan. 1st I have lost 4 pounds. Not to bad and hopefully I can keep it going this time. I feel so behind in making videos and writing blogs that it isn't even funny. It is ok though cause I will be working on some of both soon.


 I have spent the past few days working on cleaning. I got this really cool set of serving platters and 2 Campbells soup bowls from our local Salvation Army. Well I decided when I got this that since I was bringing in a new set that something else had to go so that it what I am doing.

I got these.....







and I am so far getting rid of these.....







I am by no means done with pulling things to get rid of. It is just that time again and I am getting rid of what I won't use or just haven't used in over a year. I think that is my goal this year, if I get something new that is big then I need to get rid of 1 or more things.

Well I would love to stay and write some more because man I know I could but I need to go try making some cinnamon rolls and some bread and who knows what else. Might start making some food blogs soon too as well as other crafty ones.
