Friend Makin' Monday

Kasey over at All That is Good has set up this fun "getting to know your fellow bloggers" activity. I decided I want to get to know all of you, and I'm just sure you feel the same way about me! To play along, go here.

This week's answers:

1) My favorite book is: Too many to name. Off the top of my head - The Book of Mormon, The Lottery Rose, I love David McCullough's work, The Barrington Family Saga Series, One in Thine Hand... I could go on and on.

2) I drive a: minivan - woo hoo!

3) My favorite type of food to eat is: I seriously have to pick just one? Anything spicey.

4) My favorite dessert is: cheescake from Cheesecake Factory.


5) My favorite movie is: chick flick: Just Like Heaven, when I'm in the mood for some action (not that kind - get your minds out of the gutter!) I love the National Treasures, and anything Harrison Ford.

6) When I go to Starbucks I get a: I don't drink coffee - hence, no Starbucks!

7) My favorite vegetable is: I like fresh picked peas.

8) My favorite thing to wear is: P.J. bottoms and a comfy T-shirt.

9) My favorite color is: Wow. Pink? Or maybe Red...Yellow...Bright Green, anything bright and happy.

10) I decorate my house in this style: hmm, well I have to say my house doesn't really have a "style" It's the way the house came, mixed with all the hand-me down furniture I have inherited these past 13 years of marriage! But I'm working on developing a style! Stay tuned to see it emerge!

11) Right now I am reading: A Quiet Promise by Anita Stansfield

12) If I could vacation anywhere I would go to: New York. I'd love to do the city, shopping, Broadway, etc. I'd also like to go visit the upstate church historical sights.

Hi! Visiting from Kasey's. Those pictures are so pretty.
I am soooo a National Treasure fan. The first one is my all time favorite movie. It took over for A League of Their Own.

Hi Xazmin! I loved reading your list. I love spicy food and New York too (I grew up upstate by Palmyra). I love to go New York and shop and see the shows. Good choice!

Those cheesecakes look scrumptious!Have a good night!

I do like Mary Higgins Clark also. I haven't read any of her new books but I really enjoyed her old ones.

I'm down with the spicy foods and New York trip! I'm not down with your no coffee self! Whatever do you obsess over, if you don't drink coffee?

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t...

Mod Podge to the Rescue

Have you noticed that eggs and nests seem to be a common theme in home decor - especially with people making some decor changes for spring? I've seen some pretty cute stuff! For example - what do you think of these? If you like this look, you can get it at Williams-Sanoma. You'll pay $36 for the eggs, and $68 for 1 glass hurricane. They don't include the greenery! Sheesh! Maybe you could go online and find the whole look, already put together, like this: You'll pay $39 for that teeny one, and if you'd like a larger one - you'll shell out $89! Good thing I'm the Queen of Mod Podge! Remember this beauty that I found at the DI for $5? Well, I gathered up my trusty mod podge, the left over scrap book paper from this project, some plastic eggs that I got for 79 cents at Walmart, and a bag of moss that was around $2, also from Walmart. I mod podged the eggs closed so they wouldn't pop open while I was working with them, then I cut the scrapbook paper into ...
